Toledo vs Eastern Michigan Game Preview
Why Toledo Will Win
How fast can the Rockets get past the setback loss to Buffalo?
The offense was well balanced, the defense wasn’t awful, and … six turnovers. That’s how Toledo lost 34-27, and it’s not going to do that again.

The Rockets are 1-3 on the road, but they’ll get enough offensive balance to get out of this alive.
