There was never a question whether or not Toledo’s offense was going to show up in their season opener, it was always just a matter of when. It took until 12 minutes remained in the second quarter for the Rockets to find the end zone, already down 3-0. But that would be the first of 31 unanswered en route to 556 total yards of offense. It speaks to the quality of your offense when you score 31 and ring up neatly 600 yards of offense, and it still felt like Toledo gave a B+ level performance.
Part of that is likely due to the Red Wolves defense, who held Toledo in check for nearly a quarter and a half.
