When the University of Toledo football team faces Ohio University on Wednesday, it will be a matchup of two of the most consistently successful programs in the Mid-American Conference in the last decade.
In fact, since Frank Solich took over as head coach of Ohio in 2005, the Bobcats are 95-69 with a winning percentage of 57.9 percent, while Toledo is 96-62 with a winning percentage of 60.8 percent.
The Rockets and Bobcats are second and third, respectively, in the conference in wins during that time, trailing only Northern Illinois’ MAC-best 105 wins.
“I have a ton of respect for their coaches and what they have done,” Solich said of Toledo.
