It takes eight months for the football season to arrive, and then it's gone in a flash.
Wednesday already marks the final home game of 2023 for the Toledo Rockets, who will try to polish off a perfect 6-0 record in the Glass Bowl. Standing in their way is a pesky Eastern Michigan team that's given UT all it can handle in recent years.
Two years ago, Toledo did not protect its home field against the Eagles, losing in a wild midweek MACtion game that featured 1,162 yards and 101 points. The Rockets would prefer to avoid a shootout, but if that's what it takes to win and keep its New Year's Six hopes alive, they'll take a win by any means necessary.
