While a driving rain may have scared away some fans from the Glass Bowl in Toledo's 37-34 overtime win over Eastern Michigan on Oct. 26, it brought a sense of excitement and a heavy burden of expectation to the Rockets' offensive line.
“It was certainly a fun time,” Toledo junior center Luke Doerger said. “We saw the forecast of a storm coming through or a torrential downpour or whatever you want to call it. We said, 'Alright, we are going to have to run the ball. Let's do it.’ So we went in with the mindset of we are going to have to put this on our backs.
