Straight from the guys over at RocketDigest.com (Scout) — the quick and dirty:

This game is the Rockets taking but they will have to earn it. Eliminating or at least minimizing stupid penalties that kill drives or negate big gains are a must for the Rockets. Allowing Miami to stay in the game will not favor Toledo. Falling below .500 will not only end all dreams of a MAC West title, it may begin a dive that Pilot Beckman cannot correct and that’s a scary thought indeed.

The Rockets’ goal will be to keep the Robins in their nest. I’m thinking Coach Beckman will have a few tricks to impart on the Redhawk and, in the end, have a treat-filled afternoon.

Best part of the article is the ‘What To Look For’ section:

The Rockets defensive scheme will be focused on limiting the Redhawk rushing game keeping MU a one dimensional passing team.

The UT OL to re-establish itself and open holes for Collins and Williams. One or both will have close to 100 yards.

If Alex Pettee is quarterbacking the Rockets offense, look for a controlled passing game in support of the run.

The Rockets may not put up 30+ points but they will do a much better job of sustaining control drives.

Three count or less pass plays from Dysert.

The defense to have at least three sacks and an INT or two.

The Rockets to have at least one big kick-off and punt return.

Barry Church gets another blocked kick to extend his streak to four games.

Eric Page will score.

At least two Miami fumbles.

Sounds hopeful,… if Toledo can deliver.
