When are you? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_Bowl
We play in one of the nicest stadiums in all of college football and your "team" plays in an 80 year old field-turfed ****-box with a seating capacity well below 30K, and you want to talk about stadiums?
GTFOH with that ****, you fa99ot.

Context. Knowledge. Understanding.
You don't have any of them.
Has to do with my background - and I didn't pick it - a Mod picked it at WEZ.
So. Choke on it.

"Toledo opens with Elon, @Nevada, and Tulsa. We should be 3-0, or 2-1 at worst."
At worst 2-1?? Your going to possibly lose to one of these 3 teams then go on the road and beat a Top-20 P5 team?
"The Rockets other losses came to 8-5 Ohio, 13-1 WMU, and 10-3 App State."
Appy State??
L 23-38 @Mizzou
L 24- 49 Mizzou
Think these Mizzou games as far as what I see is the best case scenario for Toledo next month.
Best case. Personally, I don't see them scoring more than 17 points or so.
One other thing. I hope your QB has a lights-out start and getting some Heisman-hype after the first 3 games.
Our D-line is getting back to what us old-timers where used to seeing back in the day.
We weren't very nice to Heisman contenders.

well if you want to talk smack, at least know what you are talking about. "Cha-ching" - that came from the former head coach of our rival - Bowling Green. He is long gone and we have beaten them 6 straight years. So don't assign that to anyone at Toledo. It's our inside joke and you can't steal it from us... unless you want to talk smack to BGSUcks

You don't talk smack about a team that is never going to beat you.

Does using profanity make you feel good?? lol
No one really bothers to rank stadiums but bleacher report anyways? Who cares? Of all things why is that something to puff your chest about? Not national titles or NFL players, but the fact that you reside in a large city with an NFL team who rents out their stadium to you??? Bravo. I sure hope it's nice!
It's funny you mention our artificial **** box of a stadium. Your fans will be more than welcome to it in 2018. What are you powerhouses doing doing a 1 for 1 with a MAC school anyways????
Toledo Blade, "UT and Miami have played once before, a 24-14 home-field victory for Miami on Nov. 21, 1987. Miami was ranked No. 3 in the nation at the time in both the AP and UPI polls, and went on to win the national championship that season thanks to a 20-14 win over then-No. 1 Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl."

Shut the fvck up you soppy ******* ****.
I bet you will be here barking like a yapping dog right up until kickoff and then never show your ****** face around here again after we beat the breaks off your slimy gashes.

Really, we should be used to this sort of thing by now. I'm sure some Arkansas State hillbilly will start a thread on here any day talking all kinds of trash. It's nothing new. Remember the FAU guy last year talking about the Owls having a shot at beating Miami because the year before the game was close at the half? After steam rolling them, he never posted here again. Just like the App State guys.
Al Golden is gone. The days of allowing significantly weaker teams to hang around and have a shot at a victory are over. The sooner these other fanbases realize this the better.
The good news for the Rockets is that Miami will play a game up there and your ticket office can triple the ticket price and you can have a "standing room only, big game atmosphere" for one night. A majority of the App State fans were stoked to get to see Miami at home even if their team got mauled. Just make sure that you keep the marching band and the flaggets away from the visiting team tunnel when the Hurricanes storm the field.

Lol whut? While we would all love for the Canes to have their own stadium, there just isn't enough room on the campus. So instead they use what is probably one of the nicest football stadiums pro or college. You know **** well you'd share Hard Rock stadium and if you go to the game you'll know why.
[MENTION=17528]UofToledofans[/MENTION] my post to enjoy the stadium was sincere. I wasn't ranking the stadium at all. It's a nice ******* stadium that just got a few hundred million dollars in upgrades. But, if you'd like to talk about national titles, NFL players, number of first round draft picks, NFL hall of famers, or any other type of quality football measuring stick, let's do it. We'll let you start because you'll be done really quick. You have what, one first round draft pick? You got any pro bowlers? What's your longest winning streak? What's your longest home winning streak? What's your highest ranking? What's your best bowl win?
Why is Miami coming to you? Because Miami will play anyone, anytime, anywhere. You got anyone else in the P5 willing to do that?

Exactly, those are the things that should be touted because you are "the U." When I posted about your stadium, I was referring to the fella down playing the Glass Bowl. Not you. It's still a funny thing to bring up...how lucky we are to play there?? We've played in the Big House and won. We've played in Happy Valley and won. The program has played at nice stadiums before. We played at Gillette 2 seasons ago. Big time atmosphere's are fun, and I'm sure the team will enjoy it's time down there.
Our longest winning streak is longer than yours tho lol. Won every game from 1969 to 1971. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_NCAA_Division_I_football_winning_streaks
Best Bowl win I'm not sure? #23 Temple probably because they beat ND that year, or a Tangerine bowl win? Finished in the top 25 a few times. As you would expect we haven't had any P5 bowl games because it goes by tie-ins and we simply don't have a P5 tie in. We are 10-6 in Bowl games ever. Had some decent NFL players. Lance Moore. Bruce Gradkowski. Barry Church. Brent Kern. Nick Kazcur. John Grecco. etc. We lead the conference most seasons in NFL players. Had 3 drafted last season.
Obviously this is no Miami equivalent, but we aren't an FCS school that has never beaten anyone in the top 50.
(taken from csnbbs board)
ACC: 0-0
B10: 6-14 (Purdue (2010/1997/1992, Michigan 2008, Minnesota 2001, Penn State 2000)
B12: 4-5 (ISU 2015/2007, Colorado 2009, Kansas 2006)
P12: 0-6
SEC: 1-3 (Arkansas 2015)
Not puffing my chest at all. You asked these questions.
And that's fine if you aren't scared of anyone. We enjoy the opportunity. But most big schools stay away from Toledo... That's why Ohio State took us in Cleveland. Pitt was the last top 25 P5 team to come to the Glass Bowl. They were 9th with Larry Fitzgerald and went home sad Panthers.

Ok, never said you guys were lucky to play at Hard Rock. The stadium has had 500 million in upgrades over the last few years. It's ******* sweet.
I didn't know your team had a winning streak that long. You have Miami by one game but no where near the competition during the streaks. Your best finish was ranked 12 after going 12-0. Miami has gone 12-0 three times and all three resulted in a national championship. Miami has 5 NC rings, a record 58 game home win streak, 14 years straight of first round draft picks, and a record 6 guys taken in the first round in the 2004 draft. The accolade comparison really isn't even close. Y'all beating Pitt with Larry Fitzgerald? That team lost 5 games that year. They shouldn't have been ranked. Also, Miami beat Pitt both years Larry was there.
Purdue
2010 8 losses
1997 3 losses, not bad but it was the first game of the season.
1992 7 losses
2008 Michigan 9 losses, ******* terrible team.
2001 Minnesota 7 losses
2000 Penn State another 7 loss team.
One quality win against the B10 out of 20 games.
ISU
2015 9 losses
2007 9 losses
Colorado 2009 9 losses
Kansas 2006 6 losses
No quality wins out of 9 games
Arkansas had 5 losses that year but they were over .500 so it's a quality win.
Y'all are not going to beat Miami this year or next year in your house. The higher you get your hopes up, the harder you're going to crash.
EDIT:
Check out who Miami is putting into the ring of honor this year. Recognize any of the names?

Just to try to find something worthy of discussing, I searched for a Toledo board. Luckily there is only one, and I guess the "OP" comes from that board.
One of the posters is clowning us because we are using "OP," when he thought we were trying to say "Opie," like a slang word for a local yokel. So he thought we were all idiots for thinking "Opie" was spelled "OP." It had to be explained to him that OP means "original poster."
