They stayed focused and with game plan. So many starters out and 2nd string

The UB game should be flexed to TV. Best ESPN+ game weve probably ever had.

The way this game started, I thought well here we go again. But we came back with a vengeance, holding Kent state to only 91 yards in the second half to me was amazing.This team has shown something they have not shown in the past few years. Very proud of them. They played a great game yesterday. Great game guys. GO ROCKETS

Poor start and low energy start= bad coaching.

Ability to adjust and come back from a bad start= good coaching.

Make some sense of this.

Toledo certainly was not ready to go. I was having flashbacks of the Ball St game a few years ago, along with about every game against NIU when UT couldn't stop the RPO. I guess we can thank Candle for his $50,000 donation to keep Kehres and the adjustments they made. We can also thank Finn and wrs. There aren't many times when you can start a game being down 21 points and win. I think this team has a lot of leadership. Toledo would not have won a game like this a couple of years ago, let alone last year.

For some of those who love Coach Lewis... including many professional pundits and outlets. Maybe they just had a good gameplan of something we havent seen. I dont think we were energyless??? My buddies and I never blinked when Kent went up. It felt flukey to start, and we were right. We are going to beat everyone in this league outside of Buffalo by 20 pts.

Once we adjusted they didnt have any punches left. We are missing A TON of players. Our depth for next season will return a meriad of starts. We have the most talent in the conference AND are developing it. This could be a dynasty if Finn spends the next two seasons in midnight blue and gold.

Rockets looked flat at first. Didn't seem to wakeup until Jacquez's long kickoff return

I'd rather float that narrative then the one that our coaches were so thoroughly out-throught pre-game the other team was up three TDs before anyone noticed.

Still, coaches should notice mood. We certainly can't expect local media to ask questions about tactics and reactions. All we got is speculation.

My speculation was that I needed an adult beverage after the first 6 minutes, real quick !!

But like a TRUE fan you stuck in there.
IDK, I think some of the employed "yes-men" around here don't get, criticism and critique, talking tactics is what a fan board is about. Vent, talk, stick with the team.

I started earlier with the UM-PSU game. After 3 straight nights of Nyquil, the beer just didn't taste all the great so I had none during the Toledo game. That won't happen again. Maybe some beer and "Nyquil chicken" should be on the menu with a start like last week. Can probably find the recipe on Tik-Tok.

Come on down to the north end of lot 10 Moto !!
Drinking from a huge glass Das Boot is quickly becoming our tailgate tradition !!

Cannot start slow and work from behind against UB. This is their biggest game of the year. Next three are all very tough.

UT must bring it hard next week. I hope Hook an play. Hook is bound for the NFL. He is a monster. He's the most likely next NFL bound player on UT. Hines and Johnson possibly. Taylor could be a pro candidate. He's a senior but he'll likely return on a medical redshirt. I'm off topic but ... hey I often do that on this board.

I thought we'd claw back. I was nervous but the last 3o minutes was awesome D

Go Rockets!

Hines is definitely a NFL prospect, has been a beast his entire Rocket career. And both him and Johnson have the physique alone to garner pro teams attention.
