Continue reading to get our thoughts on Toledo vs Akron and for our college football best bets for this all-Ohio matchup on the gridiron.
Toledo Looks to Close Regular Season On High Note
The Toledo Rockets have had a solid season in the MAC, going 7-4 overall and 4-3 in conference play. They lost their most recent game at home to the Ohio Bobcats, though, and will look to avoid a second straight loss to close out their regular season. Toledo was held to just seven points against Ohio in an uncharacteristically bad offensive performance, one in which the Rockets were held to just 215 total yards and turned the ball over three times. If the Rockets want to reach eight wins in the regular season, they will need to clean things up on that side of the ball.
Can Akron Grab Second Straight Win?
Akron is just 3-8 overall this season and 2-5 in the MAC. They got a win in their last game, beating up on the winless Kent State Golden Flashes on the road. This week, the Zips face a much tougher challenge against a Toledo team that will be hungry after getting humiliated on offense last time out. The Zips are averaging just under 100 rushing yards per game this season and a huge key to this matchup will be figuring out how to get things going on the ground to keep the ball away from Toledo.
Toledo vs Akron Best Bet
We are going to lay the points with the visitors in the Toledo vs Akron matchup in college football on Tuesday night. While the Rockets struggled against Ohio in their last outing, we fear that the offense of Akron is too one-dimensional to produce a similar result in this game. Look for Toledo to enjoy a strong finish to their regular season as they get ready to find out where they are going for bowl season in the near future.
