At stake is more than just a regular-season win here. Because both teams sit at 5-2 in MAC play, the outcome of this game could help determine who reaches the conference championship game. A win for Toledo would be enough to get to Detroit, while Central Michigan needs a win and some other results to go their way.
For Central Michigan, a win on Senior Day against a top conference rival would mark their best regular-season record since 2021 and serve as validation of the direction of the program under their new head coach.
Toledo brings momentum to Michigan. They have won three games in a row after an authoritative 38-9 win over Ball State in their last game. The Rockets' defense recorded seven sacks and 17 tackles for loss. They forced three turnovers and suffocated Ball State’s offense throughout. That kind of defensive dominance has been a theme this season and Toledo will hope for more of the same from their defense in this road test. Central Michigan comes in off a pair of wins, including a 28-16 victory at Kent State and a 38-19 home win over Buffalo.
For Toledo, the signal-caller is Tucker Gleason, who has thrown for 2,417 yards, 21 touchdowns, and 9 interceptions. His ability to find playmakers like Junior Vandeross III (71 catches, 876 yards, 11 TD) and DeaMonte Trayanum has given Toledo a balanced, multi-dimensional offense.
Central Michigan's aerial attack has struggled this year. Their passing yards per game rank near the bottom of the FBS, which makes them vulnerable against a Toledo secondary that ranks among the best in the country.
I would expect Toledo to get a win on the road to lock up a spot in the MAC title game. But I don't think it's going to be a walk in the park for them either. Expect Central Michigan to cover the spread as an underdog in this huge game from Mount Pleasant, as they should keep the pressure on the Rockets throughout.
