The matchup
Toledo's last five tell the story of a team rounding into form. The Rockets beat the Sacramento State Hornets 20-17, beat the Western Michigan Broncos 45-38, beat the Eastern Michigan Eagles 34-14, lost to the Buffalo Bulls 8-23, then beat the Ball State Cardinals 39-24. That's a group that's piled up 319 points for on the season against 220 allowed, and the three-game win streak is the headline heading into this one.
Massachusetts has had a tougher road to its current one-game winning streak. The Minutemen beat the Ball State Cardinals 31-30 most recently, but before that dropped games to the UConn Huskies 16-35, the Buffalo Bulls 18-25, the Miami (OH) RedHawks 19-20 and the Eastern Michigan Eagles 14-38. UMass has scored 243 points this season against 199 allowed, numbers that put it in a different tier than the team it's about to face.
Key matchups
This one comes down to Toledo's offense, which has put up 319 points this season, against a Massachusetts defense that has given up 199. If the Rockets' attack looks anything like it did against the Western Michigan Broncos or the Ball State Cardinals, that's a tough ask for the Minutemen.
On the other side, Toledo's defense has allowed 220 points this year, and it'll see a Massachusetts offense that has scored 243. UMass showed it can hang in a shootout with its 31-30 win over the Ball State Cardinals, and that kind of scoring punch is the Minutemen's best path to keeping this one competitive.
The pick
Toledo is favored by 14.0 with a total set at 51.5, and the market score has the Rockets winning 33-19. Toledo's three-game win streak and its scoring edge make it the clear choice here, while Massachusetts will need its offense to replicate the kind of night it had against Ball State Cardinals to keep this one within shouting distance.
