Toledo Vs. Arizona Gamethread: Avoiding MACtion To The Face

The buildup to Arizona's game against Toledo tonight is terrifying if you're a little bit worried about how Rich Rodriguez's debut is going to go. Kent State's dumb-dumb antics aside, the Toledo Rockets' fellow MAC football teams have shown well.

The Ohio Bobcats went into State College and gave the post-Joe Paterno Nittany Lions a taste of pain, Iowa needed a late touchdown to beat Northern Illinois 18-17 and Bowling Green hung with the Florida Gators in a 27-14 loss.Remember, Toledo could be at the top of the MAC.

Our poll earlier today asking your thoughts about Arizona's number of wins by season's end said that at least five of you believe the Wildcats will have eight or more wins this year. Who has a reason for that to happen?

I'm not against optimism, but I am all for having realistic expectations.
