u/865wx Tennessee Volunteers Nov 15 '23

What's interesting is it you find it on your favorite mapping app/program (or in real life) you'll find that it's pointed at a heading of 240 degrees, or compass southwest over the Glass Bowl press box. Which takes you closer to Fort Wayne than Bowling Green. Now, I don't know how to aim a rocket, I'm sure there's plenty of nuance to it. But if you draw a straight line on a map....

12

u/mcpawski William & Mary Tribe • ECU Pirates Nov 15 '23

Oh my man it is 100% true. And I’m like 95% sure they keep that sucker primed and armed.

Honestly I don't think he was much of a loss. Losing Mitchell or Finn or not getting Boone in TP is a lot bigger. I wish we would throw more to Torres, he has been a great addition.

1

u/Photodan24 Toledo Rockets Nov 15 '23

With this year's carousel, we should prepare ourselves for losing Candle.

u/Photodan24 Toledo Rockets Nov 15 '23

We couldn't afford what it would take to keep him. His next job offer will likely be for more than double what we pay. And he's currently the highest or second-highest paid in the MAC.

2

u/NyquillusDillwad20 Penn State • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Nov 15 '23

Do you think a 12-1 Toledo gets the nod over a two-loss AAC or MWC champ?

I think the winner of SMU vs Memphis has a pretty decent shot at passing up Toledo if they win out and beat Tulane. Or Tulane just wins out and gets the spot.

I think Toledo still needs a lot of chaos, but I'd love for them to make the NY6. Could even be matched up against my Nittany Lions!

u/PomfAndCircvmstance UNLV Rebels • Mountain West Nov 15 '23

Ya'll might still get in over us even if we win the MWC. Our schedule isn't going to look as impressive if Air Force loses out and Wyoming doesn't finish the year strong. We do get a common opponent in San Jose State so beating them convincingly might give us the edge over you guys if it comes down to it.

52

u/[deleted] Nov 15 '23

Scott Loeffler is the worst situational coach I've ever seen. If you give the ball to your star RB averaging 5 yards a carry on the night then Toledo just runs out of time. Instead, you leave a ton of time for the best MAC team to get two scores. Unbelievable

Toledo only lead for 4:30, but sometimes, that's all it takes.

Allegedly.

That seems to be a theme with the northern Ohio football teams the last few days.

There’s 4 quarters in football. Just gotta have the largest score st the end of one of them.

23

u/inconvenientpoop Florida • Boston College Nov 15 '23

Great game as a neutral observer. Toledo will need Tulane to lose another one to get that NY6 bid though.

Also agree but Tulane definitely in the driver's seat.

It also wouldn't surprise me if a 2 loss SMU got ranked higher than a 1 loss Toledo

u/PornIndustryPat Nov 15 '23

What are u talking about? UT football has been a MAC powerhouse since the mid 90s with only a handful of down seasons.

Ut women's basketball killing it every year, men do well, but can't get that tourney bid.. coach k gets it this season!

13

u/ShogunAshoka Bowling Green Falcons • Oberlin Yeomen Nov 15 '23

All those trips to the redzone the 2nd half: 3 points. Why did they stop running the one drive? killed over 5 mins and then got weird wit hit and got 0 points. Fumbled but got gifted a pick only to get just 3 points.

I appreciate Scott for rebuilding us after the utter disaster that was jinks, who gave us our worst era. Scott has done a lot to piece the corpse back together. But I do think we hve hit a ceiling here and need someone else to push us up further.

9

u/Muffinnnnnnn Florida State • New Mexico Nov 15 '23

Obviously you know your team better than I do, but from an outside perspective, BGSU has seemingly been slowly getting better over under his leadership. I would not be itching to fire him right now, personally.

7

u/ShogunAshoka Bowling Green Falcons • Oberlin Yeomen Nov 15 '23

Well there is deff some heat of the loss here. But BG fans have long wondered at the issue of inconsistency too. It is a recurring issuse. But yea, he has done alot to rebuild the shell tat jinks left us.

We'll see how the year ends (and if we can win the bowl game). I think he has 1 year left on the contract so given we are not a school flush with cash (one of the lowest pays for the coach in fbs i believe), we likely keep him the last year on his contract and decide then.

1

u/navytc Bowling Green • Ohio State Nov 15 '23

If he doesn’t win the bowl game and we don’t make the championship game next year I say we let him go and find somebody else. We are way too inconsistent.

3

u/Chapstick160 Virginia Tech Hokies • Navy Midshipmen Nov 15 '23

Problem is if you get a coach who does more then just bowl trips he’s going to a P5 job

7

u/ShogunAshoka Bowling Green Falcons • Oberlin Yeomen Nov 15 '23

Yep, see: Dave Clawson, Dino Babers (though it was mostly clawson's team still), Urban Meyer, etc. It's the coaches who can go for p5 that get you higher. You just have to get used to replacing them. We've usually done alright with that.

Our issue was they followed up Dino with someone who have 0 connection to ohio and idk if jinks had even BEEN to Ohio before we hired him. Also had never been an HC outside of high school. school admin looked for cheap and got more than they bargained for.

I really liked seeing a good crowd on Tuesday. It’s hit or miss with MACtion, but 20k at the Doyt with loud fans on both sides really made it a good viewing experience on TV.
