Rockets Heating Up in MAC Play
Toledo enters this matchup at 16-13 overall and 10-6 in MAC play. The Rockets have won four of their last five, recently defeating Ohio 79-67, NIU 79-69, EMU 94-75, and WMU 90-79. Their lone loss during that stretch came at Bowling Green 80-70. Toledo appears to be peaking at the right time heading into postseason play.
Offensively, the Rockets are averaging 81.2 points per game while allowing 76.9 points per contest. They shoot an efficient 48% from the field and average 15.8 assists per game. Toledo plays at a fast tempo and relies on strong perimeter shooting and ball movement to generate scoring runs.
Defensively, Toledo averages 7.5 steals and 3.1 blocks per game. However, allowing nearly 77 points per contest has been a concern against elite offenses. They will need to tighten up defensively against one of the hottest teams in the country.

Toledo Rockets vs Miami (OH) RedHawks Pick
- Pick: Miami (OH) RedHawks - Spread
Miami’s offensive firepower and undefeated record speak volumes. Toledo can score, but allowing nearly 77 points per game against a team averaging over 90 is a dangerous combination. I expect Miami to control the pace and pull away in the second half.
