The University of Toledo is coming off its most successful season since 2017, as the Rockets won the Mid-American Conference championship and then closed the year with a victory in the Boca Raton Bowl.
Expectations are even higher for 2023. Head coach Jason Candle is back with a new contract, and he's bringing almost every key playmaker on both sides of the ball from last year.
The season begins with a trip to Illinois, where UT — a big-game hunter for several decades — could snag another win over a Big Ten and Power Five opponent. From there, the schedule sets up for what could potentially be a memorable year.
