Seventeen and counting.
Toledo and Miami played a basketball game on Saturday afternoon at Savage Arena, and the result was the same as the previous 16 meetings: a Rocket W.
Combined with Ohio’s loss to Akron on Friday night, Toledo is one win away from clinching a share of the Mid-American Conference championship. UT will win its second consecutive outright MAC title with wins at Buffalo and against Bowling Green next week.
UT’s 88-73 win wasn’t near as easy as the final score indicates. In the first half, the Rockets trailed by as many as 11 points before turning on the afterburners in the final six minutes.
