Toledo returned 8 starters on offense and 7 on defense. They averaged 36 points/game last season and had the best defense in their conference. Toledo wasn't a pushover.
The pocket rockets played ONE team that was decent, Fresno State, put up 14 points. Oops, gave up 44. Sure, Fresno is salty. Their other tough conference game? Temple

They lost to CENTRAL MICHIGAN and were slammed at home by N. Illinois. They're nothing special.
ISU is the epitome of the team that gets up for certain games (Iowa, KSU, NU) and doesn't seem interested in other games (Army '05, Baylor '05 at home). McCarney is overrated and the Clowns have the worst home field in the North outside of the squawks.
