The Big Game

November 24, 2004

victory_teaser.jpg Lately it seems that the University of Toledo is the big rival of every MAC football opponent it comes up against. (at least to the other teams) I suppose it's because Toledo is perennially the team to beat if you want to win the West Division. This past Tuesday continued the most heated "true rivalry" in the conference, against BGSU.
As if that wasn't enough, the stakes were raised by having the divisional championship and a bowl game on the line for the Toledo seniors' last home (and nationally televised - ESPN2) game.

With all this shouting of "BROCK," I think back to a time of darts at MisCue and a certain Andrew Rower....but alas, I could be wrong.

Dan, good shots, not great, but good. Now that pic of Stempin driving down the lane against Ohio State a few years back....now THAT was a GREAT one! Speaking of, where's my photo at? hehehe

Hey guys! Dan, I just recently found your site and must say you're doing a great job. By the way, do you guys ever hear from Andy or Frank?

Well, that was Andy, two posts above you but I have yet to be able to find Frank again.

A very hard fought game. I thought BG had it locked up going into the locker room 20 points ahead at half-time. But alas... The MAC has many secrets. My boss (a UT grad) hung various UT swag around my cubicle at work.

So, from the BG fan... Awesome game UT! More pictures would be appreciated.
