🏈 Toledo's money 💰 game

Toledo was scheduled to play Maryland this year, but the Terps wanted to push the game back to 2029 (as if college football will still exist by then) so they paid the Rockets a cool $575,000 not to play.

That left a date open on Toledo's schedule, so in swooped Mississippi State with a cool $1.2 million for the Rockets to make the trip to Starkville.

Toledo happily took that money, too, then proceeded to boat-race the Bulldogs, 41-17, behind 325 yards and three touchdowns from QB Tucker Gleason.



It’s near the bottom of this fairly cleverly written recap of yesterday
