Hornets Face Massive MACtion Upset

Sacramento State is scheduled to make its historic Midweek MACtion debut on Wednesday night. The Hornets, who recently secured their first conference win against Kent State, face a daunting challenge as they are set to be 25.5-point home underdogs against Toledo. This significant point spread reflects Toledo's strong performance this season. The Rockets currently hold a 6-2 record and are performing well under new head coach Mike Jacobs, who has an unblemished 42-8 record from his previous Division II coaching stints. Toledo's team is statistically impressive, ranking 14th nationally in yards per play on offense while their defense allows only 4.8 yards per play. Their quarterback, John Alan Richter, has been effective, completing 66.8 percent of his passes for 2,244 yards and 17 touchdowns with only two interceptions. This offensive prowess will be tested against a Sacramento State defense that ranks 120th in yards per play allowed. Additionally, Toledo had a bye week, giving them more preparation time for this game compared to Sacramento State, who played on Friday.
