Current Records: Colorado State 1-2-0; Toledo 1-1-0

What to Know

Colorado State is home on Saturday, but with the point spread against them by 6.5 points, it might not be quite the welcoming they would prefer. They will take on Toledo at 10:15 p.m. ET at Canvas Stadium. Toledo should still be riding high after a victory, while Colorado State will be looking to right the ship.

Colorado State's and Arkansas' matchup last week was up for grabs at halftime, but Colorado State was thoroughly outmatched in the second half. Colorado State found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unpleasant 55-34 punch to the gut against Arkansas. Colorado State's loss came about despite a quality game from RB Marvin Kinsey Jr., who rushed for 180 yards and one touchdown on 20 carries. One of the most memorable plays of the game was Kinsey Jr.'s 75-yard touchdown rush in the first quarter.

Meanwhile, the Rockets and Murray State couldn't quite live up to the 70-point over/under that the experts had forecasted. The Rockets took their contest with ease, bagging a 45-nothing win over Murray State. The game was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Rockets had established a 38-nothing advantage.

Colorado State's defeat took them down to 1-2 while Toledo's victory pulled them up to 1-1. A couple defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Colorado State is ninth worst in the nation in touchdowns allowed, with 13 on the season. On the other hand, Toledo enters the matchup with only 2 passing touchdowns allowed, good for 15th best in the nation. So the cards are definitely stacked in their favor.
