EPISODE 2

With spring practices in our face, it's time to really look closer at how these Mid-American Conference teams have been built up over time, and what these groups might end up looking like once we get to playing games in a few months.

Toledo's quarterbacks are very talented, and it's a position group that, when it plays super well, can take this team from barely bowl-eligible to potentially 9 or 10 wins in a single season. Foundationally, Toledo should always be in the conversation for 9 or 10 wins in a season, but hasn't come close to that as of recent. It hasn't always been because of the fault of quarterbacks, but in other instances (2018, 2019) this is a position that probably should've performed better. 2020 could've been a fair year to not see much progression (new coach, pandemic year), but the Rockets actually saw improvement from the two QBs that saw the field most: Eli Peters and Carter Bradley. Both return and there are other talented bench guys that chose not to transfer out but rather stay and compete for Toledo's QB1 job, but will an incoming transfer freshman have something to say about that?

Bowling Green has struggled to be halfway decent ever since its three-year run at MAC Championship appearances in the middle of last decade. Now we're in year three of Scot Loeffler as the head coach to help clean up any excessive damage the Mike Jinks hire had to BG football, but news from the transfer portal hasn't helped him at all to this point. This offseason, 7 starters from last year have hit the portal, and only 22 guys still on the current roster are non-freshman eligible. A lot of freshmen will see the field in 2021, but why should we expect any superstars-in-the-making to stick around if we keep seeing the portal work out for all these other Falcons that want to leave?
