Mid-American Conference

TOLEDO, Ohio -- Fresh off a convincing 38-7 win over Kent State on Saturday during Homecoming at the Glass Bowl, the Toledo Rockets moved up to No. 22 in the Associated Press Top 25 Poll and cracked the Amway USA Today Coaches Poll at No. 25.

Toledo remains unbeaten with a 5-0 overall record, including 2-0 in the Mid-American Conference.  The Rockets will host Eastern Michigan this Saturday, Oct. 17 at Noon ET as the game will be broadcast by BCSN, Time Warner Cable SportsChannel and ESPN3.

The Rockets have not been ranked this high since they finished the 2001 season ranked No. 22 in the coaches poll. It's also the first time Toledo has been ranked in both polls that final poll in 2001. The all-time highest ranking for Toledo came in 1970 when the Rockets were No. 12 in the final AP poll.
