MAC FOOTBALL PREVIEW: #69 Toledo Football 2012 Preview

Toledo had a tremendous 2011 campaign, finishing with a stellar 9-4 record. Head Coach Tim Beckman used that success to leverage a position as the next head coach for the University of Illinois. The Rockets turned to their offensive coordinator, Matt Campbell to coach in their bowl game, an epic win in the Military Bowl over Air Force. He then was offered the official head coaching job for Toledo and is now taking over the program and will look to build on their recent success.
