Notes
HC Candle left for UConn? Very odd move
Hired HC Mike Jacobs (Mercer). Pot. big upgrade
Beat M-OH w/ QB2, not impressive. 3 TOs, 313 yds
Killed by Wazzu in bad spot, Run Off awful 61 yds
8-4 best possible finish & must win @ Mia OH
Blew another vs BG, OG'd BG by 200 yds & still lost
Penalties, turnovers & awful coaching killing Toledo
Gleason/Off disappointing. Penalty issues hurting
Yearly awful L vs 0-3 WMU, Gleason 89 yds, 2 INT
Run Off terrible, Run Def bad in L to UK
