Final Game Notes

 
  • Toledo has now won eight straight meetings against Central Michigan and the last four in Mount Pleasant. UT is now 25-18-3 all-time against the Chippewas and the 10 points are the fewest by CMU against Toledo since a 41-0 Rocket victory in 2000.
  • For the fourth straight season, the Rockets start off 2-0 in conference play.
  • The Toledo ground game accounted for 310 yards on Saturday, the most since Jan. 4, 2015 against Arkansas State in the GoDaddy.com Bowl.
  • Terry Swanson finished with a season-high 145 rushing yards and two touchdowns, the 14th 100-yard rushing performance of his career. He’s now in sole possession of fifth place in school history in career 100-yard rushing games, passing David Fluellen (2010-13).
  • Swanson also moved up on the career rushing yards list, passing Casey McBeth (1991-94) and moving into seventh place. He now has 2,738 career rushing yards. He had 118 yards on 18 carries in the first half.
  • Shakif Seymour ran the ball 15 times for a career-high 119 yards and a touchdown, all in the fourth quarter. The last time a Rocket had 100-plus rushing yards in a single quarter was Swanson (Oct. 10, 2015).
  • Three different players had runs of at least 39 yards: Seymour and Art Thompkins each had a 39-yard run and Swanson had a 48-yard touchdown run.
  • Tight End Drew Rosi made his first career catch in the second quarter. Last weekend against Eastern Michigan he made his first career appearance in a game for the Rockets.
  • Jack Linch recorded his first career interception in the second quarter, the sixth interception forced by the Toledo defense this season.
  • Justin Clark also registered his first career interception. The two picks from the UT defense marked the second straight game with multiple interceptions.
  • Senior walk-on Liam Allen made the first catch of his career in the fourth quarter.
  • Logan Woodside scampered nine yards for his first rushing TD of the season and fourth of his career in the fourth quarter.
  • Toledo held Central Michigan to 49 yards of total offense in the first half and led in time of possession 21:01-8:59.
  • Toledo held CMU to 244 yards of total offense, the fewest since the season opener vs. Elon (175).
