Last week the Toledo Rockets went into Columbus and almost shocked Ohio State. They’ll try to take down another giant this week when they host Boise State.
Boise State Vs. Toledo: Kellen Moore Has Great Night Against Rockets
Moore was 32-of-42 for 455 yards, five touchdowns and one interception. That adds up to an eye-popping 201.71 passer rating. But even that stat might not give you an idea of the scope of Moore’s performance, especially given the widespread misunderstanding of the passer rating.
And it wasn’t just that one of Moore’s receivers was hot -- he completed passes to nine different teammates. Five of them had at least four catches on the night. (Though we should point out here that three of Tyler Shoemaker’s four catches went for touchdowns.)

No. 4 Boise State Vs Toledo: Kellen Moore Ties Career-High With Five Touchdown Passes
Moore has padded his Heisman Trophy resume to the tune of 32-of-43 for 455 yards and tying a career-high with five touchdowns against the over-matched Rockets defense. Three of Moore’s touchdown passes have gone to Shoemaker, who has four total receptions for 52 yards on the night.
Following Moore’s fifth touchdown, Owens led the Rockets on a 73-yard touchdown drive that took just one minute and 25 seconds. The extra point was no good, the third missed point after attempt of the game between the two teams, putting the score at 33-15 with 4:33 to play.

Quite a few things went wrong in Toledo on Friday night, and few of which had to do with the game itself. First, consider that this was a Friday night game. These types of events are a recipe for disaster, with college students typically taking full advantage of a lengthy tailgate.
Next, add in yellow foam footballs, given to, or smuggled into, the Toledo student section. Naturally, these wonderful little projectiles were thrown onto the field early and often, resulting in a confusing sight for those watching at home. It looked like the fan in section 16 was throwing a flag, to put it plainly.
