DETROIT (AP) — Toledo is the preseason favorite to win the Mid-American Conference championship.
The Rockets, who welcome back 19 starters, were tabbed to win the West division while defending champion Miami of Ohio was narrowly picked to win the East over Ohio. The poll of media covering the MAC was announced Tuesday during the conference’s media day in Detroit.
Toledo finished second in the West last fall before losing to Florida International in the final minute of the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl.
