Dequan Finn rushed for 106 yards, including a 70-yard burst on a draw play, and Toledo edged away from Ball State 22-12 in a Mid-America Conference opener for both teams on Saturday. The Rockets (2-2, 1-0) grabbed control with two big-play early touchdowns to lead 14-9 at the half, then added two field goals and a safety while holding Ball State (1-3, 0-1) to four Jacob Lewis field goals. Toledo took a 7-3 lead when Carter Bradley hooked up with Devin Maddox on a 69-yard touchdown pass. Finn's 70-yard scamper made it 14-6 on the first play of the second quarter. Ball State used a series of seven laterals on the final play of the game, but the wild play went from the goal line to the 20 and back before Corey Stewart was tackled in the end zone for a Rockets safety. Christian Albright passed for 190 yards for the Cardinals but was sacked four times. Justin Hall had 97 yards receiving. - Toledo/AP College Football

When Miami opened the 2019 season at Iowa, Brett Gabbert became the first true freshman quarterback to open the season as the starter in Miami football history. The younger brother of NFL quarterback, Blaine Gabbert, started all 14 games in 2019, throwing for 2,411 yards and 11 touchdowns. For his efforts, he was named the Mid-American Conference Freshman of the Year, just the third RedHawk in school history to accomplish this feat. Gabbert joins Ben Roethlisberger (2001) and Deland McCullough (1992) on this small list. Gabbert has started 16 games in his young Miami career. - Miami OH Football

08/22/21 - Miles Marshall, rSr/2024, Miami (OH), 6-2, 205 (DS#247 WR) + More +

Last season, Indiana junior wide receiver Miles Marshall proved to himself he could play and produce at the Big Ten level. The 6-foot-4, 212-pounder had 19 catches for 290 yards and a touchdown as IU's third starting receiver with Ty Fryfogle and Whop Philyor. Marshall often alternated with Philyor playing the slot, while lining up outside as well. "I come into this year with a whole lot of confidence," Marshall said. "Knowing I can do it, knowing I can get even better than what I did last year." With Philyor gone and Fryfolge, the reigning Big Ten receiver of the year, back, Marshall now finds himself as the No. 2 receiver on IU's depth chart. But Marshall said he's pushing himself to be the best receiver on the field each day in practice.

"I hope he embraces being a No. 1 receiver because, ultimately, Ty made a bunch of plays, so Ty is not going to sneak up on anybody," IU receivers coach Grant Heard said. Heard expects many defenses to follow the blueprint of Ole Miss in the Outback Bowl, which was to take Fryfogle away and force IU's other receivers to step up and make plays. "We have to make sure we have players across from them that can make plays and feel like they are the first option on every route and have that mindset so when the ball comes to them they are not surprised," Heard said. "They should expect the ball to come to them every play." - Herald Bulletin

For the University of Toledo, a trip to Ford Field and the Mid-American Conference championship game hinges on the arm of whoever head coach Jason Candle and quarterbacks coach Robert Weiner tab as the starting quarterback. Dequan Finn, a third-year sophomore, is one of four quarterbacks hoping to take August by storm and lead the Rocket offense onto the field for their first snap against Norfolk State Sept. 4. "I've always appreciated Dequan's work ethic," Candle said. "He has a really good understanding that that position takes more effort. It takes more commitment. It takes more work, so to speak, when the lights aren't on you and you aren't at practice. He's always understood that and always been good at that."

His summer schedule is proof. Finn worked out with teammates at UT, improving his timing with wide receivers, and then drove north to a personal trainer in Detroit. He wants the chemistry to become second nature so crucial third-down plays can be made with ease. "It's been a focused summer," Finn said. "I've worked on what I need to do to become the starter - mechanics, recognizing defenses, making sure I'm better every day, and being mentally and physically prepared." - Toledo Blade

Redshirt junior receiver Miles Marshall has made steady progress in each of his first two active seasons at Indiana. This season, Marshall could take on an even more significant role in IU's offense. With senior Whop Philyor departed for the NFL draft, Marshall will enter the 2021 season as the second-most experienced receiver on the roster, behind just senior Ty Fryfogle. "I hope my role increases, but that's up to me," Marshall said following IU's ninth spring practice Tuesday. "I've got to keep working hard. I've got to keep getting faster. I've got to work on my hands. I've got to work on my releases, and I've got to become a better player to do the things I want to do. My goal is to end up in the NFL, so I've got a couple of more years left to achieve that goal." Marshall has posted 35 catches for 486 yards and two TDs in his career, including 19 catches for 290 yards and one TD last season. Marshall's highlight catch last year was a 68-yard grab on a fly route against Big Ten champion Ohio State. IU receivers coach Grant Heard is looking for the 6-foot-4, 212-pound Marshall to play more physical this season. - Herald Bulletin
