The Rockets finally play at Savage Arena after three road games, and the visitor is a Raiders team that has barely missed while crashing the glass Toledo can't protect.

| Spread | Wright State -1 |
|---|---|
| Total (over/under) | 157 |
- Wright State should control the boards and the foul line; Toledo needs its home floor to snap a perimeter slump.
- Wright State's offensive rebounding (21st nationally) against a Toledo defensive glass ranked 323rd.
- Wright State is favored by 1.5, down from 2; Toledo's three games have all gone under the total.
Bricks against swishes
Toledo has spent the first week of its season on the road and missing jumpers. Tuesday's home opener brings a Wright State team that has barely missed anything, and the Rockets' shooting will decide whether they can stretch a three-game winning streak in this series.
Toledo is 14-of-63 from three, a 22.2% clip that ranks 351st of 364. Its effective field goal percentage, which counts threes 1.5 times, sits 336th. Wright State is the opposite: the Raiders' 65.2% effective field goal mark ranks ninth in Division I.
Context matters. Both Raiders wins came at home, and one came against Air Force, ranked 348th in adjusted net efficiency. Florida Atlantic, at 120th, was a fairer test, and Wright State still won 97-71. Two games is a small sample, and this is the Raiders' first road game.
Second chances for the Raiders
The cleanest edge sits on the glass. Wright State grabs 45.3% of its own misses, 21st nationally. Toledo's defensive rebounding ranks 323rd, and the Rockets are being outrebounded by 10.7 a game.
Andrea Holden, a reserve last season, is the engine, averaging 11.0 rebounds. The door swings both ways, since Wright State's defensive rebounding ranks 317th. Toledo just hasn't walked through it: its offensive rebound rate ranks 295th.
The free-throw gap
Wright State's defense fouls. Opponents' free throw rate (attempts per field goal attempt) against the Raiders is 47.5%, 312th in the country. That would normally be an opening for a struggling offense.
Toledo hasn't cashed in, making 61.1% at the line, 318th. The Raiders hit 83.3%. In a game priced this tight, that gap tends to show up in the final minutes.
New faces, old pattern
Last season's numbers say little here. Wright State returns 31.6% of last season's minutes and Toledo 36.0%. Toledo lost its starting guards, Sonny Wilson to South Florida and Leroy Blyden Jr. to Kansas. Wright State rebuilt its backcourt with transfers C.J. O'Hara from Green Bay and Chadlyn Traylor from Charleston.
Expectations stayed high for both. Wright State was picked first in the Horizon League, with Kellen Pickett named preseason Player of the Year. Toledo was picked second in the MAC, and Sean Jones and center Austin Parks made the preseason All-MAC second team. Parks, Toledo's top returner, isn't among the Rockets' listed early leaders, and no injury news has surfaced for either team.
The series belongs to Toledo, which has won the last three meetings, including 81-71 at Wright State last November.
What the market sees
Wright State is favored by 1.5, down from 2 when we first recorded the line, with the move toward Toledo. The total sits at 159.5.
The two teams' early totals point in opposite directions. Toledo's three games have all gone under despite a pace of 76.2 possessions per 40 minutes, 58th nationally. Wright State's two have both gone over, fueled by 53.5 first-half points a game, 10th in the country. Toledo's first halves have been the problem: it averages 29.0 points before the break, 320th.
