SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Just like last year, the SU football team has won its first two home games of the season, but that's where the Orange hope the similarities stop.

After beating Maine and Colgate a year ago, the Orange didn't win another game inside the Dome.

SU will certainly have its hands full with Toledo on Saturday, especially going against the 4-4 defense that the Rockets play.

They put eight men in the box and make it tough for opponents to run.

But, luckily for SU, they already have seen that type of defense this year.

Rhode Island did the same thing to them two weeks ago so Ryan Nassib and company are hoping they have learned from experience.
