With a few honorable mentions listed as well, these are my top 10 plays of the decade arranged by moment, rarity and pure amazement. 

(HM): In 2013 Alonzo Russell makes a tremendous one handed catch sporting the short lived grey uniforms vs. CMU in Mount Pleasant.

(HM): In 2016, Toledo tries a two point conversion down 51-52 at BYU. Logan Woodside drops the snap, but finds his trusty TE Michael Roberts in the endzone. The raw emotion is captured by Roberts, as the crowd goes silent and he yells in excitement. If the outcome were different, this play would crack my top 5.

(HM): In 2019 the Rockets got BYU at home, and this play features an interception late in the game by Kahlil Robinson, returned to the one yard line. The roar of the crowd after Toledo climbed back in is a feeling I want to relive over and over again.

(10): In 2015 Toledo played #21 Temple in the Boca Raton Bowl. Corey Jones played an exceptional game, and was extremely slippery in this TD catch and run.

(8): In 2014 Toledo sported “Glass City” uniforms on a cold weekend night vs. their rival BGSU. Kareem Hunt had his longest run as a Rocket this night for a 92 yrd TD, which proved to be the difference in the game.

(7): In 2011 Toledo opened with a brutal schedule facing Ohio State, Boise State, and Syracuse out of conference. This 67 yard TD vs. Ohio State put the country on notice when Eric page took this screen the distance to go up 15-7 at the Horseshoe.

(6): In 2013 Toledo defeated many bowl teams including Navy in a 2OT thriller at the Glass Bowl. Future NFL OLB Jayrone Elliott made some noise with this strip 6 take back on that rainy Saturday.

(5): In 2011 Toledo’s amazing offensive season was capped by a Military Bowl appearance vs. Air Force. The defense had lots of takeaways in 2011, and this may be the biggest of all. Jermaine Robinson’s first mention on this list was a familiar site during his playing days at UT.

(4): In 2012 Toledo hosted then Big East member #19 Cincinnati on a Friday night in the Glass Bowl. The game featured all defensive and Special Teams points for the Rockets that day. UC QB Munchie Legaux will not forget this play as Jermaine Robinson zig zags his way into the endzone after the coverage INT.

(3): In 2013 Toledo found themselves in another dogfight with the team down South. The eventual MAC Champions didn’t get over their recent struggles with Toledo though, and this TD late in the game by Alonzo Russell was the difference.

(2): In 2017 Toledo found themselves down by 21 points in the first half to AAC member Tulsa. Lots of things had to happen for the Rockets to comeback, but this PAT block and run back by Josh Teachey was the most spectacular thing of the night. Saturday nights in the Glass Bowl is where magic happens...

(1): In 2018 Toledo recorded one of the top College Football plays of the decade. This seemingly impossible punt block was the talk of the country for one whole week. Cody Thompson...take it away!
