2023 Arizona Bowl: Toledo Rockets vs. Wyoming Cowboys Predictions
BetMGM: Wyoming will win
Staff writes: "Based on recent trends, the winning team model predicts Wyoming will win this bowl game with 52.1% confidence."
ESPN: Toledo has a 52% chance to win
According to the ESPN Matchup Predictor, the Toledo Rockets have a 52.7% chance of beating the Wyoming Cowboys in the 2023 Arizona Bowl.
Action Network: Wyoming -3.5
Staff writes: "The Rockets are elite against the pass but just mediocre at stopping the run, which is what Wyoming wants to do on offense. From a motivation angle, the Cowboys have a clear edge. They will be at full strength and highly motivated to send the winningest coach in program history into retirement with one final victory. Toledo is coming off a disappointing loss in the MAC Championship and has to pick itself up without its key players. Plus, the Rockets are just 2-4 in bowl games under head coach Jason Candle. Over the last 20 years, the loser of the MAC Championship game has gone just 6-14 in their bowl game. So, give me the Pokes in the Arizona Bowl."
