NCAA Division I teams of the University of Toledo, with 6 men's and 10 women's teams competing in the Mid-American Conference. As with most major colleges, the most-followed sports are football and men's basketball, and the most important venues are on campus. The football team plays at the Glass Bowl, which was built during the Great Depression but renovated several times since, though it retains its original stonework. The basketball teams (men's and women's) play at Savage Arena, which also houses the central ticket office for all Rockets sports.
