Just like Illinois couldn't hang with us this year... :roll1:

Are you fucking serious? Really? Hawaii could give this Ohio State team a game? And you're basing that on our Illinois and Penn State games right?

Those are teams that actually have live human beings on defense, not the stiffs the Rainbows trott out there.

I'm sure next you're going to say that Hawaii could beat Michigan, as if Colt Brennan wouldn't be sitting on his ass all game.

Do you really believe:

A. That Hawaii's defense would be able to slow down Ohio State... at all? :slappy:

B. That Hawaii's offense would do to Ohio State's defense what they normally do, or even close to that? Yeah, Purdue's defense vs. Ohio State's.... :roll1:

C. That June fucking Jones could outcoach Jim Tressel, which is what he would have to do to keep it close because of the massive talent disparity.



WHY ARE WE EVEN HAVING THIS DISCUSSION? :smash: :smash:

In 1986, Hawaii was a mediocre 7-5 team, which had coincidentally beat Wisconsin in the second game of the season (at Hawaii).

In 1998, Hawaii was the worst team in college football and had lost the previous week to Northwestern by the nearly identical score of 47-21.

Results from a decade and two decades ago aren't indicative of the offensive juggernaught they have now, which is why they've been able to beat mid-level Big Ten teams at home over the last few years. And their defense isn't nearly as bad this year. Again, I'm not saying they'd beat us (I seriously doubt they would), they'd give us more of a game than most here (who are lucky to have seen them play once or twice this year) would acknowledge.

For any Browns to get to Hawaii, they'd first have to go to the Pro Bowl.

I'll stop there. :slappy:

I don't know about that. Dr. Pepper might invite Tim Couch to participate in that halftime contest where you have to throw a football throw a hole in a giant pop can. Of course, he'll get sacked during the contest, and Dr. Pepper will save a million bucks.

Ah yes ... Tim Couch. The first product of a Mike Leach offense before anyone realized there was such a thing as a product of a Mike Leach offense.

You know what, you all are right and am I wrong, seeing I haven't seen Hawaii play at all and you all have seen every single Hawaii home game over the past fix years. Oh wait... :roll1:

Michigan wasn't supposed to score 39 fucking points on us--on our field--but they did. And don't give me the "But we turned the ball over three times in our own territory" shit. Those 3 TOs resulted in 10 points...they scored the other 29 via a solid blend of rushing and passing. While Hawaii clearly relies more on passing, they do have a solid running attack behind a fucking bull of a tailback, Nate Ilaoa, who is 5'9", 260 with the agility and moves of a guy 40-50 pounds lighter...his season rush stats are 105-845 (8.2 ypc) and 12 TDs, and he also has 57 catches for 714 yards (12.5 ypc) and 5 TDs receiving out of the backfield. The Purdue game this past weekend was a great example. Whenever Purdue started playing the pass, Ilaoa would bust off runs of 8-12 yards...he absolutely trucked two defenders on one run. Also, Hawaii thrives on the very same crossing routes and deep middle routes that give us fits, and their two top WRs Bess and Rivers would be starting on all but a few teams in the country (Bess would be our #3 WR here behind Gonzo and Ginn). They are that good. Hell, Hawaii had 653 yards of offense on Purdue (434 passing, 219 rushing), which is far more than Purdue gave up to any other team this year. Their offensive scheme is the kind that would give us a serious challenge.
