Well, you have to assume that Kamehameha's running game was overrated from the start, or at least, that's what I thought. You figure, how can their running game be that good when 1.) They lost all but one member of last year's O-line to graduation, and 2.) Apelu is out for the season.Undftd wrote:from the scoring live article which i found interesting
"Punahou's defense was also able to shut down Kamehameha's vaunted running game. The Warriors entered the contest averaging 309 rushing yards per game. Punahou held them to just 14 yards of net rushing.
Out of Kamehameha's 26 rush attempts, nine failed to cross the line of scrimmage. The longest run that the Buffanblu allowed was just for five yards."
Kamehameha was piling-up all their rushing yards against teams with weak defenses. Still, though, Kamehameha should have had more than 14 yds rushing, even against Punahou. That's probably why Kamehameha dropped so badly in the rankings after that. Kamehameha's O-line didn't look good at all.
