Re: *****OFFICIAL WESTERN CAROLINA GAME THREAD*****
I agree,
If you listen to Coach Rolo Post game press conference he says it all. Just listen to the players post game press conference Dylan Collie also acknowledges the Filthy Win... This Hawaii team is winning because they are bigger, faster and more talented than UMass and Western Carolina. I mean if you looked at Western Carolina O-line and D-line against Hawaii humongous O-line and D-line it was no wonder why both Hawaii RB's had a monster rushing game.
I don't think this years Hawaii team knows it yet, but just by the eye ball test this 2017 Hawaii team has the size, speed and talent to compete with Power 5 teams and win the MWC West Division... maybe even win the MWC outright. The coaching staff has done a great job preparing the young men for UMASS and WCU. Rolo wants a marquee win against Power 5 team UCLA led by the highly touted QB Josh Rosen and Rolo knows that the mental mistakes and unsportmanlike penalties are going to doom this team against Power 5 and MWC teams. I have said it before but this Hawaii team is way better than what has been displayed against UMASS and WCU. This team needs to dig in to the Cerebral part of football and has to clean up the penalties, mental errors and not rely on just their physical superiority to win games.

When you consider where this program was just 2-years ago, Rolo has done a bang up job working with what little he's got.

Yes, we've had ugly wins and need to clean up our game but I'm confident that they will. Then, watch out, we'll be tough to beat at home and on the road.

Re: *****OFFICIAL WESTERN CAROLINA GAME THREAD*****
Did you say "speed and talent of big 5"? Are you kidding? There maybe be a handful of guys that would start at a P5 team. Size might match , but definitively not talent and speed. Look at our DE , LBs and DBs they dont have comparable speed across the table. There's limited pressire from the front 7 against $hitty teams and they can't contain WC and UMass RBs, so highly doubtful theyd be competitive against the P5 teams. I love the Warriors, but I don't wear rose colored glasses or drink too much of the kool aid.WarriorTyme wrote: ↑Sun Sep 03, 2017 7:05 amI agree,
