We don't have the hourses to plat this system. A la Pappas Chow's O, no Reggie Bush. CC needs to sit...hemis passes are either too high or to low- $hiity touch like T Chang.
The D was pushed around. Luckily Chip showed mercy.

If someone is more athletic, bigger the scheme can level things out. With everything being short, UH condensed the D more and made it impossible to succeed.UnBiasFan wrote: ↑Sat Aug 28, 2021 9:01 pmI think it was more than the scheme or play calling …. their D looked pretty impressive, at least matched up against usPalolo_2LA wrote: ↑Sat Aug 28, 2021 6:29 pm Horrific offensive scheme...everything 5 yards and under.

The throws by CC were very inaccurate, a few passes were dropped and special teams wasn't special. This is wk 1 and simply a better team in all ways, so I can live w/that.
Be humble and confident in yourself and all things you do.

We were pretty unlucky. When was the last time you saw a punter take a knee before punting the ball? I'd say...never. Their running backs looked pretty professional--they didn't give up on a run. Also, that blocked punt to end the game was pretty ridiculous. Do we have a new long-snapper or punter?
I think it was not so much a tune-up game as a wake-up call. Our seniors gotta look at a lot of tape and figure it out quickly.

Re: *****OFFICIAL HAWAII VS. UCLA GAME THREAD*****
The punter was fielding a bad snap. Maybe they need more bad snap drills. But I would just call it a freak accident and move on. He got off a hell of a punt.SundayJam wrote: ↑Sun Aug 29, 2021 2:24 am We were pretty unlucky. When was the last time you saw a punter take a knee before punting the ball? I'd say...never.

That was ugly yesterday. It was one game but the offense was offensive to watch.

36k is the largest crowd in many ears.
Re: *****OFFICIAL HAWAII VS. UCLA GAME THREAD*****
I want to see how the team does next couple games, the 1st quarter got away from us, mostly thought we shouldnʻt have had the jitters, veteran team. we pretty much held up second half, positive to build on
Re: *****OFFICIAL HAWAII VS. UCLA GAME THREAD*****
if we go back to JJ's mantra in 1999 of going at least 2-1 in each quarter of the season, we still can salvage that. that team got wallop'd by USC and won their next 2. can we do the same?

Re: *****OFFICIAL HAWAII VS. UCLA GAME THREAD*****
I saw some things that I liked, and a lot of things I didn't like. I'm not worried yet. If we struggle with Portland State next week, then the sky is falling. Let's hope UCLA beats LSU next week.
Re: *****OFFICIAL HAWAII VS. UCLA GAME THREAD*****
Unfortunately there were not very many positives to take away from this game. Manhandled and out coached in all phases. Warriors need to rebound against Portland State in a big way this week.

Reminded me of the 2017 game at the Rose Bowl when Rolo and the RNS couldn't get anything done either and lost 56-23

Re: *****OFFICIAL HAWAII VS. UCLA GAME THREAD*****
I remember that year. Two weeks afterwards in the Warriors next game, Hawaii almost beat Wyoming in Laramie but lost 28-21 in OT.BigWave96744 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 30, 2021 3:49 pm Reminded me of the 2017 game at the Rose Bowl when Rolo and the RNS couldn't get anything done either and lost 56-23

We were not yet running the R&S in 2017. it was read option/RPO with TE's like Tui Unga (his family had a huge tailgate and roasted a whole pig in the parking lot!). Dru Brown was still QB (though Cole McDonald had a long TD run in garbage time). 2018 CSU was the first time Rolo's R&S was used.BigWave96744 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 30, 2021 3:49 pm Reminded me of the 2017 game at the Rose Bowl when Rolo and the RNS couldn't get anything done either and lost 56-23

I thought Josh Allen was overrated after watching that game. I'm happy to have been wrong about that, however!wyokie wrote: ↑Mon Aug 30, 2021 4:19 pmI remember that year.

Safe bet Buffalo Bills fans are thrilled he isn't overrated. He just might give them the one thing Jim Kelly couldn't.
