Hawaii NEVER played Wisconsin in any Hawaii Bowl.
Meh, we were blown-out by them none-the-less...and Hawaii fans threw some major shade at the coach for losing so badly...and for having a losing season. Some running back...Melvin Gordon...just ran all over us. It was our coach's fault, of course.
Gordon was still in high school in 2009. It was John Clay that was RB for Wisconsin at that time.

LOL...I should probably fact check before posting. I became a fan of Wisconsin afterwards. Gordon was probably a star the following year. Speaking of former opponents, did anyone catch Monday Night Football. Carr just had a monster win in overtime. Wow...

My vote for best RB - Marshall Faulk, SDSU. Ron Dayne of Wisconsin piled up yards, but you could have driven a truck through the holes he had.

That's something I can't stand every time I see it. I told my family when that happened that If I was on the sidelines, I wouldn't be high-fiving and celebrating with the DB. I'd ask him, "What the hell are you doing, dude?"
When I play football on my Xbox, I don’t know how to have my CB drop those. :D
today, sept.18.2021, nebraska faced fourth and 18 at the oklahoma 23. nebraska qb passed to the three yard line where oklahoma defensive back graham made a spectacular one handed grab for an interception and the ball was downed at the oklahoma 3 yard line, instead of taking over at the 23 yard line.

defensive players just can't resist the int. worse, the play is being called the int of the century. oklahoma's coach wanted to challenge the catch hoping it was bobbled but replay clearly shows the pass was intercepted.
