That's what everyone is saying this week in Hawaii.

Sure Hawaii doesn't stand much of a chance. Shoots, no one goes into Boise and is favored nowadays. They play well in all facets of the game, players, plays, coaching, even the blue field. OK, their stadium could use some upgrading.

Just don't count out Hawaii too quick.

The Warriors still play that June Jones style of run and shoot offense.

They were picked next to last this year in the WAC. Currently they're tied for first with Boise, unbeaten in WAC play.

Hawaii has only lost two games. They came out with the short stick in a shootout with Southern Cal in their first game, 49-36. They also lost to Colorado in Boulder tho they led at the half 10-0.

Hawaii use to be terrible on the road but this year they beat Army and more notably blasted Fresno State in their own stadium.

Hawaii also beat ranked and unbeaten Nevada and Colin Kaepernick, 27-21. The score wouldn't have been so close but Nevada made a valiant effort late in the 4th but fell short.

Warrior QB Bryant Moniz leads the nation in passing. Landry is 4th. He's the only QB with over 3,000 yards.

Hawaii also boasts 2 or the nation's top receivers. Greg Salas is #1 and Kealoha Pilares is 4th. Ryan Broyles is #3. Some Aggie is #2.

Hawaii's defense is much like OU's, just not so talented across the board. They give up a lot of yards on the ground and in the air and try to hold on late in the game.

I'm not predicting a Hawaii victory, but I'm saying they have a chance. Hawaii has won 5 in a row and has improved as the season progresses, just what you want in a good team.

It'll be on an ESPN channel, I think ESPNU.

Go Bows !!!!........er.....Warriors.

That rainbow warrior has swagger. I like the pre game Haka dance. Wait, it's haka in NZ, is it the same in Howareya?

Hawaii still does the Haka pregame. They've altered it from the Maori version (all the Polynesian Islands had haka-type displays of attitude before a scrap)

A few years ago they were warned not to deliberately taunt the opposing team so they did it up on a hill off the field at La Tech and that dumbazz Dooley had the refs call a 15 yarder on Hawaii.......before the game even started.

Sad to say but it's true. Greg Mackovic used to be DC at Texass Tech and like Stoops is defensive minded. It's just that both teams this season seem to be offensive at times, if you get my drift.

Hawaii was underdogs in 3 other games they shoulda lost but didn't. They have the ability to score points very fast.

Just sayin' they'll not roll over. Of course I wish the game was at Aloha Stadium.

If the entire 1st string Offense AND Defense committed seppuku. I'd give the Rainbow Warriors a chance. Peterson is a damn fine coach and gets alot out of them boyzee.

That being said, Give 'em hell!!!!
