TOUCHDOWN!!!!
Good guys hold Hawaii to three and out, get a shank punt, then score with a short field.
But why the hell did we go for two?
6-0
Hope this doesn't come back to bite us on the butt.

Always hopeful; rarely optimistic.

If their receivers could keep their feet, they'd have scored by now.

Our pass rush is lacking and our secondary speed appears to haven’t taken the next step. Thus far anyway

So it appears we don't have the pass rush we needed, and we knew our DBs were weak. Not a good sign.

Temple, uh, I mean Hawaii scores. About to take the lead.
This doesn't get better, I am going back downstairs.

I didn’t like going for 2.
It negated momentum. There was no need for it.
And now we are down 1.

Let’s see if the O answers the bell and if there are adjustments that can be made on D.

Hawaii's so crafty, they kick the point after touchdown. We took that point off our board for some unknown reason. Ghost of Bad Coaches Past?

Going for 2 is the least of our concerns at this stage
