Confidence

Some encouraging signs that Hawaii has greatly improved. Words from Davone Bess:

"Idaho actually played harder than USC and Michigan State," he said. "If we would've played like we did tonight against those two teams, we definitely would've been in the game."

Even if that's not true, at least the Warriors are getting confident.

Awards! From the Star-Bulletin:

Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan and defensive end/linebacker Kila Kamakawiwo'ole were named Western Athletic Conference offensive players of the week today.

Brennan completed 34 of 44 passes for 347 yards and three touchdowns Saturday in a 24-0 victory at Idaho, running his season total to 78-for-107, or 73 percent. He has passed for six touchdowns and just one interception (which was due to a receiver’s error as much as his own). He has thrown 103 passes since the lone interception, by USC’s Darnell Bing.

Kamakawiwo‘ole was in on six tackles. Two were for losses of 13 yards, including a sack of 8 yards. He also broke up a pass. Kamakawiwo‘ole was a defensive end last year. This season he usually aligns as an outside linebacker in UH’s 3-4 defense, freeing him up more to make big plays.
