Bowling

The Seattle Times' Bud Withers already knows the demolition that'll take place for whatever PAC-10 team comes down to play in the Hawaii Bowl.

This is what awaits the Pac-10 entry in Honolulu: A Hawaii team that has taken coach June Jones' old run-and-shoot offense — that's the one Portland State used in 1980 to beat Delaware State, 105-0 — to spectacular heights.

The Warriors (7-2) lead the nation in total offense (534 yards a game) and passing offense (429). The quarterback, Colt Brennan, has 39 touchdown passes and six interceptions. His 190 pass-efficiency rating is better than the NCAA season record by Shaun King of Tulane in 1998 (183.3).

So overwhelming has the Hawaii offense been, that it's almost a given Brennan will set the NCAA season record for touchdown passes if he stays healthy over four more games, all at home. That's 54, by Houston's David Klingler, in 1990.

I know the demolition is not a given, but June's UH teams historically have played their best football towards the end of the season, and look at where they are now. It would be great if the Warriors could play someone better than the 6th place PAC-10 team, but that's why contracts are signed I guess.
