Hm. UH vs. Georgia. Should be an interesting game. They probably think that they should have gotten a shot at the NC game and they've been playing well.
One more game for UH (and the WAC) to prove that we can hang with the big boys!

Now we will see...
Can Hawaii break out of the WAC?
Seriously... Its going to be interesting to watch a speedy defense on that Oline of y'alls. Not to mention the JuneWouldThrow offense against an SEC defense. I'm excited to finally see Hawaii play a team that the rest of the nation thinks is worth playing.
BTW, I'll be in the Crescent City with Hawaii tags on my Georgia truck... Waikiki ain't got nuttin on New Orleans. Lets have some fun and watch the Sugar fall from the sky!

BCS = Bull Chit System!!
As a Dawg fan, I'm proud we're playing you guys. I DON'T think we should be playing for the national title. Not with two loses. However, you guys deserve a shot at it. Georgia's a good team on a winning streak. You take away the two loses from early in the season (South Carolina and Tennessee) and we would be playing in the BC. With reality aside.... GOOD LUCK IN THIS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP! (#1 Hawaii vs. #2 Georgia) :)

Hey everyone, UGA fans are ticked off about not being in the championship. Looks like they'd like to take it out on our boys in New Orleans. They think they going tear us apart.
Get amped up, support our Warriors how we can, get any relatives or friends near there to go and cheer for the boys! Go UH!

Hey Warrior fans, I am a huge Georgia fan but I couldn't be more excited for Hawaii. I have watched you guys on TV the last two weeks and I have fallen in love with this team you guys have. Colt Brennan really is the man, I hope he tears it up against us, wouldn't mind seeing you guys beat us. Best of luck!

Just got banned from Espn message board for defending June Jones because of the comments he made on the BCS Espn show. Florida fans are jumping all over JJ but most of this comes from the comments made by Kirk Herbstreit (a notorious Warriors hater). Go Warriors!! Class of 73'

WarriorDawgs.... You obviously ARE NOT a huge georgia fan to say something like that. I am quite interested in seeing how this game plays out.
Georgia has struggled against teams that use timing passes and screens a lot. Looks like we should have a fight on our hands, but don't count on your recievers to be very open and be sure that you will be hearing some pads CRACK!
Oh and tell your QB to get out of bounds if he can. That Fresno State play was just vicious and he needs to protect himself. Good luck and congrats on your great season and BCS bowl. Lets ALL have some fun down in the Big Easy.

we appreciate the great comments, dawg fans. like lizkauai said, it should be a great mix of southern hospitality and aloha spirit. as for the game, i keep hearing the georgia front seven will be a handful, though they probably haven't seen an offense quite like ours. and it'll be a great test for the warriors' D trying to slow down the bulldogs' run game. great matchups all around, can't wait!

I went to UH during the 'Bows era... I still remember when we beat BYU for the first time using a spread offense but with triple options. Garrett was GREAT in that evening. Back to the Sugar Bowl, stats on the paper don't do any good when the game start. Only the team with bigger hearts will be stronger and faster on that day! Aloha Spirit will be the difference! Go 'Bows!!!
