Coach Mack Show, Weekly Presser, Bye Week

Hawaii News Now has this week's Coach Mack Show up on their website.

HawaiiAthletics.com has quotes from Greg McMackin's weekly press conference. Here's one:

On rebounding from the loss…
This is our bye week, but we’re going to work for the next three days. After today we’re going to start working on San Jose State. We had our chance, we didn’t get it done. Not many people beat them (Boise State) there. So we’re going to move on to the next game. We don’t want to be like a James Madison either. We fought through the Fresnos and Nevada (and) had a nice streak going. These aren’t gimmes coming up. Virgina Tech lost to James Madison after they lost to Boise State. We can’t afford to do that.

Stephen Tsai looks ahead to the final games of the season, and writes about the injured players who will get much needed rest and recuperation during the bye week.

Quarterback Bryant Moniz, slotback Kealoha Pilares, right tackle Laupepa Letuli, defensive tackles Vaughn Meatoga and Kaniela Tuipulotu, linebacker Corey Paredes, cornerback Jeramy Bryant and kicker Scott Enos are among the Warriors recovering from ailments.

McMackin said he is hopeful rover Spencer Smith will be available against San Jose State on Nov. 20. Smith missed six games because of a fractured right forearm. He aggravated the forearm during the first defensive series against Boise State.

"It's sore," Smith said. "I have to keep rehabbing it."
