Warriors won't get any rest
POSTED: Monday, October 13, 2008
The schedule doesn't allow the Hawaii football team much time for rest and recovery this week.
TOUGH TASKHawaii's defense has had a little trouble in its last three trips to Boise State:
|
Normally Mondays are devoted to film study plus some running, lifting and recuperating from the previous game. But with a nationally televised showdown at No. 15 Boise State coming up on Friday, the Warriors' plans will be compressed by a day as they began practice preparations this morning for their second road game against a nationally ranked opponent in a three-week span.
“;We'll try to keep it like a normal game week,”; UH coach Greg McMackin said yesterday. “;Everything's a day early for the coaches, but it's just something you have to do.”;
Hawaii (3-3, 2-1 Western Athletic Conference) upset then-No. 22 Fresno State on Oct. 4, and took care of business vs. Louisiana Tech with a 24-14 win Saturday to set up the showdown with the Broncos (5-0, 1-0). The game will be televised on ESPN.
The Warriors wrested the WAC title from the Broncos last season with a 39-27 win at Aloha Stadium, ending Boise State's five-year reign. This time Hawaii will make the trip to Idaho to play on Bronco Stadium's blue turf, where Boise State is 35-1 since 2003.
Boise State, the WAC's remaining candidate for a BCS berth, stayed at No. 15 in the Associated Press poll following a 24-7 win at Southern Mississippi on Saturday, led by freshman quarterback Kellen Moore, who ranks sixth in the country in passing efficiency.
