[ QUOTE ] Someone explain to me why Hawaii continually gets no love? I mean, they have zero losses while Ohio St has one and Ohio St's best win(Michigan) was ranked lower than Hawaii's best win(Boise St)....I just don't get it. [/ QUOTE ] Hawai'i's games last year verse BCS opponents--they return the same squad this year Alabama 25 v Hawai'i 17... Bama was 6-7 overall, 2-6 in SEC Hawai'i 42 v Purdue 35... Purdue was 8-6 overall, 5-3 in the Big11Ten (didn't play tOSU or Michigan) Oregon St 35 @ Hawai'i 32... ORegon St was 10-4 overall, 6-3 in Pac10 seems like Hawai'i is a mid-level BCS team the reason they haven't played any *real* schools is their own fault as well Michigan St backed out due to the absolutely horrid and documented mistreatment Hawai'i brings on opponents who come to the islands [/ QUOTE ] Fwiw, I'm pretty sure that it was Michigan who backed out and not MSU. |

FWIW, as I remember it, in the offseason after 2005, when Hawaii's AD was looking to fill a spot on the schedule left vacated by State, they called Michigan. Martin refused the game, because I think Hawaii offered a 2-1 series (2 games in Ann Arbor, 1 in Hawaii). So yeah, I don't think we ever agreed to play them. Instead of scheduling Hawaii, Michigan instead struck a deal with App State, who didn't ask us to go there. WTG Bill Martin! |
