Another big run for Dawkins and Arizona goes ahead of #HawaiiFB 13-0 on the 14-yard scamper. He leads UA in rushing at 67 yards.

Making it to the FBS level from Laie is no joke. Hawaii needs to discover guys like this in the more rural parts of Oahu and the outer islands to achieve any sustained success. Tougher than one might think to get someone to move to Hawaii.

JOHN URSUA! Woolsey connects twice for the long play & then the score! First for 38 yards & then a 15-yarder! UA 20, #HawaiiFB 7 - 1:10 Q1

Jerrol Garcia-Williams, Hawaii’s defensive MVP tonight

CLUTCH 3rd down stop on the tackle by Garcia-Williams after the UH TD. Arizona 4th down coming up at end of Q1.

Called back touchdown was to former Colts WR Austin Collie’s younger brother

Big #HawaiiFB touchdown play negated by a holding call here in the 2nd.

Gameday! Good luck to little bro @23Collie and excited to see the @byucougars live in their… https://t.co/foIQTZVYtz

Ikaika Woolsey might be better if Hawaii was running Arizona’s offense. Dru Brown should be the guy, so much more accurate, it’s not close.

#HawaiiFB goes for it on 4th and 4 from the 41 and misses on the throw to Timoteo. Arizona takes over with 12:28 in Q2.

No QB controversy next week. @hawaiifb has a bye. #staradvertiser

— Stephen Tsai (@StephenTsai) September 18, 2016

@HawaiiFootball Go into the bye week, prepare Dru Brown as Hawaii's starting quarterback. It's obvious he has better poise and control.

— Kevin Kawamura (@chawk96732) September 18, 2016

The growth of Steven Lakalaka has been impressive. He also happens to be from the same school as Sani Fuimaono and yours truly. He hasn’t had the easiest transition from high school to college, probably got reps before he was ready due to depth, but has started to turn the lights on and run with vision.

TOUCHDOWN! Easy draw for Lakalaka puts #HawaiiFB on the board.

Arizona 37, UH 14 - 4:04 Q3

— Hawaii Football (@HawaiiFootball) September 18, 2016

Another rushing touchdown for the battering ram wearing #4 for @HawaiiFootball.

— Ian Scheuring (@IanScheuring) September 18, 2016

TOUCHDOWN! Lakalaka powers through tackles for his 2nd score on the 6-yard rush.
