I’ve been a fan of Hawaii football for a couple years now ever since I noticed Colt Brennan’s cartoon-like stats. The team has always intrigued me because they have basically no running game yet are able to smoke defenses with their aerial circus. Tonight they had the opportunity to beat their division rival Boise State whom they’ve never beaten before and possibly get some cred with the BCS. Well, Brennan stepped up and put up 494 yards with 5 TDs, while Hawaii’s top three receivers all grabbed over a hundred yards in their 39-27 victory.
All-in-all it was a great game that further solidified how awesome June Jones is and more importantly why Colt Brennan should be seriously be considered for the Hiesman (Dennis Dixon and Pat White are beyond overrated).
Don’t let all this Colt Brennan talk fool you into thinking I’m not a strong supporter of our local talent. I still think Tim Tebow is the best all around quarterback in NCAA football this season. I guess you could say that Colt is my quarterback on the side.
Hawaii and Colt are the best thing since sliced bread. I would love to see Hawaii vs Florida for the QB challenge.
