#1 Ohio State defeats University of Hawaii 38-0

While the Ohio State Buckeyes are 1-0 on the season following their win last Monday night over Virginia Tech, Saturday afternoon they’re taking on Hawaii for their first home game of the season.

In truth, it really doesn’t matter what the Rainbow Warriors wear Saturday. It’s safe to say he will not become the fourth Heisman QB (Ty Detmer, Carson Palmer, Matt Leinhart) mentored by Hawaii coach Norm Chow. “We know who were playing”.”Thank God for our defense”, he said.

We can all blame former Hawaii football coach June Jones for Hawaii dropping the rainbow image in the first place. So when word broke about the uniform Hawaii plans to wear this weekend when they head to the mainland to visit defending national champion Ohio State, I was pleasantly surprised. He threw two interceptions to Ohio State’s Bell and Gareon Conley.

Ohio State set a school record in its opener by averaging 10.2 yards per play. But many younger fans might be unaware of the long, odd history surrounding Hawaii‘s rainbow outfits. They also will come back in two weeks to play at Wisconsin September 26. Bringing in J.T. Barrett for Cardale Jones at quarterback didn’t change much, unfortunately.

H-Back Braxton Miller. A similar crowd is expected Saturday, but sophomore cornerback Nick Nelson said the Rainbow Warriors won’t be intimidated. This season the team will cover 40,122 miles by air for road games.

He noted Thursday was spent practicing special teams compared to a normal week when the work is done on Tuesdays.

The Hokies had some success getting the ball downfield, but that was expected. However, it is important for college football programs to stay true to their identities. A pile of players from both teams attempted to corral the loose ball before linebacker Darron Lee initially scooped it up and ran down the field. He is expected to start against the Buckeyes.

Finally they just put it on the shoulders of their great tailback, running behind his big buddies on the offensive line, and as usual Ezekiel Elliott came through. “We’ve got a lot of guys on this team who are playmakers”, Samuel said.

One week after dropping Colorado 28-20 on the strength of Max Wittek’s three touchdown passes, UH could manage just 165 yards and no points against the talented, swarming OSU defense.
