28-21 at the half?? It's almost a basketball score. :hehe:

Good ol' fashioned shoot out... :woot: :dancing:

The Knicks can only hope to put up 28 in a half these days! :rofl:


Yeah, apparently Hawaii has a fairly highpowered offense. They lost 3 fumbles in the first half, though, which contributed to their deficit, no doubt. :sweat:

Yup, that doesn't help... Even worse if your defense is suspect. :sweat:

True that. :mrgreen:

They haven't allowed Washington to convert any 3rd downs, however, but they did give up a 4th down conversion. But, with Washington rushing for 6.3 yards per carry, and Hawaii getting 9.4, the defenses must not be too stout for either team. :hehe:

LOL, "porous" might be a better word. :hehe:

Cool, they are tied. Not a football fan, but I gotta see what all the craze is about. :mrgreen:

ETA: Yah, undefeated! I heard some people a few houses away screaming. Awesome stuff! :woot: Now if only they'd air the Haka...no such luck. :(

Hawaii go stay unbeaten. Bumbye dey bettah get to play in da kine BCS bowl game or da locals make big huhu.

Would have been awesome if ESPN showed the Haka, but it was after midnight here in California when the game ended, so they cut away real fast. Too bad.

Hawaii no ka oi!

I hate the BCS. Kansas is ranked lower and were beaten by Missouri and they get a BCS Bowl, while Missouri only get the damn Cotton Bowl. It's BS! :cursing:

I don't know what's up with the BCS computer... Maybe it's a Mac or something. :beaten: :hehe:

That's pretty much been the consensus of opinion ever since it got started. [/list:u]

Yeah, I guess they inserted the "C" in "BCS" to make it less obvious that it is "BS." :beaten:

That explains everything! :rofl:

Steelers are beating the Bengals rather handily, 24-10. :shakehead:

Colts pretty much lock up their division by beating the Jags, 28-25.

Eli Manning gets some redemption by leading the Giants to a 21-16 win over the Bears.

Nice to see the Saints (and the over-hyped Reggie Bush) lose to the Bucs, 27-23.

Vikes dominate the Lions, 42-10.
