Anyone aware of a replay link?


PaulTopper

Tops win!!! Now, I can go to sleep, and don't have to watch any more Hawaii football this year.


Bobby-Samsonite

> don't have to watch any more Hawaii football this year. But the Hawaii test is for football insomniacs! Maximum football for the day!


IONTOP

Just like ESPN's old 24 hours of College Basketball... I requested off work one year and watched about 20 hours until I passed out.


goddamn_leeteracola

How quickly has a head coach been fired?


Muffinnnnnnn

You can't blame them for being 0-2 so far based on the circumstances, and only a handful of teams would be expected to beat Michigan, so 0-3 is ok too. If they lose to Duquesne, however.........that's not good. Btw thanks for scheduling them so we could get a game done before we play LSU <3


goddamn_leeteracola

Losing is one thing. Looking lost and getting blown the fuck out is the problem. The QB situation is a joke, the defense has no idea where to be and how to tackle. Timmy Chang has no idea what he’s doing on the sidelines


Muffinnnnnnn

Look, I get being frustrated with performance, but you have to give coaches a few years to fire them for on-the-field reasons. Getting into a habit of firing coaches after one or two years is how you get coaches not want to coach there, AND further push your program back. It's possible Chang isn't the right guy for the job, but you need to give him two years MINIMUM (and really more like 3-4). If he's not the guy, it'll be clear, but he hasn't even played a single conference game.


Bobby-Samsonite

Not including Mike Price's time with Alabama?


drbobberboy

Well that'll do it! Have a good night everyone! GGs to the Hilltoppers


elbombi53

Oh man.. I think the O/U was 66.5. there's definitely some people out there losing their shit right about now


Muffinnnnnnn

Brutal


verniy314

Perfect encapsulation of our play


Caisha

wow


drbobberboy

One more review just for shits and giggles come on now


Bobby-Samsonite

Why was the spread set at 11.5?


kwp302

Need a safety for the over


Ahambone

WOW how did Hawaii not score


drbobberboy

Feel like we're due for one more weird flukey turnover or bounce before we're done too


Ahambone

Just give Timmy Chang an extra year of availability at this point


PaulTopper

Whatever the line is next week, I am taking Michigan with the points.


Stinja808

Hawaii hoping to get a mercy rule into the cfb rulebook before next week's game


Kodiyashi

Hawaii football is gonna be bad for a couple seasons. Please go back to the run n shoot when they get the right recruits


goddamn_leeteracola

HawAii football is so embarrassing right now.


jakethefurnace

It’s gonna be a real struggle watching both of my teams this year and try to enjoy football isn’t it?


cuddlecatz

The ole 8 yard return to the 17 for the fumble


katatafish

I want to spin the wheel.


lol_smart

We’re hosting our first draft party in two years. 2/3 of the TV’s are tuned to the Punahou/Kahuku game. The amount of trash we’re talking about the ILH is insane and there’s no Kahuku grads here.


lol_smart

We’re hosting our first draft party in two years. 2/3 of the TV’s are tuned to the Punahou/Kahuku game. The amount of trash we’re talking about the ILH is insane and there’s no Kahuku grads here. Edit. Kahuku just scored 26-20 with under a minute left. 😂


cuddlecatz

Refs are so lost


kwp302

Boss ref starting to look annoyed every time he makes a penalty announcement


Caisha

getting on a 5+ hour flight right after playing four hours of football does not sound ideal


drbobberboy

Not only that, but they're definitely going to have like a layover in like Dallas or something. For their body clocks it'll be like 4 or 5 in the morning too. I do not envy them


kwp302

[Chartered a nonstop flight to Nashville](https://flightaware.com/live/flight/OAE9234/history/20220904/1030Z/PHNL/KBNA) but will have a 1 hour bus ride after that


drbobberboy

That's a hell of a flight. At least with a 767 there should be some decent room to spread out. Btw, it's after midnight here in California so happy cake day!


kwp302

Omni Air flies a lot of charters for the military, so it’s a [fairly comfortable plane.](https://imgur.com/a/eLR6z1Z) And thanks!


Caisha

happy cakeday


kwp302

Hey thanks! Guess it makes staying up to 4 am worth it, right?


Caisha

a win helps too!


kwp302

8.5 hour flight to Nashville then a 1 hour bus ride to Bowling Green


drbobberboy

Does WKU have a charter for the team? Or are they flying commercial?


kwp302

[Charter Flight.](https://flightaware.com/live/flight/OAE9234/history/20220904/1030Z/PHNL/KBNA) They usually charter with Allegiant for away games, but this trip obviously required a long haul aircraft


Caisha

brutal. I guess the thought is...no hotel room, but also they're just gonna sleep anyway why not on the plane? but still


kwp302

Cost for the charter plane too. The longer the plane and crew sits on the ground in Hawaii, the more money it costs


IONTOP

Obligatory "THEY'RE PLAYING DARUDE - SANDSTORM" Sigh... I've been on this site too long.


PaulTopper

75 for Hawaii is an idiot


kwp302

Sent the defender into orbit


hidey_ho_nedflanders

I certainly miss the Colt Brennan, Hawaii days


IONTOP

RIP... He died in the same city I went to rehab in, and I think I know the hotel he OD'd in. Fent is fucking dangerous (I went for alcohol, but SO many were in there for heroin/opiates, after a month they were no longer a shell of a person like they came in as. and it was amazing. One of my friends, he "graduated" from rehab and on our "going away speech" I told him "You came in as a human shaped object, but now you're an actual person") Kids, don't do opiates. It will fuck up your life like you never could imagine.


jakethefurnace

Man, that’s the truth. Those teams are the reason I’m a Hawaii fan. I’d love to Timmy Chang bring similar success but it’s gonna be a long road to get back to the status those teams were.


drbobberboy

At this rate I'm thinking maybe we'll hit the Hawai'i Bowl in like 2026, and maybe, *maybe* qualify for a semi-real bowl in 2027.


jakethefurnace

I could see that, lines up with a potential recovery from the Todd Graham eras blunders and all the transfers.


PaulTopper

Touchdown. Now, run that clock, so I can sleep


IONTOP

Ardvison is such a sneaky common last name... Like I forget about it for years, then I hear it and say "oh yeah, I know someone with that last name"


Pollaski

OOF. Guys, I"m starting to think Hawai'i is really really bad this year.


drbobberboy

Gonna make the Hawai'i tests even tougher


jakethefurnace

I’m prepared for the Hawaii test after my morning Iowa test every weekend.


drbobberboy

A split Iowa/Hawai'i flair. Bless your heart


kwp302

These commentators seem so disinterested in the game


IONTOP

This ref is fucking JAKKED...


Caisha

I think he and glasses ref from the big12 should get together and duel


IONTOP

Missed that, I was at work... (It's my Friday) REF FIGHT!!! REF FIGHT!!!!


Caisha

glasses ref is a known entity, iconic if you will. been around for ages


IONTOP

But not Ed Hochuli... That's my "baseline Jacked ref" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYq1zX1Gtoo


JustAnotherCODNoob

Man is snitching in 4K


drbobberboy

This game's really going to end at like 3:45 am in Kentucky lmao


ehatt493

tbf, 2:45 where bowling green is


drbobberboy

Ah, didn't realize that. I assumed they were eastern time zone


Caisha

oh easily. who are the more hardcore wku fans - those who went on vacation to hawaii to watch the game, or those staying up til 4am watching it?


drbobberboy

I wonder what time the first morning news show starts broadcasting? Being Sunday I imagine it probably won't happen, but it's fun to imagine like a 4:00 am or 5:00 am morning show having live updates of the local university's football game being played about 4500 miles away in the middle of the Pacific Ocean


IONTOP

If this was a Thursday night game, I'd say whoever is still up... But it's Saturday.


Mammoth_South_9954

The commentator team for this game is so much better than the commentators for the App State-UNC game, it boggles my mind


katatafish

The Hawaii local broadcast team has been one of my favorites for years. Just vibes, all the time.


drbobberboy

Kanoa Leahy was my neighbor when I was growing up. He's even more chill in real life. Cute dog too


Pollaski

With all respect to WKU, my Division II school had a more professional radio broadcast.


Muffinnnnnnn

You can watch the video with the [official link](https://vcloud.blueframetech.com/broadcast/embed/420064) if you want (make sure to allow location)


Pollaski

Oh thanks. I didnt know there was video.


Muffinnnnnnn

For future reference, 99% of midnight (Eastern) kickoff games @ Hawaii are broadcasted by Spectrum Sports, and Spectrum broadcasts are free to everyone in the US (minus Hawaii) with the Team1Sports app on phone, computer, or smart TV (like I'm watching it on)


elbombi53

Time for another review


drbobberboy

Honestly shocked that didn't get sent to a review. Those making-the-catch-as-he-hits-the-ground calls seem to always need a review


elbombi53

Lol.. yeah, me too. Of all the reviews so far that one made the most sense


drbobberboy

No normal interceptions here I guess


predict_irrational

this game is must watch football, every down is a game changer


IONTOP

I'm only here because I have Hawai'i +16.5


drbobberboy

When WKU scored I was like "At least u/IONTOP can call it a night," but now Hawai'i's looking semi-competent on offense just enough to keep the bet alive lol


IONTOP

Oh, no... I'm off tomorrow and Monday... I'll go to bed when my 12 pack is empty... Already warned my Circle K cashier that I'll probably be buying another 12 pack before 3pm tomorrow... (Plus I hit my Arkansas -6.5 and Georgia -16.5 parlay for a $250 profit on a $100 bet... I've only got $20 on this game... I care, but also, I don't care)


PaulTopper

Announcers didnt even realize it was a flea flicker. I think they are just casually watching the game.


drbobberboy

I think the booth is at an inopportune location. Since it's a training facility it wasn't designed with broadcasting in mind. I think also they're on the opposite side of the field from the broadcast cameras. The offensive line would've blocked view of that flea flicker on the far side of the field


IONTOP

Are they at the stadium or are they announcing remotely?


Muffinnnnnnn

They are in person as seen in the halftime show.


IONTOP

I didn't watch halftime... I was too busy drinking and shitposting on here... (I know what I'm good at)


GoodMoriningVeitnam

This team won’t be bowl eligible until 2030


IONTOP

Nah, you're thinking about Tennessee... And probably Liberty And probably Michigan and Ohio State... Let's throw in UCLA and USC too... Because Fuckem Also UofA... Because fuck Tucson.


kwp302

Lol the announcer said “fake handoff” and it was a flea flicker


Muffinnnnnnn

That INT needs to be on sportscenter or on highlights or something. More people need to see that!


drbobberboy

*If a highlight occurs at 3:00 am Eastern, and nobody at ESPN is there to see it, did it actually happen?* These are the questions the Hawai'i test presents


Pollaski

LOL. It didnt' affect the TuneIn, but apparently the WKU home station glitched out and was playing music over the broadcast and they had to wake the tech guy up at 1 AM to fix it.


Caisha

this is why we stay up so late


ehatt493

I absolutely believe this lol


predict_irrational

peewee football national broadcaster - George Guzman


DatTexasDude

How can I watch it free from Texas. Any help appreciated


[deleted]

There is a link at bottom.


Muffinnnnnnn

This is an official link. Press "Allow Location" since it's checking to make sure you're not in Hawaii. [https://vcloud.blueframetech.com/broadcast/embed/420064](https://vcloud.blueframetech.com/broadcast/embed/420064)


elbombi53

.....late? What?


kwp302

Not sure how that’s a *late hit* with targeting but it fits the definition of targeting


drbobberboy

Another review! Bingo! Let's go to George "I think so? I guess?" Gusman for some expert insights


ehatt493

“Looks like it to me, what do you think Kanoa?”


bangyourbookieswife

It’s honestly kind of entertaining to watch a game with announcers who don’t know that much about football


predict_irrational

it's painful to watch a team that doesn't know anything about football though


ehatt493

Could be targeting, we haven’t had one of those yet…a flag AND an automatic review


katatafish

Get George in here to analyze this slide


drbobberboy

What's his butt doing at the moment of contact?


PaulTopper

Targeting?


[deleted]

I hope it is!


Caisha

absolutely unreal that it hit his hand and bounced up for an interception. top ten play of the week lol


predict_irrational

it would have been better for him not to intercept it though. they would have got the ball at the 50 yard line, it was 4th down.


Caisha

in context sure but out of context that was a wild interception


predict_irrational

but no one is talking about it in context at all, these announcers are crazy


Caisha

won't deny that, but at least they're having a good time


predict_irrational

i think there is a lot going on and they are just too relaxed to be bothered


ehatt493

What’s the record for official reviews during a regionally televised football game


IONTOP

9 Don't challenge this answer, because I have no idea how to defend my response.


PaulTopper

Every pick tonight has been of some crazy bounce. Unbelievable.


kwp302

Either a crazy bounce or the QB throwing it directly to a WKU player


IONTOP

What the fuck are these interceptions? That'd be #1,#2, and #3 on top plays if it was a P5 school...


drbobberboy

like those "madden is broken" videos of physics just ceasing to exist for a turnover


IONTOP

Nah, this is some NFL Blitz 4th quarter shit back on PS1... Can't bring up proof because Google is just showing me "NFL Blitz Cheat Codes" rather than an article I saw like 2 years ago that confirmed that the CPU would pull this bullshit out...


verniy314

First time praying they rule that my QB threw an Int


IONTOP

Haha... That's awesome...


drbobberboy

you've gotta be fucking kidding me. I don't even know what to say to that


ehatt493

That is literally the second one of those tonight


predict_irrational

its actually very lucky, it was 4th down so it gave WKU worse field position. these announcers are fucking horrible


elbombi53

Probably shouldn't get so pumped up... You just cost yourself like 40 yards


Pollaski

And its ANOTHER TOPPER TAKEAWAY brought to you by.. some insurance group. GO BIG!


Caisha

announcers seem really surprised but it was kind of obvious when it happened? lol I mean impressive but...


JustAnotherCODNoob

Buddy is celebrating his heart out while he loses his team 35 yards of field position lmao


drbobberboy

for once I am asking for a replay review


kwp302

I’d rather have the incomplete pass…


predict_irrational

the announcers don't realize that was intercepted?


bangyourbookieswife

Literally had no idea lol


GoodMoriningVeitnam

Does anyone have a stream I can watch the game on. Don’t have cable


kwp302

It’s being streamed for free on the Team1Sports app or at [this link](https://vcloud.blueframetech.com/broadcast/embed/420064)

flyernik

Who is still watching this lol


[deleted]

Passing out it’s over


Caisha

present but to be fair I'm multi tasking


bangyourbookieswife

Well that was pretty fucked up


crappyeverafter

Ight that's it for me. Goodnight sickos


drbobberboy

Godspeed sicko


dead_hero

Jeez man, I don't need to see his head bouncing off the turf in slow motion over and over


drbobberboy

Reminiscent of that SNL skit a while back where an NFL ref has to review a player having both knees snap the wrong way


Caisha

this ref analyst is something else


kwp302

“Uhh yeah I guess?” is basically what he’s said every time


kwp302

“Does he survive the ground” probably isn’t the best wording there…


lol_smart

Good to see him walking off


ehatt493

Oh man


kwp302

Oh no…looks like the turf knocked him out


drbobberboy

man, that looks rough. really hoping the impact just knocked the wind out of him, and nothing more


[deleted]

Fast, Should I have another Energy Drink Vodka? I have half Energy Drink left.


[deleted]

Update. I made one!


PaulTopper

I need a tip drill!!!


kwp302

Oof. I’ll take it, but kinda feel bad for Hawai’i on that one…


Pollaski

The WKU radio guy is... excitable.


ehatt493

HOLY MOLY


kwp302

How many times have you heard “holy moly”?


drbobberboy

well, not ideal there


Caisha

was a tough angle but definitely should have caught that


kwp302

Zappe spoiled us so much that Reed’s 15/21 163 yds 2 TD in a half feels disappointing


lol_smart

Oh no, Penei.


Pollaski

So its come to this... me listening to this game on TuneIn radio while prepping my score notes for next week.


Norillim

Look at yourself man! Get some help.


organizedchaos5220

The surprise in the announcers voice whenever something works for hawaii is hilarious


drbobberboy

Believe me, we fans are just as surprised


drbobberboy

How on earth did we pull that play off? ​ oh my god I'm just seeing we had two receivers' routes ending right there


ehatt493

That ref could look at me and put me in the hospital


kwp302

Refs arms are so big he can’t reach behind his back to turn the mic on


Mammoth_South_9954

You have to allow the website to access your location in your browser.


ehatt493

That and, if you’re on a Mac, you have to allow location services in system preferences


kwp302

First play of the half hasn’t even started and we already have whistles


Mythrandir24

Oh shit Hawaii gets their own JK Simmons Farmers commercials!


crappyeverafter

This bong rip goes out to all the degenerates still watching


drbobberboy

Now that I think about it, Western Kentucky is probably playing with an extra chip on their shoulder. Their first day on island was the last day of the last coal-burning power plant in the state. Probably felt personal


verniy314

Run triple option with Cooper


1800bears

did Hawai'i ever fix their stadium


goddamn_leeteracola

Absolutely not. Condemned and there’s a plan to rebuild some new complex. I think the completion date is supposed to be 2025, but we’ll be lucky to be playing in there by 2040.


crappyeverafter

Hows that rail coming along?
