The University of Hawaii football team plays its first game ever today against the host Washington State Cougars at Martin Stadium.

Kick-off is at 9:30 a.m

The game focuses on two teams on opposite paths. In their first season in the two-team Pac-12, the Cougars are 5-1, a win because they are bowl eligible. They have rebounded from the loss of quarterback Cam Ward and his Heisman Trophy candidacy to Miami.

The Warriors are 0-2 in away games this year and 1-13 overall under third-year coach Timmy Chang. Although the Warriors lead the Mountain West in scoring defense (20.5 points per game) and total defense (332.8 yards per game), they have committed too many penalties (52 of 54 accepted), given up too many sacks (3rd). .5 per game) and didn't make enough timely moves. At 2-4, the Warriors have only defeated FCS members Delaware State and Northern Iowa.
