Hawaii V Army Game On Now

[UNT90]

Was checking to see if I had the channel (152 on Dish) and there it was. A little preview.

About 9 minutes left in the first as of this writing.

I have been watching some of the game on DirecTV 613. Observations: Steelman is hurt; McNary is a fast DE (#44), sort of like AK47 only a step faster; Hawaii has defended with a 3-4 and a 4-3, and sometimes 8 in the box; Army has burned them with the pass when Hawaii gets too greedy but they don't throw many; very smooth execution by Army, lots of deception and they hit the line quickly. They did have a field goal blocked. This is the typical Army team we saw in Denton, disciplined, patient, with very few bonehead mistakes. Army broke down at the very end with a fumble while trying to run the ball to the middle for a winning field goal try; they gave up two sideline passes to stop the clock; and with 10 seconds they gave up a field goal (sound familiar?). They look good and our guys will have to suck it up on defense because they are relentless.

Who won the game?

GMG!

Sorry, Plumm. Got you all hot and bothered, then walked away.

Hawaii beat them 31 - 28 on that field goal with 7 seconds left on the clock.

Score could have been the reverse if Army didn't fumble with about 30 seconds left deep in Hawaii territory.

Army snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, much as we are wont to do.
