  • Northern Iowa @ Hawaii Thread

    Sat. Sept. 8th, 2014 @ Hawaii, Aloha Stadium (Oahu, HI)

    UNI is 0-1 after losing a heartbreaker to Iowa 31-23.
    Hawaii is 0-2 with a close loss to Washington 17-16 and came back strong (23 points in the 4th) against a good Oregon State offense to lose 38-30.

    Hawaii avgs. 23 pts a game and gives up a shade over 27.

    Their defense has given up 169 yards a game on the ground with 3 TDs (avg. 4 yards per carry). They have given up over 230 yards passing a game with 5 YAC yards per catch. They have one interception to their credit this year and have given up 4 passing TDs.

    Their offense has yet to get a passing TD but avg. 221 yards a game.

    They are 15/42 on 3rd downs and 4/6 on 4th downs.

    Hawaii has been outscored 48-17 in the first half this year but has stiffened up at the half and outscored its opponents 29-7 in the 2nd half.

    Their leading running back Joey Iosefa has 4 rushing Tds including 3 against OSU last week. He also had 31 receiving yards in that game as well. He is expected to be out.
    He averages 98 yards a game. QB Woolsey is their 2nd leading rusher with 1 score.

    Their top receiving threat has only 15 catches for a 152 yards (long of 21). Quinton Pedroza is his name.

    Woolsey's deepest pass was to Marcus Kemp, their #2 WR, and a 41 yarder.


    Their defense has forced 2 fumbles but they have recovered none of them. They have 1 pick and only 3 sacks on the year.

    Overall I think we will match up well with them. Hawaii will try to pound the ball as much as possible. We have a great defensive backfield that I believe can shut down any passing game the Warriors try to attack with and as long as we can penetrate at the line even a little...the running game can and will be shut down. I think this will be a huge day for Sawyer and David to be honest.

    What you guys think? Predictions?

      According to Coach Farley at the media luncheon, UH is averaging 104 offensive plays a game, compared to 60-70 in the UI/UNI game. Not entirely sure how that is computed since the number of passing attempts + the number of rushing attempts only adds up to 80-90ish for each of Hawaii's games, but regardless, it sounds like they run a fast-tempo offense. That, compared to potential travel fatigue and heat/humidity issues that opposing teams may not be used to could give the home team a bit of advantage, or at least be something that UNI needs to address and try to compensate for.

      Also, he said that Joe Feldpausch, senior DB for UNI, is out for the rest of the year after sustaining a knee injury on punt coverage in the Iowa game.

        Punts and FGAs count as offensive plays?

          That's too bad about Joe, everything I heard about him is that is what an extremely hard working young man

                      Hope we don't lose tonight. On second thought if we do that could mean Norm Chow is fired/steps down so that would be a good thing

                          Looks like should work pretty good with a Chromecast as well. Just tested it out with a volleyball game they have going.
                          "I think they're very good," Farley said of the preseason top 25 Hawkeyes. "But so are we."

                            This is a must-win game for UNI. Our loss to Iowa looks worse and worse after Ball State and ISU outplayed them in consecutive weeks. This is the same Ball State team that lost at home to INSU today...

                              not a must-win. yeah, a loss might make UNI drop slightly in the polls, but not much given the fact that both our opponents have been FBS. and the polls don't really matter much, especially at this point in the season.

                              That being said, I'd much rather see UNI get the W than the L. The conference season will be a challenge week in and week out.
