San Jose State has played Hawaii every year since 1996 (except for 2012) and those games were mostly high scoring affairs, but 2021 was not one of those games.
From Saturday night going into early Sunday morning for us mainlanders, it was obviously not the best offensive showing to stay up late for, especially after just witnessing a great Fresno State win over UCLA.
This Spartans and the Rainbow Warriors game could be called a scratch-and-claw, grind-it-out kinda game or perhaps even a battle of ineptness. It was a game that saw 22 punts overall (11 by each team), 17 offensive drives by each team where usually a typical average is dozen for each team, and so many dropped passes on both sides.
