Heading into Saturday’s football game between Hawaii and Nevada, it was easy to ponder about the past considering the circumstance. Nevada, undefeated and on the cusp of national respect, is coming to Oahu to take on a decent Hawaii team. Sound familiar? Many were quick to point out what happened the last time a similar circumstance arose in 2010, when the Colin Kaepernick-led Wolf Pack came to Hawaii with an undefeated record and a mountain of hype following them. Greg McMackin’s Warriors, led by names like Bryant Moniz and Corey Parades, shocked the Wolf Pack that night 27-21, ultimately a loss that prevented that 2010 Nevada team from playing in a major bowl game.
