I watched most of the Hawaii-Fresno State game last night, mainly to see Hawaii's remarkable quarterback, Colt Brennan. It was college football the way it oughta be. Aloha Stadium overlooks Pearl Harbor. The coach, June Jones, wore a tropical shirt. Lovely surfer girl/boy cheerleaders. The University of Hawaii "mascot" is a hefty student done up as a fierce Hawaiian warrior; completely possessed by the role, he was a crowd pleaser. Might as well try frightening enemies away rather than immediately clubbing them to death. With most college football, it's expected that the regular home season weather ranges from sun stroke to hypothermia. In Hawaii, it's about 75 degrees.
