The latest episode of Hawaii Football Final, a Hawaii Sports 2Night production, premiered Sunday evening on the KHON+ app, where host Rob DeMello and guest analyst John Veneri broke down the University of Hawaiʻi football team’s 38-10 loss to UNLV on Friday night at Allegiant Stadium.

The Hawaii Rainbow Warriors and UNLV Rebels meet Friday at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Kickoff is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET.

UNLV quarterback Anthony Colandrea is a star. Completing 67% of his passes, he’s thrown for 2,527 yards and 18 touchdowns. He’s rushed for 513 yards (it’s probably more, college football is dumb and counts sack yardage in rushing total) and 7 rushing touchdowns. He might be the best player in the conference.

The UNLV football team gave up a 70-yard touchdown pass on just its third defensive snap Friday night against Hawaii at Allegiant Stadium.
