FINAL SCORE: UNLV 29, Hawaii 27

The University of Hawaii football team will try to win its third straight game when it hosts UNLV as a nearly two-touchdown underdog today at Ching Complex.

This game is important for both teams. At 6-2 overall and 2-1 in the Mountain West, the Rebels are in contention for a spot in the league’s championship game. The Rebels had a bye last weekend following a 29-24 loss to Boise State before a school-record crowd of 42,228 at Allegiant Stadium.

The Warriors, who won two in a row to improve to 4-5 and 2-2, counter with a smothering defense (average of 15.6 points in five games at the Ching Complex) and new-look offense. In recent weeks, the Warriors added Air Raid features, mostly to the run game, in combination with the run-and-shoot offense.

Live updates of the game will follow below.
