Sheraton Hawaii Bowl Preview

Notre Dame vs Hawaii, 8PM

Notre Dame has an NCAA-record nine-game bowl losing streak. Tonight, they are looking to get in the Christmas spirt with a win over Hawaii. The Irish finished 6-6, but lost 4 of their last 5 games. Notre Dame ranks 99th in rushing yards, and 44th in passing yards. The Irish will need Jimmy Clausen to avoid throwing interceptions if they want to win this game.


The Warriors are led by QB Greg Alexander, who has thrown 12 TD's with only 4 INT's. Hawaii has allowed an NCAA-leading 48 sacks. They will need to prevent the Notre Dame pass rushers from breaking through and forcing Alexander to throw dangerous passes. Hawaii has a home game, playing in Aloha Stadium tonight.
