Teams: California vs. Hawaii

Where: Honolulu, Hawai'i

One thing about Cal Football, is they know how to blow leads to lose games !

The back story was about the two head coaches, both former QBs at Hawaii under June Jones with interim Cal HC Rolovich also coaching Hawaii as well. Remember he was fired as the HC at Washington State because he refused the covid vaccine.

The starting Qbs for both teams were born in Hawaii. Though Micah Alejado played high school football in Vegas. Such an unassuming QB too. He's like 5'9, 170 lbs. But he can fling it.
