🇺🇸Happy 5th everyone🇺🇸 And yes, I know Alabama wasn’t great this year, but no matter what season it is, it’s still surprising to see a school like Hawaii take down a team with so much more talent like Alabama.
You should do the Iron Bowl from this season. "The Iron Bowl that didn't Matter". Bama won 4 games that year, Auburn won 6
@@rileyblack7160 Auburn won 8 actually. After beating Bama, they beat Wisconsin in the Music City Bowl
You should do backups that changed teams with the best and the worst backups effects on teams
@@greyfox37 Oh yeah, forgot about that. But that Iron Bowl meant nothing that year
@Bill Finley You know what I meant, you pedantic turd
I'm impressed that alabama traveled outside southeastern part of the country
This is part of why they don't anymore.

They only did it cause if I remember correctly, Alabama was banned from a bowl game for a year or two, so whoever was in charge of the schedule making thought it would be a good idea play Hawaii in Hawaii to end the season as a “bowl” game.
If you look more objectively in the last 10 years Bama has played regular season games with Southern Cal, Wisconsin Penn State Clemson (not playoff or bowl games) West Virginia Florida State Louisville
Also Virginia Tech. None of these games were at home. All neutral site games for season openers.
Lastinline
And how many of those were outside the southeast? For example against USC was a neutral site game at AT&T Stadium.
Alabama was on probation in 2002/03 so they scheduled the last game of the season in Hawaii both years so the players could have something like a bowl game experience.
I was at this game, 9 years old with my dad. Best thing about that day was the dippin' dots I got. :)
For 7 bucks
Think of how little ice cream there was in it
Awesome
This is the game is the reason Bama started recruiting in hawaii.
Mr Smith they been winning w/o Hawaii players so that don’t make sense
Well they are still winning with a Hawaii QB 😆
Ari Alo Ole Miss had a Hawaii QB and kept losing🤪
Fred Trump oh fr? Then where is he now? 🤪
@@soflo5214 wow impressive to QBs from the tiny Island of Hawaii starting for SEC schools nice
I was there, and Alabama fans were great! Alabama at that time, were on a NCAA five years probation, and two years ban on bowl games. That's why Alabama schedule Hawaii to be their last unofficial bowl game of the season. What better place to have it there in Hawaii, showcasing Alabama football bowling in the Aloha State. Awesome game! Let's go TUA! BAMA!
R.I.P. all the announcers trying to pronounce Hawaiian last names.
those were samoan last names mostly.
Lae ze ~fell off the sofa, for the scoop and scoooooore.
Elimimian family been so good to Hawaii football, glad I had the honor to watch them play live
I remember watching that game on TV.
Great win for Hawaii..This was the rematch from the previous year. Bama played in the islands back to back years..then a couple years later Hawaii played in Tuscaloosa..It was a 3 game contract series signed between the schools...
I miss this Alabama 😭
GBO 06 everybody does besides bama fans
We all do
GBO 06 Same. go vols
When Alabama didn’t get shoehorned into the BCS and CFP that is when I didn’t mind them winning but Im staring to lose respect for Alabama However seeing this Alabama football was nice to see as a non Alabama fan but my dad talked about how good they were in the 60s and 70s with bear Bryant.
GBO 06 they still have a football team
3:49 Damn that old ESPN sound in the backgroud
At least they still have that ringer for the espn fantasy football notifications
I didn’t know Bama lost this game. I turned the channel when it was 14-0 and never checked the score again. Pretty awesome to come here and find this.
Pete Pyeatt I was 6
To this day this is my favorite Bama game and I am an Alabama fan. Bama fan's were so psyched going to Hawaii for the game. Hawaii fan's were so awesome, banners saying "Sweet home Hawaii!" Plus, I knew Schula was done for after losing to Hawaii and Auburn that season. 😂
Actually Alabama was the only SEC team that I respected. I know the hype behind the SEC and how tough their conference schedule is, but they are one of the few that is not afraid to travel OUTSIDE of their state to play an out of conference opponent. They always schedule the easy teams they can beat so that they could have higher rankings and more wins. Like a lot of Big 10, Big 12 teams wouldn't travel outside of their homes to go elsewhere,
I was impressed with how many fans that follow their teams and make the trip over here. They were nice fans and weren't obnoxious like many other teams who thinks that they are better than you. Even the games at Alabama were classy fans. I'm glad that Tua was able to play for you guys. Oh well, now UH has to try to rebuild as it will be hard as we cannot recruit the 3,4 or 5 star recruits like most major colleges can.
How is this game not not one of the biggest upsets in NCAA history?
App St upset Michigan at The Big House. Still, tho Hawaii football/JJ on The Rise!
Because back then Alabama was under probation, had limited scholarships and a 2 year bowl ban. This game was scheduled as a substitute bowl game. Not really much of an upset, Alabama was very bad then.
because Hawaii wasn't a bad team and Alabama wasn't in their prime yet
Bama went 4-8
Those were the days. June Jones made it happen for UH.
Isac Sopogaga against that Bama O-line!! Aye this is epic I remember watching this as young Samoan kid all the way in the Midwest up at like 1030pm with my grandpa watching this game..
Hawaii Football program may not have been around as long as some of the great mainland universities well known in College football but Hawaii has had it's fair share of Polynesian/Island Boys come off the Rock and had great careers over time and yet still producing great players!!
yep still producing!!! Mariota , Tua, Elam, and many others.
@@92548dannyt And also in fighting as well, Max Holloway
I remember being at that game too, these were the glory days of Hawaii football haha
Jason Weldon, back up QB & juco tranfer was living the dream that day. I remember this game like yesterday
Awesome upload! I’ve been waiting for someone to post the highlights for this game. I was too young to remember this game, but my dad used to talk about it with me all the time.
Note the ticker... BGSU Football ranked in the Top 25 and defeated Toledo... what a sight.
matthew tant the year after he left...
😆😆 I remember this game I was at a sports bar me and this Alabama fan got into it he threw down $200 I didn't have it but I still took the bet.... Reason why I got into it I said that Hawaii had a chance and that's all I said he was so heated "NO CHANCE IN HELL" I was thinking easy Vince McMahon
I was at my grandmother's house eating leftovers from Thanksgiving 🦃 🎃
This is why I'm a Hawaii fan. Lived there for 10 years and even watched the Rainbows play my alma mater, Arkansas, in the 90s. They were toe to toe with the Hogs until they ran out of gas late in the third quarter.
I was at that game but wasn't it in '87? I believe it was Al " The Samoan Sackman" Noga's final game. Didn't Arkansas' kicker boot a kickoff through the uprights?
@@stevencardenas6094 Yes, '87. Noga was a beast. Arkansas had their hands full. My girlfriend at the time bought our tickets as a gift and even made me a shirt that was half Hawaii colors and half Arkansas red. And the stadium was actually half full, if I remember correctly. Good crowd.
@@PintoSixty Imagining your shirt must looked pretty christmassy... very nice.
@@stevencardenas6094 Mele Kalikimarkansas
The glory days of Hawaiian football, hopefully it will return.
I was there screaming D E F E N S E the whole 4th qtr. Great win!
Took my dad to this game as we were season tix holders. I remember the tide walking in the stadium with the cheering fans. Almost intimidating... lost my voice that day. Soon after it was the Saban era. Wonder how old Tua (my neighbor) was or if he was at the game as a child.
Timmy Chang!! Such a great mentor
Man, how packed these games used to be
Warriors won that game with thier backup QB. Awesome.
Yes, Whieldon was the backup QB......funny though, he had better pro-rated numbers than Timmy that year.
Watching this game in 2022. How sweet it was! Go bows!!!
I remember not making it into the game with all the partying out in the parking lot. Tailgate that day was awsome...
You had the right idea. Was better watching the late night telecast on K5 with Jim Leahey.
9-4 Hawaii Warriors VS 4-8 Alabama Crimson Tide In Honolulu It was all Warriors Today The Hawaii Warriors Won 37 to 29 The Warriors Finished 9-5 (6-2 WAC ) Punch There Ticket For A Bowl Game Face Houston Cougers In the Hawaii Bowl They won the game Over Houston 54 to 48 To Claim The Hawaii Bowl And For Alabama Crimson Tide Finished 4-9 (2-6 SEC) Elimination From Bowl eligible
Hawaii should have gone to 10-4 after beating bama. How'd they finish 9-5?
How were they 9-4 & "punched their ticket to the Hawaii Bowl" as you said, win the Hawaii Bowl & finish 9-5 ??
German Equihua
Bama was bowl banned if remember correctly.
Lmfao Alabama was under probation and was banned from bowls in 02 and 03. Learn wtf you’re talking about before speaking.
Wild. Always nice to see Alabama get beat.
9:10. That's all you need to know
joevonloser00 miss this man.
What about are Utah utes smashing Alabama in the suger bowl when we should of went to the CBS bowl
you know this video is old when Tennessee was ranked #1 at the time (2003) now the Vols are ranked probably number #78 *lol*
These were the June Jones and Timmy Chang Hawaii days if I recall. Hawaii was airing the ball out with CRAZY offense. My cousin was a member of this Bama squad.
Very random question, but to my fans that know a lot about college football in Louisiana or Arkansas, what would you say is the best in state rivalry in each state? Need to know for a future video!
PSC Highlights ulm vs Lafayette
PSC Highlights LSU vs Arkansas 2013?
TheSportsGamer nah I don’t mean a specific game, I just wanna know what you guys think the best rivalry in each state is. So if I was asking about Florida, the answers could be Florida vs Florida State, Florida State vs Miami, UCF vs USF, etc.
PSC Highlights Arkansas and Arkansas state have never played for some reason
PSC Highlights got it
Man miss Vili Da warrior he always use to amp the boiz up
For sure braddah
Damn I remember when Hawaii was actually good. Their games don’t even be televised anymore
It still does lol
Funny the just did last week when they beat Arizona on CBS.
They have at least 3 games every year nationally televised on ESPN or on other major networks.
Last night's game was on ESPN2 and Hawai'i beat Nevada in Reno 54-3.
It'd be nice to see the University of Hawaii get a nice big new stadium. Hawaii football is on a par with the rest of the US.
that was a fun game. i was there.. was only 14 at the time.. even as a bama fan, i get to say i went all the way to hawaii to watch alabama lose XD
A trip to play Hawaii in Hawaii at the end of the season? That’s a vacation
Here's my video suggestion: 2011 #2 Oklahoma State at Iowa State
This game is arguably the game that put an end to the BCS system.
It also had an Oklahoma State University plane crash earlier that day and should not took place. OKLAHOMA STATE would have won the national title that year
@@notyourpuppet5975 You make a good argument and yeah OKST would have at least have been in the title game. Also I understand for obvious reasons why one would suggest that game to not be played.
these were the days hawaii was the only school interested in polynesian players. Nowadays they leave the islands to play at bigger schools :(.
BYU, Utah, USC, and all the PAC 10 were recruiting Polynesians. Now the SEC was a different story. Only Jesse Mahelona and later on Masoli were able to breakthrough there
For those wondering, the reason Alabama played this game is a combination of a few reasons: The WSU Cougars wanted out of the game after switching their Nov. 17 road game at UCLA to Dec. 7 so they could participate in a national ABC-TV tripleheader. WSU coaches didn't want to play University of Washington in Pullman on Nov. 23, then have to travel to and from Hawaii for a nonconference game before playing UCLA in a game that was expected to have bowl consequences. Alabama agreed to travel to Hawaii as a 'regular season' game to encourage players not to transfer and to make up for the fact that they could not go to a bowl game due to being on probation (nevermind they wouldn't have made a bowl game anyway). They encouraged fans to travel because its freaking Hawaii and the fans did just that.
Roll Tide no matter how the season goes!
@Mico Berta the probation was for the 2002 and 2003 seasons. Both games were scheduled because of the bowl ban. Its actually the reason there is a Bowl game in Hawaii now. They realized how well teams would travel because, you know, Hawaii lol.
“WSU coaches didn't want to play University of Washington in Pullman on Nov. 23”
They would also have to get around NFL scheduling to play that day. November 23, 2003 and December 7, 2003 were both Sundays.
Here’s an interesting fact about that game. It wasn’t really about Hawaii winning the game. What was interesting about the game was the fact that Hawaii fans actually booed the quarterback now head coach Timmy Chang any interviews? He wasn’t very happy about that.
I know it won't happen since the schedules are set but would love to see Alabama come here to play Hawaii. QB Tua Tagovailoa playing in front of his family, friends and schoolmates. Guarantee they would sell out Aloha Stadium. Oh well, can dream.
Those were the good ol days.
This game was twenty five years after Alabama was Alabama and five years before Alabama became Alabama.
In that time the PAC 10/ PAC 12 was the top conference
QB Timmy Chang replaced Nick Rolovich, the starter who threw 5 TD passes against BYU, the year before. Rolos now the head coach at UH. Then HC June Jones was considered an ingrate for yanking Rolo, a fault many UH fans haven't forgiven him for.
Another Upset with Alabama. Alabama don't get cocky. Never mind Alabama wasn't that good in the early 2000s
Never forget that UCF beat them in 2000.
My Son insisted I go with him. It was my birthday! Best birthday present ever...
Look at the size difference between Bama players and Hawaii players... Looks like Bama was playing a high school team lol.
Huh you must joking those Hawaiian and especially Somoan players were hell bigger I was at the game
SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤘
Series tied, 1-1.
The game that Auburn almost lost to Mercer
Or Jacksonville St.
I think they did Jack st already
@@Hutchdh I said the game against Mercer. I know he posted the Jacksonville State game already.
@@Hutchdh Well that game is a treat and another reason why Gus having a job is a joke. The best high school coach in college football.
PSC HIGHLIGHTS Next Viedo Do Washington VS Washington State In Seattle (2005)
Those were some fun days to watch UH
Of course this is Auburn's favorite Bama era, LOL
This was before Bama players were paid and drove corvettes not to class but practice
The only time my poor Rainbow Warriors ever shined
Audel LaRoque
Nonsense. They were legit in 2006 with Colt Brennen and Nate Ilowa (sp?) They went 10-3 and beat the crap out of Arizona State in the Hawaii bowl.
Went undefeated the next season and lost big to a really talented Georgia squad. Your receivers were top notch that year. Devon Bess comes to mind.
And the only time they ever will
Jonathan Dravis Davone Bess, Jason Rivers, and Ryan Grice-Mullens all went over 1000 yards that season. CJ Hawthorne put up numbers as well. I was shocked not a single one of them were able to have a productive NFL career.
Davin Bess played for the dolphins for years.
Hawaii went 9-5 this year...
Goon Squad did they win their bowl game or no? I’m curious
@@TLR_MinkxVenom yes
@@zhlis7256 Oh nice Congrats to the Rainbow Warriors.
They 4-1 so far this season not bad
If more SEC teams traveled outside their region, they wouldn't be a "Power" conference.
Shut the fuck up you moron. Bama beats everyone, and beats the shit out of then at that. Wisconsin, Michigan, USC, Texas, Penn State, and yes Clemson too. Fuck outta here with your ignorant bullshit.
False. Tha best conference is without a doubt is tha SEC but tha whole southern region has tha best teams by far so SEC schools don't have to travel far to play tha best. Out of tha las 20 yrs when tha SEC didn't win tha NC it was still a southern team except for maybe 1 yr
Alot of these poly kids only had three years of football experience before college.. Especially the kids from Samoa andTonga...no Pop Warner football.. good win Hawaii.. don't use suspension as an excuse to why bama lost.... lol 🤣
Alabama on the road out of the general area of Alabama. They lost. Wonder why they don't travel?
You mean like travelling to Texas to plat aTm?
Creepy Stares they play in other states all the time dumb ass.
Let me pull out the pages and glue them together to find something that can be the reason why Alabama is good. Oh, maybe this stat can be it!
@@stanleymyrick4068 Alabama is great. Historically great. They should travel the country and prove it. The crowds would be awesome.
Well Hawaii was actually good back then and Bama kind of sucked until about 2008. Anyone else remember Colt Brennan? Good times.
Hawaii use to be so fun to watch.
Cochran was a beast
Meanwhile we (HI) just lost 20-51
54-3 9/28/19
@@TheHaloRed yup. RIP the Wolfpack
You ever gonna do a Nebraska vs Florida’s Big 3 montage?
Go Big Red!
The reason why Alabama will never play Hawaii again
NOT true. Hawaii played @ Alabama in 2006. They lost, but not by much.
@@JohnSmith-hj9fd Yes, and Colt Brennan was the QB. RIP Colt.
@@JohnSmith-hj9fd Yup, I remember that game in Tuscaloosa. Hawaii had the potential game tying drive towards the end, but lost 25-17.
Alabama was 4-9 that year. They were not even ranked. Good win. 👍
And Bama fans miss the Gene Chizik era at auburn. Minus 2010 of course
It looks like an Arena Football field with how close some boards are to the field
That's the same stadium where the Pro Bowl was played for many years.
Well Alabama was bad back in 2003 so it is not as impressive as it would be today
Hawaii would never beat Alabama today. It would be an absolute slaughter.
The point is, that no team is unbeatable...just ask Michigan about App. St and Florida about Ga. Souhern. Doesn't matter if you were good or bad, a school like Hawii shouldn't be able to hang with a school like Alabama
@@jamesgivens9997 sure, look at where they got their QB.
Still, a WAC team with 2 and 3 star recruits beat a SEC team with 4 and 5 star recruits.
Trivia question: Why are there no videos of Auburn being upset?
Answer: Because whenever, Auburn loses, it's never considered an upset. They are underdogs to just about every SEC team they play
I'm sure someone posted a video of unranked Texas A&M beating #3 Auburn on the road on November 8, 2014. There's also unranked Georgia beating #9 Auburn on November 12, 2016. Auburn had about an 80% chance to win that game according to the FPI, and they were favored by about ten points.
I'm just amazed that the Warriors won even with their special teams performing so poorly.
11:25 why would you celebrate down by two possessions with half a minute remaining
Bama kickers stand the test of time
i wanna see an upset like this in the 2019 season
Dead Bird Timmy we don’t need to do it again 😂 it’s in the history books buddy 😂HAWAII BEAT BAMA 💯
Bama thought they was gonna cruise
It’s just crazy to think that around this time, Tom Brady got his first ring and he’s still playing as I comment 20 years later. Fuck. 🤣
I mean they were.....nevermind I see it’s been said multiple times.
This before all the sec sec sec bull -'zzt was started by espn.
Back when Alabama would actually go play true non-conference road games
Will Harris Alabama has several noncon home and home games scheduled for the 2020's and 2030's stop your crying
JesusChristHomeSlice sounds like you’re the one that got his feelings hurt.... For the last 10 years Alabama has played 2 true non conference games in the regular season... It’s good to see them finally manning up and playing teams on their turf instead of teams like UT-Chattanooga..
Will Harris Ohio St plays FAU week 1 omg hard schedule.
JesusChristHomeSlice I was never talking about Ohio State. I was talking about Alabama... Just because other teams schedule small teams doesn’t make it right for Alabama to do it all the time..
Will Harris yeah but when Alabama does it everyone crys and when other teams do it they ignore it just like you just did.
June jones made it happen for hawaii , norm chow turned it into shiit now rolovich fixing it . i believe in rolovich tho
Who would have thought that The Hawaii Warriors would beat Big Bad Alabama.
We werent nothin back then now were all called bandwagon just cause we win
Whildon the only Hawaii qb that beat Alabama
Geez, I've never seen a game where all the kickers were uniformly bad.
Nick Saban was the only dislike
Nick Saban wasn't the coach yet. Mike Shula was after Mike Price got fired.
Dry Erase Sports Ironically, Saban won his first championship this year, at LSU.
Oh god I’d really love to see this in 2019. Too bad it won’t happen.
Do big colleges losing to small colleges
remember when Bama lost 2 Utah in a BSC game
You should do when Kansas beat Texas I think it was 2016.
11/19/2016. I wrote in my journal that day, “Texas’ football team lost to Kansas. Texas were favored by 23. No doubt exists in my mind that Charlie Strong is out at Texas.”
I remember this game! Hawaii whoop Bamas ass.
Nice!
Very shocked that an SEC team like Bama travel across the country to face An small school like Hawaii
This was the 2nd year of their bowl ban and they didn't have a great recruiting class because of this. Also, they took a trip to Hawaii to play them the year prior as their season finale. So I guess they felt that if they aren't going to a bowl game, they might as well play a game in a stadium that host a bowl game.
Alabama lost on and off the field that game.
how did hawaii get this game at home
Bama had a bowl ban so they scheduled the game to make up for not being able to go to a bowl.
Good to see Bama loose.
