The football schedule out!

About the 36-day gap between homes games (9/4 Central Arkansas, 10/10 Fresno State), Rocky Savaiigaea said:
"That's crazy. I've never seen anything like that. But it's football. You have to play no matter what." (HA)

About their schedule, Mac said:
"You gotta play what you gotta play. It'll all work out." (HA)

"I think it's a competitive schedule and a challenging schedule. I think its a good home schedule for our fans. We have to come out with great desire and a sense of urgency in our first three ballgames." (HSB)

About how they will stay in Vegas between the Washington State and UNLV games but will return to Honolulu before the Louisiana Tech game, Mac said:
"We'll come home and do our laundry and we'll get back on the road." (HA)

HA Note: "McMackin acknowledged that it will be a hardship for fans not to see a home game for more than seven weeks. But he said the second half of the season will be favorable for UH supporters. The Warriors will play home games against four schools that played in bowls in 2008 — Fresno State, Boise State, Navy and Wisconsin."

About playing home games against 4 teams that played in bowls in 2008, Mac said:
"They are good teams, championship teams. It's important that we win at home. That's why we need to fill the stadium for these home games." (HA)
