Episode Details

The UH football team is heating up for 2026 with championship buzz after a dominant 2025 season—9-4, Hawaiʻi Bowl champs, and Mountain West title contenders. Head coach Timmy Chang’s fourth year has been transformative, highlighted by Micah Alejado’s record-setting freshman campaign (3,200+ yards, 25 TDs) and Preseason Player of the Year honors. Defense was stout last year (30 sacks, 67 TFLs), but they’re losing nine starters—and key offensive/special teams players including their top receiver and All-American kicker. Still, veterans like injured MVP Pofele Ashlock and transfers from Power Five schools are poised to fill the void. Kickoff is August 29th against Stanford, with weekly coverage starting August 30th on Hawaii Football Final.
