This will be the Christmas Eve bowl game. What do ya'll think?

Neither team can spell the word defense. BYU is making the Hawaii QB look like Tom Brady.

This game has to be fixed. The bad officiating and review has cost BYU 10 points

Now the refs missed a fumble. God this is laughable

Agree about the officiating, pretty bad. The game being on Hawaii's home field, it did seem as if every critical call on a turnover went in favor of Hawaii. BYU had some of the worse DB's that I've seen in a long time. BYU only rushed 3 men 95% of the time, and yet Hawaii's receivers would still get 5 yards behind the DB's every time. Instant replay in at least 4 or 5 of those plays was a total joke.
