With 27 days between home appearances, University of Hawaii football coach Greg McMackin said the Warriors are looking forward to finally getting back to Aloha Stadium Saturday night against New Mexico State.
"It is the first time we’ve been home in a long time," McMackin said on the Western Athletic Conference coaches’ teleconference today.
Since its Sept. 24th game with UC Davis at Aloha Stadium, the Warriors have played at Louisiana Tech (Oct. 1), had an open date and traveled to San Jose State (Oct. 15). "We’ve had a lot of away games," McMackin said. "It will be good to get home. It is our homecoming (game), so we’re looking forward to it.
Of Aggies (3-3), who UH beat 59-24 last year, McMackin said, "everybody is dangerous for us."
