Manoa Magic: Hawaii stuns Air Force 27-13
Photo by Darryl Oumi/Getty ImagesWhen the betting market opened last week, Air Force was a 16-point favorite against Hawaii. A curious number, some onlookers figured it would be much higher than that. The spread ballooned to as high as 19.5-points by the end of the week. Arriving on Oahu for Veterans Day weekend, surely the result of this football game would be a formality for Air Force, even after a shocking loss to Army, right?
In a complete stunner, Timmy Chang’s Warriors put together a defensive performance that will be remembered for years to come in a 27-13 victory over previously 8-1 Air Force.
