HONOLULU (AP) — Bryant Moniz threw for three touchdowns, ran for another score and streaking Hawaii won its sixth straight and became bowl eligible by defeating Idaho 45-10 on Saturday night.
Following the game, the Warriors (7-2, 5-0 Western Athletic Conference) accepted an invitation to its hometown Hawaii Bowl and set their sights on next week’s showdown at No. 2 Boise State that could determine the WAC champion.
Moniz became the fifth passer in school history to break 3,000 yards in a season. He was 27 of 38 for 326 yards with one interception. He also rushed seven times for 43 yards, including a 3-yard TD run in the fourth quarter before being replaced by backups.
Greg Salas caught 11 passes for 168 yards for the Warriors, who have outscored opponents 273-93 in the winning streak. Eight of Salas’ receptions came in the second half.
