Ghanwoloku on bowl loss: "It wasn’t on the coaches. The coaches gave us everything we needed. The game plan was good. But it was on the players, just us. Just not being all the way focused.”

I'm curious how BYU coaches have done traditionally in Honolulu.

I sure hope you're not in the meaningless bowlgame crowd too.

so, can we now use the "they didn't want to be there" excuse?

Depends. Appears they want to be there...but for vacation, not to play football

Seriously, if true, how could this not be on the coaches?

I couldn't care less about the Hawaii bowl... I'm glad our coaches don't take the Hawaii bowl seriously (if true). Let

You should've beat HI with your eyes closed. Last series on O was malpractice

Sorry, that's just silly thinking. If the coaches and players are just in it

I don’t think anyone says 0 prep. How many people really travelled to

I always thought winning was the funnest thing.

This narrative is getting old. The players earned a trip to Hawaii. Some of you

Bowl games are vacation trips for most teams. There, now your been told.

Sorry but this is not true

I should have stated it differently. Bowl trips are thought of as vacation for

If that's the case, let's only play bowl games in Boise or Frisco so they can actually focus on winning

It’s college football not Jr High choir

We weren't prepping for Bama. We were playing a glorified high school team.

In that case, why can’t they then practice in Utah till just a couple days

Because the bowl pays them to be there for their sponsor activities. They have

Welcome to BYU under Kalani. Lack of discipline and accountability

This is why I can't pull the trigger this year on season tickets

I am so done with Kalani.

No. You do it your way, I'll do my way...

Wait, you think Kalani is awesome?

Wow, you don't say.
