Hawaii Warriors Weekly Countdown: Wyoming

Honolulu, Hawaii - October 11, 2025 - The Hawaii Rainbow Warriors have faced a challenging start to the 2026 season. With their first bye week behind them, the team is set to take on the Wyoming Cowboys in a crucial game on September 26th at 9 a.m. HT on The CW. The Warriors are currently a 3.5-point road favorite against the Wyoming Cowboys according to FanDuel.

One key storyline to watch is Hawaii's performance at high elevation. Wyoming, located at 7,220 feet, presents a formidable challenge for the Warriors' offense, which has struggled to find consistency throughout the season. Additionally, the Warriors lost to Stanford and were humiliated by UNLV teams in recent games. The question remains whether the bye week will provide the necessary reset for the team's offensive struggles.

Another important aspect to consider is the matchup between Hawaii quarterback Micah Alejado and Wyoming's defense. Wyoming, which has struggled to score, will be relying on a solid defense to contain the Warriors' offense. Alejado, who has been sacked and pressured frequently, will need to navigate the Wyoming defense effectively.

Meanwhile, Hawaii defensive back Jaylon Edmond and the rest of the backfield will face off against Wyoming quarterback Tyler Hughes, who has already thrown five interceptions in just three games.

Finally, one bold prediction is that Wyoming's offensive line, which has been battered throughout the season, will be a key factor in the game. With the Warriors seemingly unable to score, the defensive line will have the opportunity to sack the quarterback multiple times, potentially turning the tide of the game in favor of the Hawaii team.
