FRESNO, Calif. – The University of Hawai'i Warrior football team continued its losing skid with a 45-10 loss to Fresno State Saturday at Bulldog Stadium. UH (1-7, 0-5 MW) lost its sixth straight game, five of which have come in Mountain West action. The win was Fresno State's first over UH at home since 2004.
 
The Bulldogs (7-3, 5-1 MW) put the game away early, going up 21-0 in the first quarter en route to a 42-3 halftime lead.  Fresno State racked up 428 yards of offense in the first half alone with Derek Carr leading the offensive explosion. The junior quarterback threw for 304 yards and four touchdowns while sitting out the entire second half.  
 
The Warriors were continually burnt by long-yardage plays as Carr threw five passes of 31 yards or longer, three of which went for touchdowns. Bulldog running back Robbie Rouse also busted out for a 51-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter.
 
The UH offensive, meanwhile, continued its struggles surrendering five sacks and turning the ball over three times. Tyler Hadden tied his career-high with a 49-yard field goal in the second quarter and UH put together a late touchdown drive, however the team did leave points off the board with an interception in the red zone and a missed field goal.
 
Junior quarterback Sean Schroeder finished 16-of-30 for 162 yards. Junior safety John Hardy-Tuliau led the UH defense with seven tackles and an interception.  
 
Quarterbacks Cayman Shutter and Jeremy Higgins both saw action in the fourth quarter, the first time this year the reserves have seen extended action. Shutter completed one pass from 3 yards in two series, while Higgins directed UH's lone touchdown drive of the day. The sophomore completed 4-of-5 pass for 56 yards and capped the drive with a 5-yd scoring rush.
 
The Warriors now return home for their first home game in a month when they host Boise State in a nationally televised game on Saturday, Nov. 10. Kickoff is set for 2:00 p.m. at Hawaiian Airlines Field at Aloha Stadium.
