LOGAN, Utah – The University of Hawai'i football team began a two-game road trip with a 47-10 loss to Utah State Saturday afternoon at Romney Stadium.
 
Utah State (5-4, 4-1 MW) scored on its first three drives of the game and five of its six drives in the first half and never looked back. The Rainbow Warriors (0-8, 0-6 MW) remain winless on the season and have now dropped 11 straight road games dating back to 2011.
 
Freshman Darell Garretson amassed 370 yards passing and three touchdowns to lead the Aggies. Joey DeMartino added 104 yards and one touchdown on the ground, while Travis Reynolds grabbed eight catches for 152 yards and a touchdown.
 
Little went right for the Rainbow Warriors who arrived in Logan less than 12 hours before kickoff due to travel issues. Utah State built a 23-3 halftime lead and posted 533 yards for the game, including four drives of 70 yards or longer. The UH offense scored on its opening drive of the game, but scored just once more all game, while turning the ball over three times, including an interception for a touchdown.
 
After trailing by 20 at the break, UH looked to make another one of its trademark second-half comeback, taking the opening series the length of the field, capped by a 33-yard touchdown pass from Sean Schroeder to Keith Kirkwood. That score cut the deficit to 23-10, but the Aggies squelched any comeback hopes with 24 unanswered points—17 of those in the third quarter, including a 99-yard interception return by Kyler Frackell that made the score 40-10.  
 
The Rainbow Warriors will now remain on the mainland before heading to Annapolis, Md., for a clash with Navy on Saturday, Nov. 9 on 3:30 p.m. ET (10:30 a.m. HT).
