HONOLULU — Despite running back Paul Harris' fifth 100-yard game of the season, the University of Hawai'i football team was unable to overcome a 35-point halftime deficit, falling to San Jose State, 42-23 Saturday night at Hawaiian Airlines Field at Aloha Stadium.

The Rainbow Warriors fought with a renewed sense of vigor in the second half, out-scoring the Spartans 23-7 after intermission. Still, Hawai'i completed its fourth winless conference campaign (0-8) and lost for the ninth straight time to fall to 2-10 overall.
 
Harris did his best to lead the Warriors, finishing game with 179 yards on a career-high 28 carries and one score. Harris' fifth game this season with over 100 yards rushing is the most since Travis Sims who posted nine in 1992. Quarterback Ikaika Woolsey threw for 202 yards on 13-of-25 passing and two touchdowns to receivers Devan Stubblefield and Makoa Camanse-Stevens.
 
Hawai'i was miffed both offensively and defensively against the Spartans, who outgained the Warriors in the first half by 210 yards. Two turnovers did not help UH's cause either, with one being a Woolsey interception in the endzone.
 
SJSU dual threat quarterback Kenny Potter, was exactly that, a major threat both running and passing. Potter accounted for five scores in the first half alone, throwing for three scores and running for two, while passing for 312 yards. Running back Tyler Ervin ran for 114 yards and one score and had a team-leading six catches for 62 yards.
 
The Spartans got the ball to start the game and took off from there. They reached pay dirt three times in the first quarter, with all three drives taking only seven plays. Potter ran for a touchdown and threw two more as SJSU built up a 21-0 advantage. The lead ballooned to 35-0 at the half for SJSU who scored on all five possessions.
 
UH managed to score three touchdowns in the second half, with one coming on a miraculous 77-yard score by Stubblefield off of a tipped ball intended for Isaiah Bernard. Harris got the 'Bows on the scoreboard to start the half as Harris rushed all four times for 75 yards, including a 36-yard scamper.
 
The Warriors added a safety as linebacker Jahlani Tavai sacked Potter in the endzone and Woolsey found Camanse-Stevens for a five-yard score late in the game.
 
Hawai'i will look to finish on a positive note as they close out the season against Louisiana-Monroe, Saturday, Nov. 28. Kick-off is 6:00 p.m. HT. It marks the final home game for 22 seniors, who will participate in the traditional Senior Walk following the game.
