Hawai'i squeezes by Nevada in final seconds

By Associated Press

RENO - Dan Kelly kicked a 45-yard field goal with 11.7 seconds left to keep No. 13 Hawaii undefeated with a 28-26 victory over Nevada on Friday night.

Tyler Graunke, playing in place of star quarterback Colt Brennan, passed for 358 yards and two touchdowns and ran for a third for the Warriors (10-0, 7-0 in the Western Athletic Conference).

Kelly actually made the field goal twice, but Nevada coach Chris Ault had called a time out just before the first one wobbled over the crossbar. His second one sailed down the middle far above the goal posts to extend the NCAA's longest winning streak to 11.

Luke Lippincott ran for 140 yards and a touchdown for the Wolf Pack (5-5, 3-3), who had taken the lead 26-25 on his 5-yard TD run with 8:27 left in the game.
