Will attempt return on senior day Schager (knee) aims to suit up for Hawaii's final game of the regular season against New Mexico on Nov. 30, Brian McInnis of Spectrum News Hawaii reports.

Impact Schager went to the locker room against Utah State, and didn't manage to return to the game. The quarterback will have one more chance to play this season, as at 4-7, Hawaii has been eliminated from postseason contention. Schager will reportedly attempt to play against the Lobos.

Heads to locker room Saturday Schager went to the locker room following a hit in Saturday's game against Utah State, Jason Turner of The Herald Journal reports.

Impact It's unclear if Schager suffered a serious injury, but he was affected enough by the hit to be taken to the locker room straight away. This means true freshman Micah Alejado will play under center for the Rainbow Warriors if Schager doesn't return.

NOVEMBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Three touchdowns in loss Schager completed 14 of 35 passes for 282 yards, three touchdowns and one interception during Saturday's 29-27 loss to UNLV. He also had 18 rushes for 42 yards.

Impact While Hawaii ultimately came up short, it was another impressive showing from Schager who's now thrown for 526 yards and six touchdowns over his last two games. The senior's completed 57.8 percent of his passes this season for 2,467 yards, 19 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. Schager and the Rainbow Warriors will face Utah State on the road next week.

Leads Warriors to comeback win Schager was 29-for-53 passing for 244 yards, three touchdowns and an interception during Saturday's 21-20 victory over Fresno State. He also had 17 rushes for 15 yards.

Impact Schager was held in check early as Hawaii mustered just one touchdown through the first three quarters. However, the senior came on late, throwing a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns to Nick Cenacle to power the Rainbow Warriors to an upset victory. Schager's now completed 59.6 percent of his passes for 2,185 yards, 16 touchdowns and nine interceptions this season. He'll face UNLV at home next week.

Rushes for four scores Schager completed 14 of 25 passes for 153 yards and an interception during Sunday's 34-13 victory over Nevada. He also had 19 rushes for 120 yards with four touchdowns.

Impact It certainly wasn't the typical line from Schager. With top wideout Pofele Ashlock hampered by an injury, the Warriors struggled to get much going through the air. However, Schager more than made up for it with his performance on the ground, topping 100 rushing yards for the first time in his collegiate career while punching in four short-yardage touchdowns. The senior quarterback has completed 60.5 percent of his passes for 1,941 yards, 13 touchdowns and eight interceptions this season while adding 211 yards and six scores on the ground.

The senior will look to bounce back next week in a home matchup with Nevada.

Falls to Boise State Schager was 21-for-36 passing for 264 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 28-7 loss to Boise State.

Impact While Schager's production was modest overall Saturday, it was the first time since Hawaii's Week 0 opener that the senior didn't throw an interception. Schager's completed 60.2 percent of his passes for 1,592 yards, 12 touchdowns and six interceptions through six games this season.

Another so-so outing Schager was 21-for-42 passing for 252 yards, one touchdown and an interception during Saturday's 31-13 loss to Sam Houston State. He also had 12 rushes for 22 yards.

Impact Schager has yet to put up the stat lines this season that we've come to expect from quarterbacks in Hawaii's air-raid offense. Saturday was the first time he passed the 250-yard mark in a game this year despite completing just 50 percent of his passes. Overall, Schager has a 53.4 completion percentage through three contests for 682 yards, four touchdowns and three interceptions. He'll look to get rolling next week against Northern Iowa.

Impact The first of four touchdowns was a lob pass to longtime teammate Tamatoa Mokiao-Atimalala. Ever since November, Schager has been running much better with the football during games, backed by a 15-yard draw for his second TD. Dekel Crowdus' three receptions Saturday were his first since 2022, their last a touchdown pass from the senior quarterback. Finally, a QB sneak helped Schager log his fourth touchdown, the first time he has recorded multiple rushing TDs during an FBS game.

Impact An earlier report suggested Schager would enter the transfer portal, but it appears that will not be the case after all. Schager closed out the 2023 campaign with 3,542 passing yards and a 26:14 TD:INT ratio and should be slated for another big passing season in 2024.

Impact It's the sixth time Shager's surpassed 300 yards this season as he led the Rainbow Warriors to a last-second upset win over CSU.

Two interceptions in loss Schager completed 25 of 44 passes for 278 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 42-9 loss to Wyoming.

Impact Schager and Hawaii's offense couldn't get much of anything going Saturday, failing to score in the first half before Schager completed a 19-yard score to Chuuky Hines late in the third quarter for the Rainbow Warrior's lone touchdown of the contest. Schager will look to end his junior campaign on a high note next week vs. Colorado State. He'll head into the game with 3,222 passing yards, 25 touchdowns and 14 interceptions.

Held in check Saturday Schager was 17-for-29 passing for 132 yards and an interception during Sunday's 35-0 loss against San Jose State.

Impact Schager was held under 200 yards for the second time this season as Hawaii was shut out at home for the first time since 1998.

Shaky in loss Schager was 33-for-52 passing for 345 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions in Saturday's 42-21 loss to New Mexico.

Impact While Schager topped 300 yards for a third straight game, he struggled with turnovers in the loss, throwing three interceptions and fumbling twice (losing one). Still, the junior Schager should remain a solid fantasy option in Hawaii's prolific passing offense. He's completed 63.3 percent of his passes for 2,433 yards, 20 touchdowns and 11 interceptions through eight games this season.
