Rankings from AP Poll
The 2016 Hawaii Rainbow Warriors football team represented the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa in the 2016 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The team was led by first year head coach Nick Rolovich, who replaced Norm Chow.[1] They played their home games at Aloha Stadium. They were members of the Mountain West Conference in the West Division.
With their 52–16 loss to Boise State on November 12, the team clinched their sixth straight losing regular season, a new school record. However, with a 14–13 victory over Fresno State the following week, they won their fourth conference game, their most since joining the Mountain West. It also snapped a string of five straight losing conference seasons. In addition, with the win against UMass, Hawaii became bowl eligible for the first time since 2010, because of the lack of eligible teams.
