Jacobi Owens rushed for 137 yards and two of his team's eight rushing touchdowns on a career-high 30 carries as Air Force throttled host Hawaii Saturday night, 58-7.

A crowd of 15,118 at Hawaiian Airlines Field at Aloha Stadium saw the Rainbow Warriors drop their sixth consecutive game to fall to 2-7 overall and 0-5 in the Mountain West Conference.

The Falcons accumulated 576 yards of total offense, including a season-high 496 rushing to improve to 5-3 and 4-1.

Timothy McVey ran for 113 yards and two touchdowns for Air Force, which was 8 for 8 on red zone scoring chances and 9 of 17 on third-down conversions.

Max Wittek threw for 123 yards on 10-of-26 passing, but was intercepted twice in the loss.

Keelan Ewaliko, a Baldwin alumnus, accounted for Hawaii's lone score with a 98-yard kickoff return late in the game.

Jerrol Garcia-Williams led all players with 17 tackles, including 10 solo stops, and Daniel Lewis added 11 tackles for the Rainbow Warriors, who play next at UNLV Saturday. 

Air Force now leads the all-time series against Hawaii, 13-6-1. It was the largest margin of victory for either team in the series since the first meeting in 1966, which the Falcons won 54-0.
