5. Colt Brennan, QB, Hawaii
Brennan was a relative unknown heading into last season unless you were familiar with the WAC. After setting the NCAA single-season record for touchdown passes, 58, it is tough to imagine him flying under the radar again. The pass-happy offensive scheme run by the Rainbow Warriors will allow him to put up eye-popping numbers in 2007. He has four nationally televised games and if he can prove his worthiness, there will be little doubt he will get an invite to New York.

Brennan won’t be pouring it on
By Ferd Lewis
Advertiser Columnist
A team to launch up the Top 25 polls. A Heisman Trophy candidate at quarterback. Twelve regular season games in which to do it.
You might forgive University of Hawai’i football coach June Jones for wanting to stick with Colt Brennan a little longer in games this season to make a point. Or, several dozen of them.
So it was somewhat surprising, not to mention refreshing, to hear Jones say he actually intends to get backup quarterback Tyler Graunke more work — and Brennan an earlier hook — in games in which the Warriors open up big leads.
