Oahu Bowl  < 1998  2000 >

The 1999 Jeep Oahu Bowl was a college football bowl game, played as part of the bowl game schedule of the 1999 NCAA Division I-A football season. The second edition of the Oahu Bowl, it was the latter part of a Christmas Day doubleheader at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, preceded by the Aloha Bowl. Televised by ESPN, the game on December 25 matched the Hawaiʻi Warriors, co-champions of the Western Athletic Conference (WAC), and the favored Oregon State Beavers of the Pacific-10 Conference (Pac-10), who were making their first bowl game appearance in 35 years.

Tied at ten at halftime, Hawaiʻi scored thirteen straight points to win 23–17 and finished the season at 9–4; the Beavers fell to 7–5. The victory capped one of the most memorable seasons in school history as Hawaiʻi had seen an improvement of nine wins over the previous winless season in 1998.
