Hawaii at Michigan odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Hawaii at Michigan odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (0-2) and Michigan Wolverines (1-0) meet Saturday at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor. Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET (Big Ten Network). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Hawaii vs. Michigan odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

The Rainbow Warriors have not only lost each of their first 2 games at home, but they’ve looked really bad in doing so. Vanderbilt crushed Hawaii 63-10 in the Week 0 opener, and Western Kentucky rolled to a 49-17 win in the islands last weekend.

Michigan made rather quick work of Colorado State by a 51-7 count, covering a 31-point number. The Wolverines amassed 234 yards on the ground and went for 206 yards through the air in the easy victory.

Michigan is No. 5 in the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

Hawaii at Michigan picks and predictions

Prediction

Michigan 66, Hawaii 7

Money line

There was no money line at the time of published, but it wouldn’t be worth pursuing anyway.

Against the spread

MICHIGAN -52.5 (-110) laying this kind of number is crazy, and it’s even more ludicrous to suggest taking a team to win by more than 7 touchdowns. However, that’s how bad Hawaii has been this season.

The Rainbow Warriors lost by 53 and by 32 on their home field against unranked teams, so you know the Wolverines are going to be putting it on them. It wouldn’t be surprising to see 70 in this one, quite frankly, before the Wolverines power it down.

Over/Under

OVER 67.5 (-110) is a rather high number only because of Hawaii’s ineptitude. Can the Rainbow Warriors score at all on this trip to the Big House? Colorado State managed just 7 last week, and it’s a heck of a lot more effective than Hawaii.

Michigan will get its points, and likely quite a bit of them early. The Rainbow Warriors have yielded 112 total points through the first 2 games against Vandy and WKU, so the Wolverines will find the end zone frequently. In fact, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Michigan take care of the Over, or come close to do doing so, all on its own.

Vanderbilt at Hawaii odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Vanderbilt Commodores at Hawaii Rainbow Warriors odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Vanderbilt Commodores kick off the season Saturday against the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors at Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in Honolulu. Kickoff is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET (CBSSN). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Vanderbilt vs. Hawaii odds, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Commodores weren’t very good last season, piling up 10 losses, including the season opener at home to FCS East Tennessee State. But coach Clark Lea knows defense, and the offense has some adequate pieces to at least be competitive in the non-conference portion of the schedule.

The Rainbow Warriors were hit by mass losses and off-field turmoil in the final days of the Todd Graham era. He is now gone, replaced by former popular QB Timmy Chang, and hope springs eternal in the islands once again. But it’s difficult to rise from the ashes back to prominence in short order.

This will be the 1st-ever meeting on the gridiron between these two schools.

Vanderbilt at Hawaii picks and predictions

Prediction

Hawaii 28, Vanderbilt 26

Money line

HAWAII (+250) lost QB Chevan Corderio to conference rival San Jose State via the transfer portal, and it has to replace its top 2 receivers, too. The offense might take some time to jell. However, the Rainbow Warriors represent a strong value on their home field.

Vanderbilt (-320) was favored twice last season, going 1-1 SU. It hasn’t been favored on the road since Oct. 27, 2018, a win at Arkansas, but the Commodores were much better back then.

Against the spread

HAWAII +7.5 (-108) catching 7 and the hook is very attractive. Vanderbilt -7.5 (-112) has failed to cover its last 4 games as a favorite against FBS opponents. And Hawaii is 6-1 ATS in its last 7 games in the month of August, so there’s that.

Over/Under

The OVER 53.5 (-115) is worth playing lightly, although you likely can expect a slow start from both of these teams before the offense picks up the pace in the second half.

We could be in line for a wild finish in the final game of Week 0. But this isn’t the June Jones run-and-shoot offense and the halcyon days of Hawaii football. Colt Brennan isn’t walking through that door. Timmy Chang isn’t walk…well, he is, but as head coach.

Colorado State at Hawaii odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Colorado State Rams at Hawaii Rainbow Warriors odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Colorado State Rams (3-7, 2-4 Mountain West) visit the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (4-7, 1-5) Saturday at Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in Honolulu. Kickoff is scheduled for 11 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Colorado State vs. Hawaii odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Rams lost its fourth straight game last week, falling 35-21 against Air Force at home. Colorado State is also 0-4 ATS during the freefall.

The Rainbow Warriors lost their third straight game on the mainland last week, falling 27-13 at UNLV. Hawaii is now a dismal 0-4-1 ATS across the past five games overall, so something’s gotta give here.

Over/Under (O/U): 53.5 (O: -112 | U: -108)

Colorado State at Hawaii odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Colorado 23, Hawaii 19

Money line

COLORADO STATE (-140) is worth a look in this conference battle in the islands. The Rams have dropped four straight overall, but facing Hawaii (+115) might be the best thing to stop their freefall.

Against the spread

COLORADO STATE -2.5 (-115) should get right at Hawaii +2.5 (-107), and it helps that the Rainbow Warriors won’t have any fans making it difficult for the Rams. Colorado State is 4-1 ATS in the past five meetings in this series, with the favorite also cashing in four of the past five.

Over/Under

The UNDER 53.5 (-108) is the lean here, but know you’ll be bucking a trend. The Over has hit in each of the past five meetings.

However, those Overs happened when both of these teams were much better. The offenses have really struggled lately, with the Rams averaging just 19.0 points per game in the previous three, and the Warriors going for 23 combined points in the past two games.

San Diego State at Hawaii odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s San Diego State Aztecs at Hawaii Rainbow Warriors odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The San Diego State Aztecs (7-1, 3-1 Mountain West) and Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (4-5, 1-3) meet Saturday at the Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in Honolulu. Kickoff is scheduled for 11 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the San Diego State vs. Hawaii odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

Rankings according to the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

The Aztecs suffered a 30-20 loss at home against Fresno State, the first setback of the season for San Diego State. After opening the season 4-1 ATS, the Aztecs are just 1-2 ATS across the past three outings.

The Rainbow Warriors were thumped 51-31 at Utah State in its fifth trip to the mainland this season, and Hawaii is now just 1-2 SU/0-3 ATS across the past three outings overall. The Warriors have allowed 34 or more points in each of the past three games.

Over/Under (O/U): 45.5 (O: -107 | U: -115)

San Diego State at Hawaii odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

San Diego State 31, Hawaii 20

Money line

San Diego State (-300) is looking for the bounce back, and it should be able to get the win in the islands against a mediocre Hawaii (+230) side. But risking three times your return is just a little too expensive.

AVOID.

Against the spread

SAN DIEGO STATE -7.5 (-102) is a good play, even though a seven-and-a-hook bet on the favorite is not my favorite wager. However, the Aztecs have bounced back nicely following losses and non-covers, so they’re the play here. San Diego State is 6-1 ATS in the past seven following a non-cover, and 5-1 ATS in the past six following a straight-up loss.

Hawaii +7.5 (-122), on the other hand, is just 14-31-1 ATS in the previous 46 home games, and 11-23 ATS in the previous 34 against teams with a winning overall mark.

Over/Under

OVER 45.5 (-107) is the play in this one. The Aztecs have had a power outage lately, averaging just 19.7 PPG across the past three outings, but they have posted 29.6 PPG to rank 61st in the nation. Defensively, San Diego State has been strong, so don’t expect end-to-end action. But this one should inch over the finish line late.

New Mexico State at Hawaii odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s New Mexico State Aggies at Hawaii Rainbow Warriors odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The New Mexico State Aggies (1-6, Independent) travel to meet the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (3-4, 1-2 Mountain West) Saturday at the Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in Honolulu. Kickoff is scheduled for 11:59 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the New Mexico State vs. Hawaii odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Aggies have won just once in seven outings this season, but they’re cover kings for bettors. New Mexico State is 5-1 ATS across the past six contests while hitting the Over in four of the previous five.

The Rainbow Warriors lost on the mainland in Nevada, 34-17, snapping a modest two-game win and three-game cover streak. The Under has connected in each of the past four outings for Hawaii.

Over/Under (O/U): 62.5 (O: -107 | U: -115)

New Mexico State at Hawaii odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Hawaii 38, New Mexico State 30

Money line

Hawaii (-850) is a good bet at home in this battle between former WAC combatants. New Mexico State (+550) has a rather powerful offense, but the defense is awful. Still, laying eight and a half times your potential return is risky business.

AVOID.

Against the spread

NEW MEXICO STATE +18.5 (-112) is worth a look, as QB Jonah Johnson and the Aggies offense are powerful enough to be able to compete with many teams. The Aggies haven’t won a lot of games, but they have covered five of the past six.

Over/Under

OVER 62.5 (-107) is the lean in this one. New Mexico State has hit the Over in four of the previous five outings, but it has a lot to do with the defense being so poor.

New Mexico State has allowed 461.6 total yards per game to rank 120th in the nation, and it has coughed up 37.1 points per game to rank 123rd out of 130 FBS teams.

Hawaii at Nevada odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Hawaii at Nevada odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (3-3, 1-1 MWC) travel to meet the Nevada Wolf Pack (4-1, 1-0) Saturday at Mackay Stadium in Reno, Nev. Kickoff is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Hawaii vs. Nevada odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Rainbow Warriors might come in with a .500 record overall, but Hawaii is brimming with confidence after a 27-24 win over Fresno State as 11.5-point underdogs last week in the islands. Hawaii is averaging 34.0 PPG across the past two, while going 3-0 ATS in three straight.

The Wolf Pack worked over a subpar New Mexico State team last week, winning 55-28. Nevada took its foot off the gas in the late stages, turning a convincing 52-7 lead into a backdoor cover for NMSU.

Rankings according to the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

Over/Under (O/U): 60.5 (O: -115 | U: -107)

Hawaii at Nevada odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Nevada 41, Hawaii 24

Money line

Nevada (-650) is going to win this game behind its NFL prospect QB Carson Strong, but laying six-and-a-half times your potential return is not a good long-term betting strategy.

AVOID, and look to the spread instead.

Against the spread

NEVADA -13.5 (-120) is a strong play, especially after this line dipped from a flat 14. I could see the Wolf Pack winning by exactly two touchdowns, so that extra half-point makes a difference.

The Wolf Pack have a great offense capable of housing it through the air on every touch. Nevada ranks 7th in the nation with 357.0 passing yards per game, and it’s 22nd in the country with 36.8 PPG.

Over/Under

OVER 60.5 (-115) is a good play based on the passing games of each of these teams. Nevada has a pass-happy offense, with only an occasional run. Hawaii also has a strong pass attack with QB Chevan Cordeiro, and Over bettors love passing teams. Passes stop the clock and allow for more plays, while running teams keep the clock rolling to help Under bettors. Two passing teams are great for the prospects of Over bettors.

Fresno State at Hawaii odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Fresno State at Hawaii odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 21 Fresno State Bulldogs (4-1, 1-0 Mountain West) and Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (2-3, 0-1) meet Saturday at the Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in Honolulu. Kickoff is scheduled for 11 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Fresno State vs. Hawaii odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Bulldogs failed to cover for the first time last week, edging a poor UNLV team 38-30. The Over hit for the third consecutive week for Fresno State, and it has scored 38 or more points in each of its four victories.

The Rainbow Warriors have covered each of the past two after going 0-3 ATS to start. In its three losses, Hawaii has averaged 16.7 PPG. In its two victories, the Warriors have managed 45.0 PPG.

Over/Under (O/U): 64.5 (O: -110 | U: -110)

Fresno State at Hawaii odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Fresno State 41, Hawaii 27

Money line

Fresno State (-410) will cost you more than four times your potential return, and that’s dangerous even for a talented side like the Bulldogs. Trips to the islands can go sideways for teams.

AVOID, and look to the spread instead.

Against the spread

FRESNO STATE -10.5 (-115) are a good bet to bounce back after a surprisingly close shave against UNLV last week. The Bulldogs have a tremendous offense with QB Jake Haener, WR Jalen Cropper, RB Ronnie Rivers, etc.

Look for Fresno State to roll up plenty of offense in the islands and grab the cover.

Over/Under

OVER 64.5 (-110) is worth a small-unit play as this Fresno State offense has been on fire. The Bulldogs are averaging 42.0 PPG, which ranks 13th in the nation, and they’re third overall with 397.6 passing yards per outing. This team can put up points in rather quick fashion, too.

Hawaii at New Mexico State odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Hawaii at New Mexico State odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (1-3) meet the New Mexico State Aggies (1-3) Saturday at Aggie Memorial Stadium in Las Cruces, N.M. Kickoff is schedule for 8 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Hawaii vs. New Mexico State odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Rainbow Warriors return to the mainland, and they hope the third time is a charm. Hawaii lost 44-10 at UCLA in Week 1 Aug. 28, and 45-27 at Oregon State Sept. 11, failing to cover in each. Hawaii did pick up its first cover last week in a 17-13 loss to San Jose State in the islands.

The Aggies started the season 0-3 SU, but they have been a friend of the bettor. New Mexico State won 43-35 against South Carolina State last week, and they’re 3-0 ATS across the past three outings after a loss and non-cover in Week 1 against UTEP.

Over/Under (O/U): 62.5 (O: -107 | U: -115)

Hawaii at New Mexico State odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Hawaii 34, New Mexico State 23

Money line

The third time should be a charm for Hawaii (-900), as it gets its first win on the mainland after two failed trips. However, don’t risk nine times your potential return.

AVOID, and look to the spread instead.

Against the spread

NEW MEXICO STATE +17.5 (-115) is the play at home. They’re not going to win this game, but in the previous two weeks they have shown an ability to move the ball.

The problems for the Aggies are on defense, where they allow 450.5 yards per game and 274.3 passing yards per contest. That’s why they won’t win as Hawaii QB Chevan Cordeiro should finally be able to get on track. Still, the Aggies have covered three in a row, and they’ll hang around within two scores.

Over/Under

The UNDER 62.5 (-115) is the play here as Hawaii’s offense just hasn’t been the same as years past. They could have some much-needed success against New Mexico State as its defense has struggled.

There is just something missing from these Rainbow Warriors on the offensive side of the football, and their defense was surprisingly effective last week against a solid San Jose State offense. Therefore, the Under is the play.

Hawaii at Oregon State odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Hawaii at Oregon State odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

It’s a late-night affair Saturday in Corvallis, Ore., as the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (1-1) and Oregon State Beavers (0-1) face off at 11 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Hawaii at Oregon State odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

Hawaii’s opening week loss to UCLA in Week Zero doesn’t look as bad given the Bruins’ win over LSU last Saturday. The Rainbow Warriors came out sharp in their second game and scored 28 first-quarter points against Portland State en route to a 49-35 win. QB Chevan Cordeiro threw for 305 yards with 3 TD.

Oregon State dropped its opener 30-21 at Purdue. The Beavers didn’t run the ball well as their top two RBs combined for just 51 yards on 15 carries, but the offense looked better once QB Chance Nolan (10-for-16, 157) replaced starter Sam Noyer in the third quarter. They gave up 401 total yards, including over 313 through the air, which could be a problem against a Hawaii team that likes to throw.

Over/Under (O/U): 64.5 (O: -105 | U: -115)

Hawaii at Oregon State odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Oregon State 34, Hawaii 27

Money line

A small-unit value-based play on HAWAII (+340) to pull off the upset makes sense given the extra game under its belt and Oregon State’s mediocre debut.

Against the spread

Neither of these two teams has fared well against the spread recently; Hawaii has dropped its last four while Oregon State has lost its last three. With some uncertainty around the Beavers’ passing game, look for HAWAII +12.5 (-108) to score enough points to keep this close.

Over/Under

Hawaii has hit the Under in three of its last four games and given the Beavers’ slow start in the running game, go with the UNDER 64.5 (-115) in this one.

Portland State at Hawaii odds, expert picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Portland State at Hawaii odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Portland State Vikings and Hawaii Rainbow Warriors meet Saturday at Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in Honolulu. Kickoff is scheduled for 11:59 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Portland State vs. Hawaii odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

Portland State played just one game in the spring and was drummed 48-7 at Montana. At least the Vikings will be used to the quiet of a smattering of fans, as they have played in front of just 4,569 total fans since the end of the 2019 season. The Ching Athletics Complex has a capacity of only 9,000.

Hawaii (0-1) plays games at its practice facility due to issues with Aloha Stadium, and the Warriors are expected to be displaced through at least the 2022 season. The fans haven’t been what has marooned teams visiting the islands, it’s the travel. That isn’t changing, so expect Hawaii to still enjoy a home-field advantage of sorts.

The Rainbow Warriors were hammered 44-10 on the road against UCLA in its opener on the mainland. Look for QB Chevan Cordeiro and the home side to be much different here.

Portland State at Hawaii odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Hawaii 45, Portland State 17

Money line

The way Hawaii (-2500) looked last week, you can’t risk 25 times your potential return. You can’t really do that, anyway. Over the long haul, it’s a losing betting strategy.

AVOID.

Against the spread

HAWAII -25.5 (-108) is back in the islands, and it gets an FCS opponent in Portland State to take out frustrations from Week 0.

The Rainbow Warriors had tremendous difficulty against UCLA last week but expect plenty of wide-open spaces and big plays in their home opener. Cordeiro and the Rainbow Warriors will get the passing offense rolling.

Over/Under

OVER 56.5 (-115) is a great play and the Rainbow Warriors have the potential to take care of a huge chunk of the Over on their own. They’ll roll up huge offensive totals against the undermanned Vikings, sending them back to the mainland with an L in a higher-scoring game.
