I wouldint count New Mexico State out

They have 10 starters back on offense that average 31.2 PPG last year and 475 YPG

that game should be high scoring to say the least

At NMSU, then maybe. At Aloha Stadium, no chance. The only home game that should be close is Washington...

Take the over on any Hawaii game this year but especially on the New Mexico State game

I took them over every game last year and I think they covered all but twice. They had some unbelievably high totals and still kept covering. I can't even imagine what the total for the NMSU game will be. It may be in the 80's. That should be one of the best games of the whole season to watch. The only bad part is the midnight kickoff.

FWIW, CFN has them going 12-0.

I agree about NMSU, but Boise State should be a good game at Aloha. [strike] They [/strike] Hawaii should coast to 9-0, with their ranking climbing to around #15.

Then if they win the last 3, I think they'll get a BCS bid under the new rules for teams outside the 6 power conferences (top-12, or top-16 and higher than one of the 6 BCS Conference champs).

FWIW I think Boise lost too much to do what you say.

CFN's Fiu weighs in on Hawaii.

cfn

I have to call you out on one prediction...Hawaii to the BCS? No way. With their weak schedule, that obviously means they have to go unbeaten. Remember, this is HAWAII. I know I don't have to go down the laundry list of mediocre/flat out bad teams that Hawaii has lost to on the road over the years. Now combine their traditional road woes/jetlag/etc. with the limelight and the pressure of being unbeaten that can easily get to a mid major. Remember when TCU was unbeaten in 2003 and got featured in Sports Illustrated and talked about by everyone...and then they promptly got their face stomped at Southern Mississippi on a Thursday night? ? Andy.

A: This is a team that battled hard in road games against Alabama and Boise State last year, and almost beat Oregon State. Now the offense should be just as explosive and the schedule is easier. Hawaii would lose at least four games in one of the BCS leagues, but this is a killer, killer team at home with one of the best home-field advantages in college football. Once opponents make the long flight and see the beaches and bikinis, all thoughts of football tend to drift away. Where?s that crash and burn road loss going to come? Louisiana Tech? UNLV? San Jose State? Idaho? No, no, possibly, and no. The trip to Nevada might be the end to the BCS debate, but the Warriors will still be favored. The home games? Charleston Southern, Utah State, New Mexico State, and Fresno State before getting Boise State and Washington. If the Boise State or Washington games were on the other side of the water, Hawaii would likely lose. But they?re not.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I've edited my post to change 'They' to 'Hawaii'. I was saying Hawaii would be 9-0, with a chance at the BCS, but that Boise would give them a good game.

10.5 is still there. Money is literally being waved around for anyone willing to take it. Hawaii is covering this like an OSU RB putting up 100 yards on Indiana. Home runs from the sportsbook like this are a gift that doesn't come around everyday.

For the non-betting saavy (me), what does 10.5 exactly mean? Thanks.

EDIT: to clarify, what does the bet entail :P. I'm assuming that 10.5 means that your bet will pay out 10.5 times. But what does the rest of the bet mean?

Northern Colorado is first on Colt's hit list. Unfortunately there's no line on this one but the Warriors can pick up one of the 11 wins they need. Northern Colorado recently moved up from DII and is famous for having one punter stab another.
