Big Kahuna
Notes (that have nothing to with the game):
- I think that when the regular season ends, and Boise State has run the table, people are going to look back and see that Hawaii was the only team that competed with Boise (stop bringing up Wyoming, they played in a blizzard, Wyoming was lucky to backdoor cover).
In the first 5 minutes of the Boise game, Hawaii dropped a 40 yard open pass, and fumbled a 50+yard pass play, putting Hawaii down 15-0 in a heartbeat. For the next 55 minutes, Hawaii outscored, out gained, and out first downed Boise to a tune of 500 yards offense and 5 TD’s.
Hawaii’s punter/place holder (same guy who fumbled a perfect snap giving up a Safety and FG to Alabama) single handedly stopped Hawaii from tying the game with the following: muff snap on 25 yard fg try, muff snap on extra point, another muff snap on extra point - - pretend to be Brett Favre, fumble and give up 2 point run back…..total of 7 points……geezus…..he has since been demoted, please god revoke his scholarship……
Boise QB Zabransky in post game conference, “Hawaii is vastly improved over past years, before they would have folded….they are probably going to win the rest of their games…..”
- An interesting note, 31 of 32 NFL teams sent scouts to the Boise vs. Hawaii game. Amazingly, they came to see 8 Hawaii players and just 4 Boise Players (I guess NFL potential has nothing to do with win). The Hawaii players: DE Alama-Francis, DE Purcell, SS Peters, RB Ilaoa, RB Mauia, C Satele, QB Brennan, and another offensive lineman. Seen a lot of posters debate the NFL caliber of our receivers, sorry guys, they are great college players but too small and slow for the NFL….Word is, QB Colt Brennan’s stock went through the roof with his 5 TD performance……and our second string RB, 300 pound Mauia stock rocketed with his potential as fullback in the NFL. You can just hear the worry on Hawaii Talk Shows that QB Brennan could leave early for the NFL…..
My Pick and Reasons Why:
- I have seen Nevada play countless times and seen their QB Rowe play since he was a Freshmen….
- Hawaii is on an Against the Spread tear I noted could happen in week 1……
- Nevada is 1-2 on the road, and this is Nevada’s back to back road game….
- These two alternate wins at the home field (this year in theory, should be Hawaii’s win)…..
- Watching Nevada against Northwestern and Fresno St, I came away unimpressed…..their defense is marginal at best, and their offense may be only slightly better than last year…Even against UNLV, the game was a lot closer than it looks, whereas Hawaii annihilated UNLV (42-0 in third, subs rest of the way)……Nevada had two big plays for 150 yards total, the other 50 plays, 3 yards average……and 14 points came off a very short field…..
- Hawaii is coming off a vacation / tune up game against Eastern Illinois, where Hawaii rested their injured players, included star receiver Grice-Mullins, Hawaii is healthy for this game……
- Nevada’s secondary is poor from what I have seen, and they were exposed against ASU. 350 and 5 TD’s given up to ASU? I will bet Colt Brennan breaks both those marks here…….
- I love Nevada’s Pistol Offense (this is more run oriented than pass, contrary to popular belief) and Hawaii’s run defense the last two games has me suspect…..but the more I looked at it: is giving up 200 yards to Boise at Boise that bad? And what about adjusting and holding Boise down after the first 50 came in the first 5 minutes? Is giving up 230 to Eastern Illinois that bad considering all they do is run anyway? And 75 yards came on one 3rd and 1 busted defense? And our leading tackler MLB Elmimiam was out?
No, Hawaii’s run defense wasn’t that bad the more I looked at the stats….I will stand by my earlier post……this is Hawaii’s best Front 7 on defense I have seen in ages…..they will slow Nevada down big…..
I would have a bigger play on this but I don’t like the big line move, I rarely if ever bet with the line movement (everyone is piling on Hawaii)…….also, I love Jeff Rowe, he is savvy senior QB and may just pull out enough plays to cover…..but when it comes down to it, Hawaii’s Offense is rolling, and the defense is getting better fast……Hawaii’s players are pumped up big time for this game……
Play this one light guys…..since I know you degenerates cannot resist betting on a late Saturday night……
But…….Revenge is a Bitch…….
Hawaii - 9 ½ 440 to win 400
