I do not ever remember an 0-11 being favored.....and drawing action.  Line opened at Hawaii -4 and has been bet up to -6.5.

This is the first time that Hawaii has been favored this season.  The defense is ranked at #102 vs the run...and that is all Army does.

Say what you want about Army, but they have been pretty good to me this season...backed them vs LaTech, backed them over Eastern Michigan, and bet against them @ AFA.

Can't believe that a team that can run the ball vs a garbage run D is nearly a TD underdog.

And If I can't believe it, that usually means it is a trap.  Someone knows something on here, and if I was looking to call shenanigans on a line this week then this would be it.

A big no-play Shenanigans call here.

Earlier this year Army started out +2.5 vs an 0-6 Temple team.  By kickoff it was bet all way Army -1, and the closest army was to winning that game was at 0-0.

I try hard not to bet on games like this where both teams are just bad.  Yet still, I somehow manage to find a way.

For now I have to pass on this game, but ask me again Saturday night when all the other games are about over, and this will be the only one on!!!  

Honestly, it would be hard to back Hawaii in this spot laying that many points.  The only thing they really have going for them is that Army has to make a long road trip.  And that is already figured into the line.

On paper Army doesn't have a bad pass D.  Their run D is not great, but Hawaii doesn't run it well.

Ok guys fyi. I am from Hawaii. 30 year ticket holder.. TRADITIONALLY the last game is very emotional. We suck this year. We cant win a game and have been giving away games all year long. With that said, this is the last game of the year. No bowl game. No win unless they win this one. They have been close to winning the last 4 games with the exception of an Utah st blowout which they did not show up for. a last second fg to unlv., gave 2 free td's to csu and almost came back. san diego st loss in ot. And an epic 60 point battle to fall short in Wyoming. When you look at the stats, you will be mislead. UH has a running game only because joey Iosefa has returned from an injury. He is a very big and strong back that falls forward. Navy was able to beat Hawaii with the option pass, but they too could not stop iosefa. My prediction may be a bold one, and definitely not a homer... but Hawaii should win the game. I have Been saying it all year that this will be their only win.  38-27. If you like Army, beware! this is not a gimmie game

Hawaii has a potent offense now with Iosefa running and Gant receiving.  Gant caught 4 TD passes and a 2 pt. conversion on Sat. Navy manhandled SJS with QB scoring 7 TDs, he did not have that big a game versus us at Annapolis.  No one wants an 0-12 season, seniors will play hard, team has not quit.  We will be screaming.  I think we can beat Army and there will lots of military here to back them, Marines from KMCS , Navy from Pearl, soldiers from Schofield, AF from Hickam.  It will be rocking.  Fights wil break out between the military.  Alcohol is too abundant at the tailgates and stadium concessions.  Security better be ready!

I like the over in this one, Hawaii won't stop army and the triple option, but with losefa back for Hawaii and army not being able to slow many teams down I see a game in the mid 40's for each team

Army is going to go out to Hawaii on their last game of the season with one purpose.  To get in a fight with the Navy.

UH scored 56 points last week on the road now back home vs a team making a long road trip from West Point over 5 time zones most likely why Hawaii is the favorite.  I can't call it personally this is a no play for me

completely agree on the no play.  being from hawaii as well i know that hawaii is a very unpredictable team.  they want the win and hawaii usually plays tough at home.  i honestly think hawaii will take this one.  but by how much is the question.  last 2 games going into ot.  this game might be a tight one.  i dont know about hawaii winning by over a td.  jus imo.

I usually have no problem betting against Army, and some of you guys from Hawaii have nearly convinced me to saddle up and go on the 0-11 Rainbow Warriors.

Stay tuned, I may throw down on the oddsmakers side if the money comes in on Army late.

Also helps Hawaii has already seen some option this year after playing navy. Hopefully, there's some retention. Gl

beware of betting on a game at Hawaii either way.  i am not saying the fix is in like all these other people do on Covers.

however, I am saying that strange , strange things happen at Hawaii games.

take for example earlier this year Fresno not covering after absolutely  dominating the first 3 quarters of the game

just sayin' strange things happen at Hawaii home games .  stay away .......
