will have to bring in Tyler . We'll just have to RACK him too !!
I was watching that nice you tube clip that you posted , & it seems to me , that Coach Jones & a few other Hawaii players that were interview , seem VERY NERVOUS about playing the MIGHTY SPARTANS !!  I'm STILL sticking with MY SPARTANS & the score,
28-27 San Jose State !!

Mighty spartans.

Talking smack can be amusing, but at least try to sound credible.

Hey Dont you know that you cant knock hawaii they dont make their schedule. i know alot of good teams didnt want to play them this season. I remember they beat a good arizona st team last year that is undefeated this year and is ranked higher than them. Yeah they are 1-3 in conference play ats. But you cant stop their O. Their D is Questionable at times...But the coordinator got them going this week..I think hawaii at the half and the over....

That's right my friend , MIGHTY SPARTANS !!
I ain't talking SMACK , I'm just stating THE TRUTH !!!
The ONLY SMACK that's going to happen , is the SMACK(S) that the MIGHTY SPARTANS will put on Colt Brennan !!!
For your final score that you predicted ( LOL !! ) I think that your computer keyboard has a flaw in it . I have NO IDEA what score you were trying to type in !! Maybe it was 28 - 27 SJS !!! That sounds about right !! .... It's GONNA BE A LONNNNNNNG QUIET BORING trip back to Hawaii !!!

P.S. - WE ( San Jose State ) came with in an eye lash of beating the ONLY UNBEATEN team last year in college football, YES , Boise State . We lost the game 23 - 20. WE lead Boise by 10 points with 7 minutes to go in the game. To tell you the truth , even though we lost to Boise State ( the best team in college football last year ) I was VERY VERY PROUD the way my MIGHTY SPARTANS PLAYED !! .Last year , AH DO BELIEVE ........Hawaii LOST to Boise State & allowed Boise State to score over 40 points ..............Good defense pal !!

Everybody, are you not seeing a trend on weeknight college football?  I am almost a 100% on this so far.  Take a look at what the consensus is on this website, I know it isn't vegas and all bets, but It gives you a pretty good idea of what the general public wants to take, and then watch the line moves.  Example Pitt Navy, 55% were on Pitt and the line came down on game day in favor of Pitt?  I took Navy and won.  Now the same thing happened with Wake Forest tonight, Line moved in FSU favor with consensus on FSU, still waiting for game to finish but took Wake.  Now for Hawaii, general public likes Hawaii and line is moving in Hawaii favor?  I know Hawaii is a great football team, but no cover here for Hawaii.

YOU GUYS ARE CRAZY IF YOU THINK HAWAII IS GOING TO COVER THIS HUGE SPREAD! A HOME DOG GETTING THIS MANY POINTS, NOT TO MENTION NATIONALLY TELEVISED GAME...I BET ON UTAH STATE LAST WEEK, AND WILL BET ON SAN JOSE THIS WEEK. I KNOW THE BACKUP PLAYED REALLY WELL LAST WEEK, FINISHING THE GAME WITH A 25+ YARD PER PASS AVERAGE, BUT I GUARANTEE THAT SAN JOSE WILL COVER. I HAVE BEEN READING SOME OF THIS JUNK ON HERE FOR A LONG TIME, AND A LOT OF YOU INEXPERIENCED BETTORS ARE PROBABLY TAKING SOME BAD INFO. I HAVE NOTHING TO GAIN FROM GIVING PICKS, BUT SOME OF THESE PEOPLE WORK FOR VEGAS AND WANT YOU TO GO WITH THE STUPID PUBLIC, B/C THE PUBLIC IS MOST ALWAYS WRONG....HENCE THE REASON VEGAS IS RICH AND THE AVERAGE BETTOR IS NOT. TAKE THE SAN JOSE STATE ON ANY LINE +15 OR MORE...GOOD LUCK

GO WITH THE UNDER AS WELL.....AND AS STATMAN21 SAID, YOU HAVE TO REALIZE THAT THE MEDIA AND EVERYONE ELSE IS TRYING TO SELL US (THE PUBLIC) CRAP. DONT BELIEVE WHAT YOU HEAR ON ESPN OR ON ANY WEBSITE, IT IS ALL SET UP FOR YOU TO LOSE YOUR MONEY. ANY TIME YOU SEE THE PUBLIC IN FAVOR OF ONE TEAM 60% OR MORE, THEN YOU WILL BE SAFE IN TAKING THE UNDERDOG. IT MAY BE HARD TO STOMACH, BUT YOU CAN NEVER GO WITH A SURE THING, AND ALWAYS TAKE THE OPPOSITE OF A HEAVY PUBLIC FAVORITE....PEACE

Hawaii wins HUGE!  No doubt about it..the defense is back to full strength...people tend to forget that they sat out starters from last weeks game and coach told Colt to sit...why risk injury when its an easy win...They are gonna light the scoreboard up on National TV..Coach Jones has this team prepared and will not disappoint under the friday night lights...Craig James (espn analyst) get ready to eat your words!!!!
 
HAWAII 55
SJSI      27

best bet here is to take a vow of celebacy and abstain from this game, actually go out and get laid rather than f around with these funky hawaii lines, they are always whack, there is rarely value in laying the points after hawaii lands on the main land and the spread at home is usually more than compensatory, no value here again this week.
 
stay away
my early lean was on Sjst, when it opened +17.5, anything over 17 sounded good to me, i still think it will win but am not willing to put my money where my mouth is here, and everyone should consider doing the same
 
another note:
consider this when you are betting:
bet in units that give you value, for example
a 54 dollar bet @ -110 holds a vig of $5 (so rish 59 to win 54) (10% of 54 is 5.4 so it should a risk of $59.4, that would be a true 10% vig, while the rounded down vig is $.40 lower and therefore better odds, work the math with me here, its worth your while
 
meanwhile the same vig is conceded on a $45 bet, where you risk $50 becaue a true 10% vig is actually risking $45+$4.50=$49.50 but it is rounded up to $50 for the obvious reasons and therefore carries a added 1% (-111)
 
it goes to reason that your units should be in incriments of $14, $24, $34, $44, $54, etc. (here are your best odds -109.3) 
and never $15, $25, $35, $45 (here your odds are -111)
 
so let me know what you think and consider my advice, i'm ivy league educated and thought this kinda of speculation might be appreciated, especially after you see it start working for you

good stuff

I like math stuff

even though I have

a 3rd grade education.

Keep in mind your info

is correct @  - 110

With regard to other

lines say ...  @ +110

Now you WANT  to bet

ending in fives !

In short, when it is working

against you, get it to fall

at 49 cents or less. When

with .... make it go to 50

cents or more !

55.00 x 1.7 = 93.50 ( 94 )
52.00 x 1.7 = 88.40 ( 88 )
 
 
88 divided by 52 = 1.6923
94 divided by 55 = 1.7091
 
 
every little bit helps !!

Conspiracy? 
 
The week before Hawaii plays Utah St. w/ a 40pt spread.  Of course, we can't cover.  Hawaii wins 52 - 37. 
 
SJSU plays the same Utah St earlier, and the spread is 2points.  SJSU wins 23 - 20 with a go-ahead TD w/ 53 sec's left.
 
Covers runs a story the day before the game claiming Colt Brennan will not play.  Covers also claims that Hawaii's defense struggled against Idaho and Utah St.  Both claims are NOT TRUE.
 
Colt Brennan will start the SJSU game.  It is ESPN with Tostitos Bowl officials and NFL scouts in attendance.  Do you think they showed up to view the Spartans?
 
I advised against betting the Hawaii/Utah St. game.  40 points was ridiculous.  Hawaii does not play it's games based on Vegas spreads.  Idaho and Utah St. were meaningless wins which were sealed in the first half.  The scores in those two games does not reflect a weak defense.
 
What is the spread?  All the houses still list 18.5.  Why does the NCAAF matchup say 17points?
 
Conspiracy indeed.

Okay.  This is good.  Every house is at 17.5 now.  I have never seen this happen to Hawaii before.  Consensus betting is 64% for Hawaii.  Covers staff is in favor of SJSU 5 to 6.

All's quiet on the usual reliable sources for Hawaii.  Stephen Tsai of the Star Bulletin travels w/ the team and gave glowing, carnival reports of today's activities as of 2:30pm.

I don't know what you guys are smoking.  Colt starts.  He plays most of the game with NFL and Tostitos bowl scouts in attendance.

If your are alarmed, wait till the last minute.  The line is dropping.  You will know if something is fishy just before the game.

Good luck.  My bet's already in.

These are the latest sports newscasts from Hawaii.  There is no indication of stress...whatsoever. 
 
 
Hawaii can't hold-up on this game.  I'm sorry SJSU backers.

You are basically saying that SJSU's defense will stop Hawaii from scoring their average 38 plus points per game. Hawaii's defense will not stop SJSU's offense from scoring.Wow!!!!!

Since I'm in a good mood and got some cash from the Wake Forest game last night I will play your game.....

Just call me a crazy inexperienced bettor who is going to take..

Hawaii final minus whatever.

iangoogs can you do me a favor and take your Caps Lock off when you post it seems as though that you are yelling at all of us. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated

Toronto My friend I just learned more math from you in one post than I ever did in High School & College put together.

Aloha and good luck my bruddah's perfect timing to have a Hawaii game on Aloha Friday

How confident are you bd? I want so badly to jump on Hawaii 1st quarter, at the half, and the final. I also like the under in this one. How do you feel my friend? Thanks and good luck
