Kickoff for Mountain West Conference play is scheduled for 11:00 PM ET (CBS Sports Network). Let’s review BetMGM Sportsbook’s college football odds around the Boise State vs. Hawaii chancesand make our expert college football picks and predictions.

The Broncos are heading to the Isles, and Heisman hopefuls are RB Ashton Jeanty looks to add to his impressive totals. Jeanty has amassed 1,031 rushing yards, 10.9 yards per rushing attempt and 16 TDs in just five games so far.

Boise State has scored 34 or more in all five games, and has scored 45 or more points in four of the games. The Broncos are 3-1 against the spread (ATS) in their past four games, while conceding the Over in all five games.

The Rainbow Warriors suffered a 27-24 loss at San Diego State last Saturday, but it was a season-high for offensive production against an FBS opponent. De Over (48) cashed for the first time in 5 games. Hawaii failed to cover as a 1-point dog against the Aztecs, and is just 2-3 ATS in 5 games, including 2-1 ATS at home.

Boise State in Hawaii picks and predictions

Prediction

Boise State 45, Hawaii 27

Moneyline

Boise State (-1600) will give you 16 times your potential return, and that’s way too much risk for not nearly enough reward. There is never any reason to bet that high on a favorite, whether in a standalone game or as part of a multi-leg parlay.

PREVENT.

Against the spread

HAWAII +21 (-110) is worth playing with the points.

Boise State -21 (-110) should be avoided as Jeanty may struggle against Hawaii for a while. However, he has shown that even when bottled up, he has the potential to take the ball home when he touches the ball. If he backs Hawaii, bettors will hold their breath every time Boise goes on the offensive.

Hawaii doesn’t have the horses to compete on the ground. However, it got the offense going against San Diego State, as QB Brayden Schager threw for 272 yards and 3 touchdowns. Boise State actually allows 278.8 passing yards per game and ranks 124th in FBS.

Top/Bottom

MORE THAN 59.5 (-110) is perhaps the best game in this battle on the islands.

Boise State has posted a high win total in all five games so far. Last weekend it fell 62 points to Utah State, and it has 45 or more points in 4 games, and 56 or more points in 3 occasions.

Although Hawaii scored a low hit in four of its five games, it conceded the Over last time at San Diego State. With Schager throwing the ball in the ring and Boise State’s defense fairly leaky, we should see plenty of points in Saturday’s final game.
