Shane’s Free Pick
There are better games to bet on the board. That being said, Nevada is going to find success here. Hawaii’s offense looked awful in the last game, and they don’t have the offense to keep this game close. Nevada scored 34 points in the last game and they are going to have no issue running up the score in this game. This is going to be a comfortable victory for Nevada. Back Nevada against the spread.
Shane’s Pick Nevada -3.5
