Hawaii vs Colorado State Pick, Betting Analysis
Hawaii is currently 5-2 on the season and on a two-game winning streak. More importantly, the Rainbow Warriors have been underdogs in four games this season, and they've won half of those games outright.
Evan Abrams' "Short Road Dogs" system says the Rainbow Warriors will do the same in this game against Mountain West opponent Colorado State this week.
The system is +$10,484 overall with a return on investment of 7% since its inception in 2005.
"Short Road Dogs" is a college football system that focuses on underdogs playing away from home in the regular season when the moneyline falls in a competitive range that signals a realistic chance to win outright.
These teams are visitors facing manageable matchups where the closing total is between 41 and 71, suggesting balanced scoring potential rather than extreme results.
Line movement on the total that stays within a narrow window from open to close reflects market stability and avoids heavy adjustments that could skew value.
By isolating games where the underdog isn't severely overmatched but still priced attractively, the system captures overlooked spots where road teams can pull off wins more often than the odds imply, creating steady long term value on the moneyline.
Pick: Hawaii ML +115
