Hawaii vs San Jose State Pick
This game triggered one of our Action PRO Systems, powered by Evan Abrams.
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, with closing totals 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 is not 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.
I’m in on backing the Bows.
I think some of their season-long offensive numbers are deflated from Miach Alejado’s early-season injury. He looks healthy now, completing 68% of his passes for 1,171 yards, nine scores, and only two interceptions at 8.4 yards per attempt over the past three weeks — all Hawaii victories.
The Bows are quietly 6-2 on the season, including 3-1 in conference play.
While the offense is coming together (119 points over the past three games), the defense has been relatively good all season, specifically against the pass (30th nationally in EPA per Dropback allowed).
That coverage unit will be critical against a San Jose State offense that leads the nation in Pass Play Rate (65%).
At the same time, Hawaii ranks second nationally in Pass Play Rate (63%), but will be facing a San Jose State defense that ranks 115th nationally in EPA per Dropback allowed.
Also, Hawaii had a bye week last week, while San Jose State lost a tough one on the road to Utah State. The Bows will be the more well-rested squad on Saturday night.
Pick: Hawaii ML (+110, bet365)
