6. Score prediction
Broncos, big. I do not think the Warriors have much of a chance and Vegas and computers are not too high on them. Neither am I. Hawaii simply doesn’t have the talent from top to bottom to match Boise on a neutral field without the elements to deal with. In the cold mountains of Idaho, Boise State will look to win this game physically and capture their 2nd MWC Championship in 3 years. Boise State 48, Hawaii 27
Boise State 31 Hawaii 24

Boise State 33 – Hawai’i 17
55- 49 Boise State over Hawaii
Hawaii 35, Boise State 31. That’s right: an upset.
Hawaii has shown it can win a game in multiple ways, piling up points against San Jose State and Army and leaning on defense against San Diego State and UNLV, but that also means you never really know which Warriors team will show up on any given Saturday. If the pendulum swings the right way, they could absolutely steal this one by outscoring the Broncos, but trusting them to put it all together for 60 minutes is a bridge too far for me. Boise State will win, 45-34, and hope Memphis has stumbled at the finish line by game’s end.
