Nevada Wolf Pack (4-1) vs Hawaii Rainbow Warriors (3-3)
Saturday, October 16, 2021 at 10:30 pm
At 10:30 pm, our selection is on the Nevada Wolf Pack minus the points over Hawaii. The Rainbow Warriors had last weekend off following their 27-24 upset home win on October 2nd vs. Fresno, while Nevada won by 27 here, in Reno, vs. New Mexico State. This will be Hawaii's 3rd trip to the mainland this season, and they were smashed in the first two: 44-10 by UCLA, and 45-27 by Oregon State. Over the years, I've loved playing against Hawaii on the mainland in certain situations, and this Saturday's game in Reno fits many of Hawaii's worst point spread roles, including this 100% perfect angle. Since 1980, Hawaii is 0-16 ATS on the road, when rested, and installed as an underdog of +20 or less points. Even better: double-digit underdogs with a .363 (or better) record are a poor 35-73 ATS off an upset win as a double-digit dog, if their opponent was off back to back wins. Lay the points with Nevada. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
