Mountain West Football: 3 Bold Predictions for Hawaii at Colorado State

1. Déjà Vu

As mentioned before, the Rams went into Aloha Stadium last season and scored 50 points in a 30-point win against the Warriors. And with the Rams at home, don’t expect anything different. Colorado State will win this in a blowout, scoring over 50 points. 

Starting off the year with a win that saw your team scoring 50 points is a dream for many, but for the Rams, they look to make it an annual occurrence. In their opening game last season, the Rams took down the Oregon State Beavers, 58-27.

The Rams offense will get several extra possessions in the first half thanks to their defense forcing the Warriors to turn the ball over multiple times. And once they get ahead, there won’t be any stopping them until they start to put in the reserves in the second half. A big win over a conference opponent will build traction for the Rams for the rest of the season. For Hawaii, it’s a dig-deep situation on what type of team the Warriors will be this year.
