Washington is coming off a disappointing one point loss to California at home last week. Now the Huskies welcome Hawaii to Seattle. The Huskies are whopping 22-point favorites over the visitors.

The Huskies have not shown to be anything special in their first two games. They walloped Eastern Washington as they should have and then as previously mentioned, lost to Cal by a point. The Golden Bears were a two touchdown underdog heading into the match-up.

Hawaii’s defense is not great, but they can put up points on offense. Their Run and Shoot offense is known to put up some prolific statistics and this season thus far has been no different. The Rainbow Warriors are averaging 38 points and 542 total yards per game. They also have defeated two Pac-12 opponents already in Arizona and Oregon State. Now they will go for their third.

Considering the high point spread, this seems like a crazy pick here. It truly would be an upset if it happens. Logic says Washington bounces back at home and destroys Hawaii. Logic goes out the door this time. Hawaii and their vaunted offense scores just enough in the shootout to take down the Huskies.
