This is a 10* BEATDOWN on Hawaii.

This line has come down as the Bowl has approached, but I still like Hawaii and Chevan Cordeiro to keep this one close enough to cover with the large spread.

Hawaii and Houston are both terrible defensively, so let's call that deparment a "wash." Houston's defense is likely even worse than Hawaii's though and that's where Cordeiro will have some opportunities today.

Note that the lowest points total that Houston gave up this year was 21 points (USF and NAVY, both of whom are much worse offensively than Hawaii is.)

Clayton Tune will move the sticks for Houston, but Hawaii has the offense capable of keeping the pressure on throughout.

I'm grabbing the points.

Good luck, NP
