ASA PLAY ON 8* UNDER 55.5 Stanford @ Hawaii, Friday 11 PM ET - This line opened at 58.5 total points but has since been bet down to the current number of 55.5. We like Under in what shapes up to be a low scoring game. Hawaii and Timmy Chang are expected to play fast with their uptempo offense but that is not what we saw in Week 0 when they faced Vanderbilt. The Warriors ran a play every 29.4 seconds which is dramatically slower than their pace a year ago of 23.9 plays per second. In fact, the 29.4 plays/second in last week’s game would have ranked them 126th slowest last season. Hawaii ran 60 plays last week against Vandy and produced 391 total yards of offense. The Rainbow Warriors defense was better than expected against the Commodores as they allowed 297 total yards on 56-plays. Hawaii was 113th in scoring a year ago at 19.4PPG. Stanford comes into this season in complete rebuild mode with a young roster and new coaching staff. They lack experience at the QB position and return just 3 starters on that side of the football. This Cardinal team averaged just 19.5PPG a season ago which was 109th in the nation. Defensively the Cards return 9 starters and should be improved from a season ago when they allowed 34.2PPG (115th). But also remember those stats came against a schedule that featured six of the top 30 scoring teams in college football last season. Hawaii is in a tough travel situation and playing conditions aren’t ideal with high winds expected for this game. The Under trend continues in Week 1.
