San Jose State is coming off a loss to the USC Trojans but the Spartans played well in their other outing defeating Southern Utah 45-14. Spartans quarterback Nick Starkel will pick apart a weak Hawaii defense that gave up 558 yards of offense to Oregon State in their loss on Saturday. Hawaii will put its share of points on the board but will not keep pace against a San Jose State defense that is allowing an average of only 22 points per game. Final Score Prediction, San Jose State Spartans win and cover ATS 33-27,
