On Saturday they will play host to the Warriors of Hawaii (1-3 SU, 0-3 ATS) in Western Athletic Conference action that is slated for a 10 PM ET kickoff at Bulldog Stadium (natural turf) in Fresno, CA. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Saturday, October 4<\/p>\n<p><strong>BetUS NCAA Football Betting Odds<\/strong>: FRESNO STATE -22, Total 54<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are some of the NCAA college football betting trends as they relate to this matchup:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>* HAW has won 20 of its last 25 games SU<br \/>\n* HAW has lost four of its last five games SU<br \/>\n* HAW has played eight of its last nine games UNDER the total<br \/>\n* HAW has lost its last five road games ATS<br \/>\n* HAW has won eight of its last 11 road games SU<br \/>\n* HAW has played five of its last seven road games UNDER the total<br \/>\n* FRES has covered two of its last six games<br \/>\n* FRES has won six of its last seven games SU<br \/>\n* FRES has covered two of its last six home games<br \/>\n* FRES has won seven of its last nine home games SU<br \/>\n* FRES has played four of its last six home games UNDER the total<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also&#8230;.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>* HAW has covered six of the last nine meetings<br \/>\n* HAW has won five of the last seven meetings SU<br \/>\n* FRES has won four of the last six meetings SU as the home team<\/p>\n<p>Fresno State did indeed struggle a bit against UCLA, winning by just five points. But along the line of fundamentals, it is important to note that the Bulldogs gained 207 yards and a little more than five yards a carry on the ground. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.betus.com\/ats\/11892\/mid\/1414\/promo\/football\/gameoftheweek\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/a>That&#8217;s significant as they head into this home game against Hawaii, which was overwhelmed against the only balanced offense (Florida) that it has met thus far.<\/p>\n<p>When QB Colt Brennan took off for the pros and coach June Jones departed for SMU, there went the efficiency in the Hawaii passing attack. Brennan had an outstanding 131-42 touchdown-to-interception ratio in his career, which led to Heisman and All-America consideration. But this year&#8217;s club has attained only four TD&#8217;s through the air in four games, with 11 interceptions. So it&#8217;s fair to say they&#8217;ve got a lot of catching up to do.<\/p>\n<p>Hawaii doesn&#8217;t have a running game (95 yards\/game &#8211; 107th in country), which isn&#8217;t a big surprise. The Warriors have allowed almost 43 points a game to Division I opposition, which is not a shocker either. They have been dreadful in terms of field position, ranking among the worst teams in the country on punting, punt returns and kickoff returns. And their minus-15 turnover ratio is BY FAR the worst in all of major college football.<\/p>\n<p>Those are too many shortcomings when you have problems on the mainland (0-5 ATS last five as visitor) and are facing a team with a chip on its shoulder, because when you add in the fact that Fresno State has lost two straight to Hawaii, and had to endure a 68-point outburst at Aloha Stadium in 2006, and the Bulldogs can pretty much name the score here. Let&#8217;s lay the points with Fresno, the 22-point favorite in the BetUS NCAA college football betting odds.<\/p>\n<h3>Our PLAY: FRESNO STATE -22 ***<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fresno State Bulldogs will play host to the Warriors of Hawaii in WAC action that is slated for Bulldog Stadium, we preview and pick this week 6 matchup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":68,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[30,164,166,287,1696,1485,470,471,2948,502,548,2950,2947,2946,2949,632,763,765,779,911,1039,1168,1260,1294,1775,2951,2657],"class_list":["post-2270","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ncaa-football","tag-30","tag-betting-lines","tag-betting-odds","tag-cfb-picks","tag-cfb-spreads","tag-football-lines","tag-free-pick","tag-free-picks","tag-fresno-state-bulldogs","tag-gambling-lines","tag-handicappers-predictions","tag-hawaii-vs-fresno-st","tag-hawaii-warriors","tag-hawaii-warriors-at-fresno-state-bulldogs","tag-hawaii-warriors-vs-fresno-state-bulldogs","tag-lines","tag-ncaa-football-betting","tag-ncaa-football-gambling","tag-ncaaf-betting","tag-odds","tag-previews","tag-sportsbook","tag-trends","tag-vegas-picks","tag-wagering-ncaaf-odds","tag-warriors-vs-bulldogs","tag-week-6"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2270","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/68"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2270"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2270\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":103266,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2270\/revisions\/103266"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2270"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2270"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2270"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
