Boise State went into the season as a frontrunner to represent the Group of Five in the College Football Playoff. The Broncos are still well on track to do that as they are now in Mountain West play.
They are 4-1 overall, with their only loss being a three-point game at Oregon. They’ve already beaten Washington State by 21 points, and their most recent triumph was a 62-30 victory over Utah State.
But Boise State will only remain in a good position to make the CFP if it continues to win this week against Hawaii.

Boise State vs. Hawaii Prediction
I project Boise State will win and cover the spread at -21. I also project the game will go Over 60.5 total points.
I realize this game might not be as easy as some might think. Making the trip to Hawaii could be a challenge, and although the Rainbow Warriors are 2-3 overall, they’ve played in close games against UCLA and San Diego State.
But as shown against Utah State, I believe Boise State isn’t a team to mess around and let games get close when they shouldn’t be. I’m anticipating Boise State star running back Ashton Jeanty will have another fantastic outing. And while Hawaii’s passing offense might help the Rainbow Warriors put up a few points, I expect Boise State’s defense to play well enough for the Broncos to win by more than three touchdowns.
