Heres some interesting information that I learned of this game.
Wisconsin will have at least 6,000 fans in the Staduim with a potential of up to 10,000 that are visiting for the the Maui Tournament (basketball), Thanksgiving vacation, as well as the football game.
Hawaii QB Brennan is confident that they will be able to move the ball against Wisconsin's defense. And normally he does not make statements like that.
One of Hawaii's best defensive lineman, Mel Purcell, if not their best defensive linemen did not practice on Tuesday. So more than likely he will not be that effective if he plays. Therefore Wisconsin might be able to run the ball at will against an already poor rushing defense. That is unless Glanville comes up with a great defensive scheme, which he might be able to do with the bye week.
More than liekly refs will not be as big of a factor as last year because Hawaii is already out of bowl contention. So what incentive do they get if Hawaii wins their next 2 games?
Another thing to note is Hawaii is a beast at home. They should have beat Boise State and kept it really close with Fresno State and probably should have beaten then as well.
Overall, my heart tells me Hawaii could cover, but I think Wisconsin might be the side to play on. But an even better bet to look at is the OVER 66 points. Wisconsin should run all over Hawaii, Hawaii should pass all over Wisconsin who ranks 102nd in the nation in yards given up per game at 431.3.
But like I said in my other posts I quit gambling, so you can take my input for what its worth.
