Game Analysis
Lean – Utah State (-1) 29 HAWAII 23
Hawaii’s pass-heavy offense (66% pass plays) doesn’t match up well against a Utah State defense that’s good defending the pass (6.2 yards per pass play allowed to quarterbacks that would combine to average 7.0 yppp against an average defense). The Warriors have been 1.0 yards per play worse than average offensively with QB Micah Alejado in the game and Utah State has a better than average defense that has handled worse than average offensive teams (allowed just 11.5 points per game to UTEP nd McNeese State).
Utah State’s offense, led by dual-threat QB Bryson Barnes (upgraded to cleared to play), is 0.3 yppl better than average while Hawaii’s defense rates at 0.3 yppl worse than average even after adjusting for their negative outlier performance against Air Force’s option attack.
