It is certainly fun to have college football games to wager on every single day during bowl season, but there are several things to consider before you dive in, starting with the fact that you may be wagering in teams you know very little about.
You also have to keep in mind that some players will opt out, and that some teams are going to look at this game as more of a fun trip than a meaningful game.
USF Bulls vs San Jose State Spartans Oddss Analysis
A trip to Hawaii certainly falls into that latter category, making this matchup perhaps a little more difficult to predict.
The USF Bulls and San Jose State will be in the beautiful state of Hawaii for a bowl game on Christmas Eve, but how will it all play out?
It is the Spartans who are in as a 3-point favorite, with the total for this game set at 63. Let’s take a closer look at the 2024 Hawaii Bowl.
USF Bulls vs San Jose State Spartans Odds & Betting Prediction
I think we might be treated to some great offensive football in this one, but I am not totally sold on the point total, which is why I am leaning toward the UNDER.
I am also taking the San Jose State Spartans to win and cover.
USF Bulls 24, San Jose State Spartans 33

USF Bulls Analysis and Trends
The Bulls became bowl eligible with a game to spare in the regular season, but they closed things out with a loss to Rice in their final game of the season, where they were in as a 5 ½ point favorite. Could that defeat be seen as a sign that they are not really up for this one, or will they be coming in with something to prove after that defeat?

The Bulls ended the regular season with a 6-6 record, although they did go 4-2 through their final 6 games after snapping out of a 3-game losing skid. Over the last 9 games of the season, they were not a particularly good bet against the spread, going 3-6 during that run of games. They were a good deal more predictable when it came to the point total, with 5 of their last 6 games going OVER the posted total.
^San Jose State Spartans Analysis and Trends
After going 7-5 in the regular season, the Spartans have a slightly better record than their opponent here, but it is also worth noting that they were not as strong coming down the stretch. While San Jose State did win their final game of the regular season to ensure a winning record, they still went a rather unremarkable 2-3 in their final 5 games overall. That being said, this is still a team that has won 13 of their last 19 games, so they do know how to get the job done.

Like the Bulls, San Jose State has not been a great bet against the spread, covering just twice in the last 8 games. The point total has been trending UNDER for the Spartans, with 5 of their last 7 games going that route, as well as 6 of their last 7 in the month of December.
