Cal Poly vs Hawaii Prediction

Hawaii has been the better team this season and have been almost undefeated at home with just one loss in 16 home games played. They have been in very good form lately with a 7-3 in their last 10 games but are just 1-4 against the spread. On the flip side, Cal Poly is 4-2 in its last 6 games and almost perfect against the spread with a 5-1 ATS record. The Rainbow Warriors are just 5-8 ATS at their home court while the Mustangs are 8-6 ATS on the road and have been slightly better offensively, so I don’t think they should be double digit dogs in this spot, as I expect them to keep this one kinda close. Take Cal Poly and get the +12.5 points in this one.
