South Florida went 6-0 at home but 0-6 on the road. They take a LONG road trip for this one to the Hawaii Bowl. QB Byrum Brown hasn't played since a September injury, and backup QB Bryce Archie has nine TDs and nine interceptions. The defense ranks 123rd in the nation in yards given up (460.8 per game). In their last road game, South Florida lost 35-28 at Rice as a 5.5-point favorite. They also have a 45-10 loss at Tulane as a +4 underdog. San Jose State head coach Ken Niumataolo is a native of Hawaii. San Jose lost twice to Top 25 teams while going 7-3 against everybody else. In the last four games, QB Walker Eget has thrown nine TDs and four picks with games throwing for 395, 446, and 385 yards. He threw for 385 yards in the last game, a 34-31 victory over Stanford. San Jose has a big-play threat in WR Justin Lockhart (973 yards) and the better defense. Back San Jose State on the moneyline.
