Hawaii vs Nevada Prediction

I’m on the Wolf Pack here. I know Hawaii’s had the tougher schedule as of late, but the run and shoot offense that Hawaii likes to employ simply hasn’t worked this season, and the Wolf Pack are a team I have to give credit to. This team is far more ahead of schedule than I thought for a rebuilding program in year one and I think Nevada gets a nice win on the island here. Give me Nevada.
