Hawaii is set to host San Jose State after a strong performance by Akira Jacobs, who scored 20 points in Hawaii's recent 96-61 victory over Life Pacific. Last season, the Rainbow Warriors excelled at home with a 13-6 record and an overall 20-14 mark, shooting 45.8% from the field and 34.1% from beyond the arc. San Jose State, on the other hand, struggled in conference play, going 2-17 in the Mountain West and 1-12 on the road. The Spartans relied on 11.2 points off turnovers, 7.7 second-chance points, and 14.5 bench points per game. This game will be a test for the Spartans as they aim to improve their road performance against a solid Hawaii squad. The Spartans come in off two losses to Pacific and WIU, so they will want to get in the win column, and we think they show up here to play as they have bottom feeder Life Pacific on deck, so the Rainbow Warriors will have the Spartans full attention, and we think they hang tough.
