Hawai'i vs Colorado State Pick & Prediction - 10/18/2025


The Hawai'i Rainbow Warriors will meet the Colorado State Rams on Saturday night. Hawai'i can secure a bowl bid with a win on Saturday, but they are slight underdogs on the road against a desperate Colorado State team. Before this game begins in Fort Collins, you can find my Hawai'i vs Colorado State prediction below.
Hawai‘i’s Micah Alejado has passed for 1,456 yards this season with nine touchdowns and five interceptions heading into this game. He also brings mobility at quarterback, as evidenced in the Utah State win, where he threw three touchdowns and ran for another.
Colorado State’s Jackson Brousseau has thrown for 565 yards and five touchdowns with no interceptions thus far. He has done a nice job since stepping in at quarterback for Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi and will try to continue doing so in this contest.
Score Projection: Hawai‘i 28 – Colorado State 27
Win Probability: Hawai‘i 51%, Colorado State 49%
This is going to be a tight game and will come down to which team can execute its offense in crunch time. I think that team will be Hawai'i, whose quarterback continuity is a huge plus in a situation like this. I'll take Hawai'i to win outright as a slight underdog and to get to six wins on the year, which means bowl eligibility.
