Florida St has a healthy and huge O line returning and should be one of the most improved in the country. With QB James Blackman and Running Back Cam Akers having time to operate, this will be a completely different offense this year. Florida St returns a great defense with 8 starters back. Boise St will be starting a freshman QB and will be experiencing life after four year starting QB Brett Rypien.

This line is down right disrespectful to the Irish after the campaign they had last year. If ND did not have to play Michigan and Georgia on the road, they would be favored to make a return to the playoffs this year. Look for Notre Dame to try to make a statement in this game and cover the spread.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Week 0 Results:<\/p>\n<p><b>Saturday (August\u00a0 24th) \u2013 <span style=\"color: #008000;\">Arizona <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Vs Hawaii\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Loss <\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Hawaii\u00a0 45-38\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><\/b>(Vegas\u00a0<b> Arizona<\/b> -10.5 )\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 (Game Picker\u00a0<b> Arizona<\/b> by 22.43\u00a0 )<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ArizVsHawaii.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"22026\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/2019-college-football-week-1-premium-picks-against-the-spread\/arizvshawaii-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ArizVsHawaii.png?fit=1107%2C635&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1107,635\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"ArizVsHawaii\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ArizVsHawaii.png?fit=300%2C172&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ArizVsHawaii.png?fit=1024%2C587&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-22026\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ArizVsHawaii.png?resize=300%2C172&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ArizVsHawaii.png?resize=300%2C172&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ArizVsHawaii.png?resize=768%2C441&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ArizVsHawaii.png?resize=1024%2C587&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/collegefootballgamepicker.com\/Picker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ArizVsHawaii.png?w=1107&amp;ssl=1 1107w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Arizona QB Khalil Tate was on the cover of Sports Illustrated at the beginning of the season last year being touted as the best QB in college football. A season-long ankle injury derailed his junior year. He is once again healthy and will be somewhat unstoppable this year with most of his starting offensive line back. Arizona&#8217;s defense returns 8 starters and should be much improved after an injury plagued 2018 campaign. Arizona should be one of the most improved teams in college football in Coach Kevin Sumlin&#8217;s 2nd year. Hawaii returns an experienced team that faded down the stretch last year allowing an average of 40 points a game over the last seven games. Arizona will have much more talent on the field. Look for Arizona to cover the spread in this one as QB Khalil Tate has a great opening game.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>T<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>There will be 6 Premium Picks for Week 1!
