Opening weekend of the college football season sees the Commodores and Rainbow Warriors meeting at Ching Athletics Complex on Saturday, August 27.
The Commodores are favored by 8 points in this matchup and we have a 53.5 showing on the total.
Vanderbilt Commodores
I know, right? Vanderbilt is favored over someone by nearly double-digits and it’s like wait, what? Even if it is Hawaii and they’ll be outrageously favored over Elon next weekend, it’s tough to just lay chalk with a team that’s this bad
The Commodores haven’t finished any of their last 3 campaigns with more than 3 wins, and Head Coach Clark Lea is being given another season to improve in Nashville. Vandy is returning 7 players on each side of the ball, but we all know that their SEC chances dwindle tremendously when conference play begins for them on September 24. you know, the Alabama game to open the SEC portion of the docket? Yeah, great! How many points do you think the Tide will be laying in that lovely affair?
All right, we’re not there yet, so let’s stay focused on what’s in front of us as a trip to Hawaii to open the campaign isn’t the worst ordeal to suffer through. Granted, the attention needs to be on football activities and it will be for the most part. IT sure is nice to get a week in Honolulu to prepare for a Hawaii team that is not expected to have a stellar season under 1st-year Head Coach Timmy Chang.
Vanderbilt has Mike Wright starting under center but unfortunately he lost most of his receivers so he has a lot of work to do with a young receiving corps to be ready for this opening day affair.
Hawaii Rainbow Warrior
Timmy Chang is back in Hawaii, and anyone my age or so remembers when he was moving this Rainbow Warrior offense at the beginning of the century. From 2000 to 2004, Chang was in Honolulu tossing the rock setting all kinds of passing records and now he holding the clipboard calling plays with Ian Shoemaker, who will be the team’s Offensive Coordinator.
Even though the Warriors ended last season with a 6 – 7 overall record, they were geared up to host the Hawaii Bowl against Memphis but the game got canceled.
That led to the firing of Todd Graham who was only given 2 years to make things happen on the island… but he still got them to a bowl game in each season, so life is tough out here, baby!
Cammon Cooper is poised to take over the starting QB role for the Warriors and he is doing his best to be seen as the next Gardner Minshew. If you check out his twitter feed, you can see his not only equivalent appearance but his fondness for Minshew as well.
Cammon is indeed a former Washington State Cougar as Minshew was, and he’ll have to put up a big year now that Chevan Cordeiro scooted for San Jose State in the transfer window.
