Idaho

EWU on road favored by 7. EWU is 15-3 covering the spread which is crazy. Crazy good for me..$$$ .ha

IMO Idaho is a lot better than their record implies. The Eagles made this a lot closer game than it should have been. While the Vandals played good defense, possible causing the sub 40% shooting. Defense does not cause missed free throws. Terrible shooting all around

Concur clawman the shooting % not there today and missing those free throws was painful. Their big mouthed coach may have given us the game. Idaho's Jones is a baller, even on one leg...impressed. The best thing about winning the 15th in a row was doing it with a subpar performance. Good teams do that and this is a GOOD team. So much so was looking at going to Boise for the BSC tourny.

I agree... that's what's most impressive to me as well. This team is finding ways to win even when they play an off game. Eastern struggled mightily against Idaho, missing a bazillion free throws that would have made it an easy win, yet they still got it done on the road. The scary thing is that there's likely more talent in the Big Sky this year than most seasons, and there are a lot of teams that can beat us if they play great. That's a bugaboo in a conference with one bid... everything comes down to the tourney and you never know who might be hot at that time. Even teams piling up losses like Northern Colorado and Idaho are dangerous on the wrong day.

I think ewu and mt st are head and shoulders above the rest of the big sky, and it’s not even close.
