Pick

I’m sticking with Eastern Washington here. Neither team really has anything to play for, as Idaho State’s just trying to hold firm in the middle of the Big Sky, and Eastern Washington already has the regular season title and the top-seed in the conference tournament locked up, and the only thing they have to go for here is their unbeaten record in conference play. That being said, I think the Eagles are just the better team and I think Eastern Washington wants to go into the conference tournament with as much momentum as possible so I’ll lay it and play it with Eastern Washington here.
