When: Thursday, December 22

Where: Coors Event Center, Boulder

Just before Christmas, the Buffs get a visit from a team out of the Big Sky Conference.

After losing their first two games of the season, the Eastern Washington Eagles have won five in a row, and have winnable games on their schedule prior to a matchup with the Buffs. That said, this could be a hungry, upset-minded squad come December 22, but expect Boyle to have his team focused and ready.

Eastern Washington averages a touch over 77 points per game, and I expect them to keep this one close in the early going before the Buffs pull away in the second half.

Prediction: Colorado 84, Eastern Washington 69

Predicted record after next 5 games: 9-4
