Milwaukee is coming into this matchup on Friday night as a 13.5 point underdog with the current betting odds according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Milwaukee have not been playing well this season but they just snapped a losing streak with a win in their last game and they should have some more confidence for this game. Colorado has been having a good season but they have actually lost their 1 home game this season and they have a bad record ATS as well. Colorado is a better team and will win this game but they cannot be trusted to cover that number with the way they have been playing. The best bet to place in this game is on Milwaukee to cover the spread here.

"I don't sense panic. There's frustration. I think if it's one game, two games, five games, they don't like to lose.” - Pat Baldwin on his team’s poor start to the season.

 

 

“(Eastern Washington) is a good team. They made it to the tournament. They’ve got some guys that want to be Pac-12 players, so they’re going to go at us. They want to prove they’re better than Pac-12 teams. They’ll have a chip on their shoulders, and we’ve got to have a chip on our shoulders.” - Tad Boyle after their win against EWU.
