Eastern Washington vs Montana Prediction

Eastern Washington beat Montana a month ago, but if anything, that creates a revenge spot here. Eastern Washington has also had zero success on the road this season. Montana has been head and shoulders the more consistent team this season and has covered 8 of its last 10 games. Eastern Washington doesn’t play a lick of defense, and those issues don’t get cleaned up on the road. I’ll lay the points with Montana at home.
