Weber State vs Northern Colorado Prediction

Weber State hung around with Northern Colorado a week ago, losing 68-63. That should provide some sort of confidence, but this is also a Weber State team that hasn’t been able to string together success all year and is now on the end of a back-to-back. Northern Colorado has been the best team in the Big Sky all year and has beaten up on a lot of the competition. With the rest advantage, this has the potential to get ugly. I’m not sure Weber State will have the legs to defend this Northern Colorado offensive attack that’s scored 83 or more points in three of its last four games. I’ll lay the points with Northern Colorado. 

Randy Chambers's Pick: Northern Colorado -9.5
