Robert Arnold scored 26 points and Zack Moritz came off the bench to score 18 as Boise State eased past Eastern Washington 83-54 on Wednesday night.

Boise State (4-0) is off to its best start since the 1998-99 season.

Laron Griffin led Eastern Washington (1-3) with 13 points, and Cliff Ederaine added 11.

With last season's Big Sky defensive player of the year, Glen Dean, sitting out with a bruised hand, the Eagles struggled to slow Boise State's fast-paced offensive attack.
