FORT COLLINS, COLO. (AP) -- Dorian Green scored 20 points to help Colorado State to its eighth straight win, 66-55 over Boise State on Tuesday night.

Kaipo Sabas had 13 points and Greg Smith 10 for Colorado State (13-4, 2-0 Mountain West). Leading scorer Wes Eikmeier matched a season low of five points on 2 of 10 shooting.

The Rams' last eight-game winning streak was from Nov. 18-Dec. 30, 2006. The second win in the streak was a 67-50 victory over Boise State.

Westly Perryman led Boise State (10-7, 0-2) with 16 points. Ryan Watkins had 12 for the Broncos, who played without second-leading scorer Kenny Buckner.

Team spokesman Joe Nickel said that Buckner was kept home for an academic eligibility review.
