They're not. Scotland is less pro-EU than most of the U.K. but not much more so than London.

Being sparsely populated, immigration and benefits abuse (which feeds the debate in England, even if it isn't the real reason we ought to be pushing for Out) doesn't really figure up here.

However, the SNPee has a major problem with any policy that is seen as being Tory, in that it is genetically hard-wired to be in opposition to it. The Nats are Europhiles because they see the Tories as Eurosceptics. Sadly, that is the infantilised state of Scottish politics these days.
