Beating Penn on the road is about as difficult as beating Provy, Seton Hall or Vandy at home. Or Stanford, UConn or Memphis on a neutral floor.

Maybe not the scariest propositions in the world, but certainly those games would have my attention...



If the numbers say that, I believe you. But I'm trying to find a real-world example where that played out this season. I'm not coming up with anything.

Providence absolutely destroyed Brown (albeit at home).

As we discussed briefly on the Dartmouth board, I'm not convinced that the numbers always translate well into what's actually happening. I still think that Princeton shouldn't be whining about "home court advantage" if they somehow lose to a 6-8 Penn team in the tourney.
