In response to SRP
I remember at Game #6 at the Palestra (90th Anniversary), the Quakers had difficulty getting off shots without time expiring. That day, it looked like "men against boys". Even in the warm ups, two Penn fans commented the Tigers are taller, stronger and more athletic.
Best strategy for the Tigers is to smother Penn defensively -- do not let them breathe. Gladson played too many minutes that night and Rothschild did exploit him. Penn's defense will probably force the Tigers to make 3 pointers.
Who knows what you get with the Penn team --- the team that beat Harvard or the one that lost to Dartmouth at home the night before. Tigers need to play confident yet incredibly intense and if they get the opportunity close them out as soon as you can unlike the first game at Jadwin.
