Oh, and some fun numbers:
Since 2015 in Ivy play, the team winning the Game Script was 160-36.
Overcoming Game Scripts is pretty random. Here are some of the biggest ones over the past four seasons of Ivy play:
2016 - Harvard 76, CORNELL 74 (-13.1 Game Script)
2015 - DARTMOUTH 75, Brown 69 (-11.5)
2016 - Columbia 55, HARVARD 54 (-8.8)
2015 - BROWN 57, Cornell 56 (-6.4)
2015 - Penn 71, CORNELL 69 (-6.0)
2016 - Princeton 88, COLUMBIA 83 (-5.9)
2017 - Yale 75, BROWN 74 (-4.1)
All the rest were under four. So, as you can see, the ability to win a game script that is more than four points against you is very hard (Ivy teams are 7-111 in those games in league play over the past four seasons).
