Cornell (13-11, 5-3) will be at Princeton (5-3) on Friday night and Penn (3-5) on Saturday. Both games are the second games of double-headers with the women's games being played first.
The first game on Friday is scheduled for 5:30 pm and the men's game is set for 8 pm. On Saturday, the women's game is scheduled for 4:30 pm and the men's game is planned for 7:00 pm.
At KenPom, the Big Red are 70-63 underdogs against Princeton and 75-66 underdogs against Penn. I think KenPom only had them as the favorite against Columbia at home, over the first 8 games, so they will look to continue upsetting those predictions.
A win against Princeton would tie the season series (first game was a 70-61 home loss), while a win against Penn would give them a sweep (first game was a 80-71 home win). The sweep against Penn would be huge for Tournament tiebreakers.
Right now, the Yale Undergraduate Sports Analytics Group has them at #4 with a 49.6% chance of making the Ivy Tournament.
