OK, first the lines since we all know how reliable they are:
Penn +1 (!) Vegas must think Harvard will be flat
Columbia +6.5 Seems about right to me
Cornell +3 should be 5 or 6 after last night
Dartmouth +19 (!) PU can't afford to let this stay close

I am cautiously optimistic about this game. I also think Yale will not lie down for Columbia so our guys need to treat this and win and you're in. It's at home, should be a decent crowd, it's senior night (look for Matt to come up big, he had a nice game last night that went largely unnoticed) and the program alums will be back in force for the alumni game and reception.

See this link for details and participants.

Penn is now -1. And Dartmouth is down to 17.5. If they truly think they have a shot, that is a lot of points to lay for a Princeton team that already clinched. Yale line moved more towards them.

Matt Howard off to the hot Senior Night start with 7 of the first 9 for at the under 15:00 media timeout. Quakers 9-6.

Columbia 14-5 over Yale early.

Cornell up 13 on Brown with 12:00 left.

Princeton up 38 on DC. Nice effort Green.

Rare early Matt McDonald sighting.

And we get consecutive blown layups by Matts as Howard and he both fail.

Harvard goes 1-3-1 and Penn takes 20 seconds to begin running any kind of coherent zone offense.

And then Max commits an offensive foul on an inbound.

Yeesh.

I can only see stats from plane, but what I see is no one beside Matt Howard being able to hit a shot.

I think AJ needs the summer break...this team has so much more athleticism I don't know where to begin.

Brodeur looks lost out there.

Betley hit a heave-like 3 from the top of the key and Jones a 3 from the wing, but not much else.

Howard blows a tip, blows a second o-board attempt, and then Brodeur has his second consecutive butter fingers play. A.J. looks totally out of it so far.

Harvard on 10-0 run to take the lead.

Howard finally ends what became a 12-0 run with a floater in the lane.

Nice hero block by Howard on Aiken at the end of the half to keep the deficit to a very-manageable 4 points.

Down 4, Goodman penetrates and makes the worst kick out pass in history to create a turnover. Fortunately Howard bails him out with a big block from behind in transition on Aiken, and Harvard can't score in the final 14 seconds. 35-31 at the break.

Someone not named Howard has to find a way to hit some shots in the second half.

Harvard turned it over 2x. If we don't get 8+ in the second half we aren't going to win. They are too good when they don't turn it over.

Let's not kid ourselves. After the run to fight back this season anything less than 4, after 3 chances to win one game, would be a major failure.

Somebody forgot to tell Brodeur that he's hit the wall. He looks like a man possessed. Foreman and Howard driving well and scoring.

These officials are not having a good game. They need to learn the rules for loose balls. Each one has gone against us. Big third foul on Darnell.

So we take a lead going inside and now we just chuck up 3s. Makes sense.
