Penn minus 7 where I looked. Seems high given the Betley injury. I'm tempted to put some money on Brown but that might be bad juju.
Btw, Princeton getting 4 at home.
Big weekend for sure.

Kenpom has Penn -8. Gamble at your own risk.

I have never nor will I ever bet on Ivy anything. But the line is telling me that Vegas thinks Penn is a much better team than Brown. It is trying to draw in bets on Brown.
We'll see at 7

Anderson, Choh and Hunsaker are the primary offensive threats for the Bears.
Goodman on Anderson is a good defensive matchup for us. I think Dingle on Hunsaker works. Choh I think we have to guard with some combination of AJ, Simmons (who played well defensively against Brown at home last season) and Eddie Scott. I don't want to see Martz trying to guard him.

The lines always tell you something....
In this case, as is always the case with Ivy lines, it is formula-driven. In fact, it is a little low if one assumes a 3 pt. HCA.
Ivy Friday lines tend to move a bit off the open since people actually play them for lack of other games to play. Line movement means more. If I had to bet this thing, I'd take the 7 just because they matchup pretty well with us, go 9-deep with experienced players, and Martin will have them ready for SD's stuff as always.
I agree betting these games is a losing prop, but I like to dabble in the over/unders for entertainment. At 144 this feels like an over.
That said, Penn had better win this one because I don't like their chances in Providence despite the recent history up there.

That line is talking to me. It's tell me to shut my computer off and go home and enjoy the weekend. I suggest we all do the same at the earliest possible opportunity.

Bruno is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vists to the Palestra with an avg spread cover of 9.1 pts. The one ATS loss was last year when they were getting +6.5 and lost 58-51.

I did put $5 on Brown to cover the spread earlier--should have waited
cause its now 7 and 1/2. Also put $5 on Princeton getting 4 points.
I expect top be rich soon.

Seriously. Two bad shot attempts and a charging foul?
Why?

Is it just me or is the main play of the Brown offense the moving screen? Seems like their go to move and it has not been called yet.

Yeah, I've seen at least three that should have been called already.

About the same number as their uncalled moving screens.
Dingle is off to a nice start.
