I’m excited for a P-P battle for (at least a share of) the title. If the Tigers play loose on offense and hard-nosed defense like they did for most of the Yale and Harvard games, they should have a solid chance. Go Tigers!

Allocco got his pocket picked by Dingle and it's been all Penn ever since. At least we don't have to worry about blowing another big lead! This'll have to be a comeback effort.
Penn playing much harder than we are. We're still making unfocused TOs like it's a preseason scrimmage.

On the wrong side of 42-25 at the half.
We're getting embarrassed in our house and no one seems to care. Settling for 3s that never go in (even if wide open). Dingle canning everything. Careless TOs and general apathy on both ends.
That Yale game broke our spirits. Just not the same squad ever since.

Well, FWIW, the good news is that we are 10 points closer than when we came back to win from a 27 point deficit (40-13) when Mitch was still an undergrad.

They can certainly come back from 17pts - they should have won vs Navy down 20 (Allocco fouled hard on a game-ending 3pt try).
I just don't like their body language/energy. They look so bummed and lacking in confidence since that Yale game. Even the Harvard win wasn't all that impressive.

Two minutes into the game, my wife said “why does Princeton look so relaxed. It’s a little concerning.” Penn just playing with more energy than we are. And when the three point shooting fails this miserably, we’re in big trouble. Dingle is the real deal.

Allocco on Dingle is proving zero resistance. Gotta put Tosan on him - need that length to bother him. Make Penn's bigs beat us.

Why are we still putting Allocco 1-on-1 with Dingle? He's getting burned every possession.

Can't get closer than 6. Tosan's making really bad decisions this game - Dingle cemented his POY campaign today.

We're going to OT! A chance to steal this.
Allocco came up big at the end - he realized he could make Dingle play defense as well.

I would just like to say here that I can't think of a team that is more demonstrative about calls more consistently than Penn. Ridiculous behavior.

WHAT A COMEBACK. YALE GHOSTS BEGONE!
Dingle finally ran out of gas and Lee, Allocco and Pierce came up clutch. Even with Tosan's graduation, I'm not ruling out an Ivy title next season.
Senior Day saved. Season saved. Sanity saved. Gonna rewatch this one later.

What a game! Great comeback, Great crowd! Great energy! The team has to be feeling great heading into the thingy after the real season now. Who knows, maybe watching Yale and Harvard make huge comebacks against them the last two weekends helped them visualize today's huge comeback. I'm looking forward to next weekend! Go Tigers!

I'm still hoping Penn takes care of Yale for us in the opening round. We can't beat Yale. Penn can't beat us.
It's like the '90s Yankee teams who couldn't beat Seattle... who couldn't beat Baltimore... who couldn't beat us.
