If we fall, may Bruno take it all!

I know I'm not supposed to say things like this, but I'm not worried about Brown tomorrow. Sure, anyone can lose in a 4-team tournament, but Brown struggled 2/3 of the year for a reason, even in their hot streak they've had some bad stretches, and underdogs have done really poorly in this event.

Coming in with 6 game win streak including wins over both Cornell and Yale? Challenged Tigers in both previous games? I’m worried.

Less than 12 hours to tip off and this thread needs to be at the top, not the other one with wild speculation. The Tigers come off a break week and I assume they will be locked in tomorrow. I watched a little of ESPN+s Ivy Madness hoopla and our guys seemed relaxed and rested in their interviews, with Cade saying the team is excited to be playing in Levien, which they seem to think is a shooter’s gym. Go Tigers!

We Pacific zone folks are not loving the early start. Blake Peters awake though!

3 TOs already. Must be more efficient.

Also not nuts about letting Brown alone defensively on the perimeter. I get the need for help inside, but Brown is vulnerable to ball pressure.

Some bad decision-making early, bad passes and too quick shots. But otherwise pretty good.
I expect this game to be close at halftime (maybe even trailing) and then hopefully pull away in the 2nd half.

At least no second-chance points allowed. But Brown is shooting well. Touch block call on Pierce.

These TOs are terrible. Way too sloppy/casual.
Now Pierce has 2 fouls - playing with fire early.

Princeton is having to work a lot harder for its shots than Brown so far. Two starters on the bench right now.

Officials not giving Pierce much of a break. Two bad calls.

Really don't like this reliance on 3pta.

So far, my dreaded nightmare. Brown scoring easily. Princeton fouling and Pierce out with 2 fouls. Brown offense vastly improved. They could win it all.

Brown is making a lot of tough shots - give them credit. But we came out too soft, relying on hot 3pt shooting.
I keep saying this every game and every game (except Penn) it turns out to be true. Early 3s falling = fool's gold.

Down eight with 5:49 in H1. No need to panic, but give me some 1-3-1 please.
