Maybe you shouldn't be looking ahead SEVEN games. Congrats, you broke your 4 games losing streak to keep pace with Dartmouth. Making predictions that far in advance seems a little silly. You'd better hope the team doesn't do the same, or you might be entering that game trying to avoid a 10 loss season.

Don't get too nervous, you managed to win in overtime at the Palestra but I'm sure you'll be able to hang onto your lead in spite of the loss at Jadwin.

Who's nervous? We're the ones with a THREE game lead half way through the season. That would even be a big lead for you guys to blow (18-1...21-3/35-9....20-0)...
You're talking a lot of smack for a fan of a last place team.

I've conceded the Ivy title. At least unless you really blow it. You just won't win in Jadwin.

I'm just curious as to why you're so sure of this Captain Moral Victory.

Penn and Princeton generally (at least the last few years) have played better away in this rivalry, for whatever reason. I'm thinking Penn will walk out of Jadwin having just finished an undefeated season.

I made a prediction based on the fact that Princeton should have won at the Palestra and ended up losing a close game in overtime. I think Penn has peaked and Princeton will ultimately regroup and significantly improve as the year goes on. Could I be wrong? Of course. But I doubt it. Just mark it down. We'll see if I'm right or not. As a mere fan, I would be reticent to be so arrogant this early in the season if I were you though.

I'm not being arrogant. But I'm also not making predictions 3 weeks ahead of time that don't really have much basis. By no means am I convinced that Penn will win out or win at Jadwin.
It's sort of like me predicting that Penn wins its first NCAA game at this point in the year.

In case you weren't sure, a prediction is about the future.

So why don't you go ahead and predict the entire league schedule for next season and every season until 2010?

Well come on, cut T71 a break. He's not going to pick future years, I've already done that, and he criticized me for it.

I don't understand what the fuss is all about. Princeton loses 3 in a row and snaps their losing streak against a team that has lost four in a row. Then based on this, T71 makes a prediction about a game against a team that is undefeated in the league about a game which may well be meaningless. I just don't see the point of the entire exercise.
