Brown Bears at Dartmouth Big Green Prediction
At first glance this looks like two bottom feeding teams battling it out and while their records do suggest that their play doesn't. Brown is 2-3 on the road beating 7-18 Cornell and 11-12 Penn and on the other side of the decision they lost by 5 to Columbus, by 10 to Yale and 29 to Princeton. Dartmouth won their earlier match on the road against Brown 77-74 and should be able to repeat that feat tonight. The Big Green have played reasonably well at home in recent games, splitting their last four going 3-1 ATS. One of the losses came against the Ivy League leader Princeton by 5 in a game that they had the laed in deep into the second half.
Free Pick:
Take The Dartmouth Big Green -1.5
