Pennsylvania Quakers at Princeton Tigers Prediction
By no means are we going to suggest that the Quakers will pull off the upset and stun the Ivy League and college basketball world, while they are at it. However, stranger things have happened. On neutral courts this conference tournament season, we have seen #1 Oakland, #2 Valparaiso, #1 South Dakota #1 Monmouth and #1 Belmont all go down against lower seed opponents that were not expected to be competitive in these various contests. Princeton is one of the mid-major teams that many have reveled in as they have been absolutely dominant after getting off to a 4-6 start. The Tigers are expected to win the Ivy League and do so with authority. Given their dominance of this league and the fact they are the top seed, the Tigers may actually be spotting inflated points and the number will likely to continue to rise with the public smothering Princeton with action. The fact remains UPenn went 6-2 down the backstretch to earn this #4 seed and in doing so defeated the #2 and #3 seeds in this tournament (Harvard and Yale). UPenn knows if they can pull off the miracle that they have a solid chance of going to the Big Dance and given the fact this boils down to this one game, anything is possible. Take the points.
Free Pick:
Take Pennsylvania +6.5
