Cornell

The game is not on the board. Not unusual given the really short turn around time.
Might appear as an extra close to the 2:00 PM tip off.
The Tigers are 1-8-1 in their last 10 ATS.

any news on Abdulahi?

Silly me, they play on the Sabbath.

Considering Pierce’s banged-up state, I’m grateful for the extra day of rest.

And with a less crowded Sunday slate, the teams get to play on ESPN U.

Opened Cornell -2 1/2. Quickly jumped to -4 1/2.
O/U 155

Big game in a few minutes. Are the Tigers contenders for an ILT championship? Every team in the league is beatable but at this point in the season, can the Tigers stack up against any of the top teams?

Honestly, I won’t be distraught with a loss. Dartmouth is on fire and Cornell has been as tough a matchup as Yale the past two seasons. Playing in the #2/#3 game isn’t much of a relief.

Almost certainly have to beat Yale anyway - whether it’s on Saturday or Sunday doesn’t really matter.

Looks like our guys don’t mind losing either. Trailing 10-0 already.

Pierce is 0-3 with a TO (really 2 with shotblock violation).

The Tigers have to show up today. Down 10-0 quickly. Same as it ever was.

What the hell was X doing there? He missed a wide open layup!!!

They’re mentally rattled. This is why they should get Lee going out of the gate.

Instead, Mitch always makes the same mistake. Trying to get other guys going first and then wondering why they’re always trailing big early.

Not sure I see it that way tonight, GK. Lee couldn’t get anything going. The one time he shook his guy and made it to the hoop for an uncontested layup he decided not to lay it off the backboard for some reason and blew it. I think X is as rattled as the rest of the team.

As long as Byriel is playing, we don’t have a chance. Same for Scott. What about Huggins. Same old coaching errors. He doesn’t even know is own players

I did not have Jack Scott checking into the game early on my bingo card. He made a solid move to free himself in close then missed the shot short at close range.

Oh, I wasn’t omitting Lee from being rattled. They got into a big hole AGAIN and it’s clear they’ve lost their confidence. Playing Jack Scott at all is wanting to lose. Statistically, he’s been one of the worst players in D-I this season according to Torvik.

Nothing like technical issues to make a bad game worse.

Cade lit it up from the line against Columbia but just missed 2. uggh

Signs of life but for Pete’s sake you gotta make a wide open 3.

No rim protection.

Not going to win any games when you shoot 28% and the opponent shoots 64%. Princeton has gone from a great shooting team to one that can’t hit wide open shots.
