In Deo Speramus

Opens Princeton -4 1/2 O/U 138 1/2.

Pro Deo Ludimus

This is a very dangerous game. It is a must win for Brown and at home. They must win this or Yale the last game of the year to get back to Brown in my analysis.

Cannot argue with you. Not sure how much extended time the starters spend on the court, given the Yale game tomorrow.

I would think Henderson will prioritize beating Brown
on Friday, regardless of how many minutes the key
guys have to play. Beating Yale would be great, but
staying on track for the ILT requires at least one win.

I have to think Princeton’s only sitting the starters if they get up big or down big.

“I would think Henderson will prioritize beating Brown on Friday”

Thanks for answering my question.

Lot of uncalled fouls against the Bruins. Tigers should recalibrate how they are playing defense and also hit the boards harder.

Three terrible turnovers by the Tigers early. Oooof.

Brown is just playing harder, which makes sense since they’re in danger of missing the ILT.

At least we know this team enjoys coming back from a big deficit.

Here we go again. Down 9 at the under 12 timeout.

We’d be really cooked if Lilly was hitting.

Nice 7-0 run by the Tigers pulls to within 2. Phew

Abdullahi took his first three! Missed it but closer than I thought it’d be.

Mitch seems to be using this game as “ILT practice.” Trying to get Happy going early. Resting Lee and Pierce at the same time to get Davis going.

Yale roasting Penn early, even though Poulakidas is 0-6.

What is it like to have a team that plays like they should against inferior competition?

sigh

Tigers stinking it up again. Down 11. SIX turnovers. Xaivian is non-existant.

Make that 7 turnovers. 0 for Brown.

Maybe Xaivian really IS coming back next season. Because they seem to have given up on this season.

Haven’t scored in 4 minutes!

This is an absolute bloodletting. Down 15. Only good thing about this game is that Xaivian and Cade are destroying any NBA/NIL value they have. Both are non-factors with 5 points between the two of them on 4 shots.

Xaivian with an absolutely atrocious turnover and Brown runs it back for an uncontested layup and an 18 point lead. Wow!

Now THAT was the worst half of the season. Down 18. Xaivian has 2 points on 2 shots.

Cornell down 17 at the half to Harvard and Yale only up 5 over Penn.
