Pick

Both of these teams are tied for first place in the Ivy League standings, but Penn has been red hot lately. Penn has won eight games in a row and has scored 80+ points in four of their last five games. Princeton has alternated wins and losses over their last five games, losing to Yale and Dartmouth. Princeton won the first meeting between these teams by a score of 72-60. I like the Tigers at home here.
