Dartmouth vs Pennsylvania Prediction

Pennsylvania has played its best ball at home this season and is a profitable 14-9 ATS on the season. However, this is a lot of points to throw at a Dartmouth team that has 6 road wins. It’s also a revenge spot after Dartmouth lost to Penn last month. Dartmouth is coming off a strong road upset over Columbia. These are two second-tier teams in the Ivy, so a big number isn’t where I’m trying to be. The Big Green can hang around in this spot. Give me the points.
