Columbia at Pennsylvania

The Columbia Lions have to feel disappointed in their overall 13-13 record and sub-.500 League mark where they are just 5-7. They extended the nation's best team on the road, putting a major scare into Kentucky, and played very well on the road vs. defending National Champion UConn. They certainly had no problem against Penn in the first meeting in a blowout 27-point win. Penn has fallen from graces in the Ivy, and currently sits at the bottom. They are a 2-point wins vs. Cornell from being 0-9 in their last nine conference games. The Quakers have also given up 70+ in four of their last seven against league opponents, and Columbia hit them for 83 in the first meeting. The Lions can shoot the ball well, and like the three-pointer, and overall their last 10 games have produced eight that have gone over the total, and I think they get plenty here vs. a helpless Penn team. The Quakers have been highly inconsistent and vulnerable after a spread win, following at 8-20-1 ATS in their last 29 after recording one. Columbia has an 8-2 mark to the OVER in their last 10 in league play, and following a spread loss they have topped the total five straight times. Play on Columbia and the OVER in this one.
