Cornell at Missouri

Last year everyone was high on this Cornell team that broke the Ivy string of Princeton and Penn winning seemingly every year. They proceeded to get hammered by 24 at the hands of Stanford. How many times do we see a team have a big year, get bounced in the NCAA Tournament, then come back with much of the same cast, and use the experience and maturity to win or play close? The role has changed, as this year it is the Missouri Tigers that have no tourney experience from a year ago and that will cost them in this one. The Tigers also aren’t carrying much weight as a chunky favorite where they are 3-9 ATS in their last 12. Cornell hangs around and gets the call. I also like this one to go UNDER the total as Missouri is 4-0 at neutral-site games last four, and Cornell has played their last five under the total.
