The Ivy League has gotten Conference play underway, and Cornell will hit the road to take on Penn. Pennsylvania was once an Ivy League power, but the Quakers are just 4-10 on the season. The offense has not been good, as they average just 64ppg on the season, and the shooting is a big reason. The Quakers are shooting 39% of the season and dropping 30% of their threes. Combine those numbers with a slow pace, as they are only attempting 57 shots per game, and this total looks too high. Cornell is 9-5 and shoots the ball very well, but can they deliver their average of 87ppg in a contest that will see a much slower pace than they prefer? Even if they do, Penn has to get to 70, and I don't see it. I like playing this one UNDER the total.
