Premium Pick

Cornell prefers to run but faces a defensive Princeton squad. Cornell is 2-5 on the road and plays its third road game in the last four contests. They come off an 83-82 home loss to Brown as an 8-point favorite. The defense is last in the Ivy League in points surrendered (77.2 per game) and second-to-last in shooting allowed. Princeton is tied with Yale as the only 3-0 team in the Ivy. Princeton is third in the league in points given up (71.7 per game) and in shooting allowed (.439). The offense is second from 3-point land (.375) anchored by junior guard Xaivian Lee (17.1 ppg, 5.8 rpg, 5.6 apg). They lead the Ivy League in turnover margin (+2.17). They're playing the second game of a four-game homestand and are on a 10-5 run UNDER the total this season, as well as 20-11-1 UNDER going back to last year. Princeton is on a 44-6 run at home (88.0 winning percentage), with the wagering value on the home team to win a defensive duel. Play Princeton on the moneyline + UNDER the total.
