Offense vs. defense - which will prevail? Princeton is a low scoring team but that style of play can catch up with them. They have put up 35, 41, 35 and 48 in their last four games. They have lost five straight games SU and ATS. This season, after scoring 60 or less for three straight games, they are 2-8 ATS. Those five losses were on the road and they do return home here. But ten points is too much. Harvard, in Ivy play hasn't laid more than 3.5 so far. Their last double-digit spread game was against Providence on December 22nd when they got 18.5 and covered. This season vs. common Ivy opponents, Harvard has fared better posting a 3-2 SU and 2-2 ATS mark compared to Princeton's 1-4 SU and 0-4 ATS record. Harvard is 5-4 on the road this season. Their biggest weakness is defense or lack thereof but tonight they face a team that averages just 50 ppg (43.5 in conference games). We look for Harvard to keep this one closer than 10.
