Columbia is struggling having lost 5 straight now (4-7 ATS) including home games to Dartmouth, the Ivy’s worst team by double digits. They also record losses at home against Harvard and Cornell, teams which Penn handled easily including Cornell at Penn in which they defeated them by 40 points. This team has lost in double digits at home to teams that Penn has defeated others by nearly or over 20 points. I expect a similar game to the one in Harvard in which Penn won in double digits whereas this game they should win by 16-20 points. Penn is simply a covering machine and keep in mind this: Columbia got blown out by Cornell – who is not as good as Penn although one of the best playing teams in the Ivy right now next to Penn – by over 20 points. Penn could do much the same if not better. I beleive Penn is not even an Ivy League type team and should be in the Big East with the big boys considering how well they played St. Joseph's, La Salle (who beat Xavier outright on the road). Two stars on Penn.
