Vermont at Harvard

Outside of the BCS Conference teams in New England, these two programs have probably been the best in recent years. Tommy Amaker has changed the expectations at Harvard, but after a record 26-win season, his roster doesn't look the same as four of the top five players have moved on. The Crimson have started 2-2 and although Amaker has five freshmen in the fold that will need to contribute, it is going to take some time to get this team on a winning track. John Becker has a lot of talent and is expected to win the American East. His Catamounts team won an NCAA Tournament game for just the second time in school history a year ago, and remains a force to be dealt with this season. Vermont is off to a 3-1 start with the only loss coming at UConn. Harvard has a reputation from the last couple years, but this team is definitely a step or two behind those teams. Take the points and Vermont.
