Saturday Ivy

[superbook]

YTD: 2-2

Cornell -2 (Olympic)

Cornell is back in session, they'll be a good turnout for this re-match of last week's Columbia win...Columbia won't shoot 10-13 from the arc two weeks in a row...

Jon-

Always good to see a post from you.....specifically an Ivy League write-up. Couldn't agree with you more......I like Cornell here, too. Thought the line would be -4.5.
Things are good up here in southern CT....cold though, as you know...3 degrees now. I have been battling flu-like symptoms for 2 weeks now. We had 9 teachers out sick the other day.......some parents keep sending their kids to school, even with high fevers, coughs, etc.
I probably got mine from tying all the kindergartener's and 1st-graders sneakers in gym class. I bend down and they cough on the back of my neck!
Can't wait for fell Ivy action to fill-up these boring Friday nights.

Stag -- the difference for Cornell this week is that they'll make the adjustment and guard better against the 3 (Columbia went into last week's game averaging a good 40% from the arc and they shot 77% on 10-13) and Lenny Collins will play a better game (1-10 fgs last week) and not try to force up so many shots...look for some better rebounding from a Big Red team that has some heighth but little width too...I've got 2 young kids at home...the secret is a Z-pak...ask your dr to prescribe Zithromax...I've had 2 colds so far and that stuff knocked it out in 24 hours...it's some new killer antibiotic and really works and fast...

Bryanz -- Brown looks good on paper...they've won L5 of 6 vs Yale and each of the last 3 years in New Haven...Yale coming in off a couple of bad losses while Brown is playing well...but I think Yale seniors step it up today (their weak bench will show itself on second nights once the Ivy season really starts) and Yale takes this one on their home court...7.5 is a great line...I see 4.5 at Oly...I'd take Brown +7.5 and Yale -4.5 for the 3 pt middle...
