YTD: 3-0 (one good win, one lucky win and one backdoor cover)
PICK: TOTAL OVER 132
This is a seasoned Yale team that won't fall apart on the road; they return 4 starters from last years team which finished 2nd in the Ivy and they were ahead at the half a few days ago at #22 DePaul. They are good ball handlers and have some good shooters.
UD has their usual decent team, and as usual they play much tougher at home than on the road. After a couple of high scoring home wins they couldn't hit a basket at SMU and lost in their last game. It wasn't that SMU was playing that great, Dayton had a lot of good looks but just couldn't hit. I think they'll get their shot back tonite at home.
Brown @ Northwestern
Very similar teams. Brown's coach Robinson just came from Northwestern and both teams play the Princeton O which results in very low scoring games. Both teams have had big upsets over their local rival this season. Brown beat Providence in their last game and Northwestern shocked DePaul. This will be an ugly game, I wouldn't recommend watching it or betting on it.
Good luck.
