Ivy League Week 6 (9) - 2013 edition

[bonarae]

First all-Ivy Saturday for this season.

Brown at Cornell - I can't explain Cornell... they absolutely have no defense despite Mathews around.
Yale at Penn
Princeton at Harvard - Harvard should be ranked given some of the bottom half of the national top 25 lost to unranked teams yesterday. Princeton is on a roll, and it may carry the momentum to this game...
Columbia at Dartmouth - if Dartmouth finds a way to lose, I don't know how to explain this year's team...

Brown
Yale -- just a hunch
Harvard -- in a squeaker

Brown
Yale - if Varga and Furman are healthy. Both left the game with injuries yesterday
Harvard - should have 20k+ for this one. Princeton fans are excited.
Dartmouth

[Go...gate]

Harvard will also remember Princeton's upset last year. Will be a good game.

Columbia at Dartmouth - if Dartmouth finds a way to lose, I don't know how to explain this year's team...

Short answer is injuries. We had six starters on the sidelines against Bucknell-mostly on offense. IF those guys come back, we romp on Saturday. If not, it's anyone's game.

As for the rest of the games...

Harvard (revenge)
Cornell (Brown has yet to play competitively in a league game)
Yele (Penn is also banged up with injuries)

How is Yale-Penn a pick. The game is at Penn, they are the defending champs, and Yale has lost two straight. Doesn't seem to make sense.

Maybe they know something about the injury situation for both teams that we don't. Penn's QB left the Columbia game on crutches...

In any event, that's a heck of an over/under for Harvard-Princeton. Looks like they are expecting a real track meet.

[Bogus Megapardus]

I'd take Columbia and the points. Just a hunch, and no offense to the Keggers (who will win the game in any event).

[ngineer]

Brown because I like brown
Princeton because they are on a roll.
Dartmouth because Columbia sucks.
Yale because Penn sucks more.

[DJOM]

Princeton because this is their year.

[Go Green]

Princeton because this is their year.

That's what Harvard thought about themselves last year.

Well, this weekend is Princeton's chance to prove it.
