Ivy League Week 2 2016

[bonarae]

My record for last week and this season: 5-3

Dartmouth upsetting UNH was my second most significant win in Week 3 (FCS) 2016.

My picks:
Princeton at Lehigh
Penn at Fordham
Dartmouth at Holy Cross - UNH defense got the most out of the Cross in their game. But that defense faltered against the Big Green.
Columbia at Georgetown - tell me something positive about the Hoyas in football. xconfusedx
Harvard at Brown
Yale at Cornell

Columbia at Georgetown - tell me something positive about the Hoyas in football. xconfusedx


They're the only Eastern opponent that still wants to play by the Ivy rules.

They're 2-0.

I was 6-2 in my predictions last week, but I also picked Yale. After Yale's horrendous week one performance I don't know what to think anymore, but here it goes:

Princeton
Fordham
Dartmouth
Columbia
Harvard
Yale (will the real Yale football team please stand up)

[ngineer]

Princeton-Lehigh could be a barn-burner. Mountain Hawks O on fire. 45-27
Penn reads a "Bronx Tale" and weeps.
Big green give big thrashing to 'saders
Hoyas my not be real, but they have stones. Move to 3-0.
Haaavaaard in a cake walk, or making a hasty pudding.
Yale must be lock in this one regardless of last week.

Week 4 Sportsbook:

Princeton (pk) at Lehigh o/u 66

Fordham (-4) vs Penn o/u 77

Dartmouth (-8) at Holy Cross o/u 52

Harvard (-16) at Brown o/u 61

Georgetown (-1½) vs Columbia o/u 34

Bucknell (-1) vs VMI o/u 43

Yale (-9½) at Cornell o/u 50

Richmond (-16) vs Colgate o/u 54

Villanova (-20) at Lafayette o/u 37

[Go Green]

Yale (-9½) at Cornell o/u 50


Would be curious to hear the reasoning behind this spread. Yale looked awful last week, and Cornell looked halfway decent.

History

[Go...gate]

They're the only Eastern opponent that still wants to play by the Ivy rules.

But the Ivies set aside "slots" for athletes in the admissions. I get the impression that Georgetown does not do this.

Since GU now announces recruits in time with the rest of PL, I would think that HC does get slots now.

All final scores:
Lehigh 42, Princeton 28
Fordham 31, Penn 17
Dartmouth 35, Holy Cross 10 - some of you picked the wrong team xrulesx
Harvard 32, Brown 22
Georgetown 17, Columbia 14 - I got the right team?
Cornell 27, Yale 13 - xoopsx The Big Red are back to being relevant again.

Princeton needs to find a defense, or else another .500 season looks likely.

Wow. What's up with the Eli? 13 points in two straight games.

QB problems. Wide receiver injuries and problems. And a defense that can't stop anyone which puts more pressure on a struggling offense.
