thoughts on princeton vs. Cornell

[gracielou]

Princeton on the road has lost to Okla x3, Minn x4, Duke x18, and Rutgers x2. All respected loses.
Wins on the road Yale, Brown, Fresno St.

both Princeton and Cornell beat Brown on the road by 15.

Cornell has only beat the basement teams in the Ivy, so a 5-1 in league is pretty deceiving. They haven't played Yale, Penn and Princeton.

Is it time for a changing of the guard, I doubt it.

do yourself a favor and take Princeton, until Cornell proves they can beat a good team stick with the best.

oh yea, Cornell did beat Lehigh at home! wow!

Cornell played Yale in their last game on 2-7, and they lost 67-48 in that one according to the info I got.

thanks captain i missed that one.

that helps my play even more.

i think i'm going to stick to princeton until i se3e a changing of the guard.

i know you mentioned cornell will be up for this one, i don't see it being any different than usual.
actually i think princeton knowing they have to come in to cornell tonight and play well to win works in princetons favor.

not trying to change your mind at all, and by all means don't ever change your pick because of someone else. you know as well as i do it cost you more money in the long run.

maybe it will be a push.

good luck tonight

No dont worry about me changing my plays. When I post my plays, I have pulled the trigger already. I dont ever want to be questioning myself after I did the work. LOL. Anyways, for me I didnt use the Yale lost so much as a consideration , because it was a their 6th consecutive road game for them, and the day after they had an high scoring affair with Brown. They had to be worn out, and it reflected as their two leading scorers who also are the Conf leading scorers had a bad day. Toppert who is second in the Conf in scoring had only 3pts and Barnes who leads the Conf in scoring only had I think 14 pts , these were way below their averages. Princeton is good at stalling on Offense , but not in scoring. They only have one player who averages in the double digits per a game. I have a hard time going with a team that is playing another team with Revenge on their minds, the best scoring offense , with more than one Conf leading scorers, and who can light it up from downtown. But hey that is just me. Good luck with your play , Aloha CC.

Gracie I watched that whole Penn game, Princeton may get beat by a lot in this game. They will definately not win the ivy league, trust me!

 

[gracielou]

thanks for all the stats guys. much appreciated.

princeton just destroyed cornell last year, wondering why. did prince lose some players or what.

i know they won't win the ivy, that is penns to win. just not to sold on cornell.

sounds like i'm against the public tonight, most of the time that is a good thing.

lol

Hey, what do you guys think about the over/under @ 123?

Cornell like to run, princeton likes slow half court. Seems like the home team normally dictates tempo, if you take the totals that the two teams have been putting up for the past 10 games you would get 130. How about that over?????

 

[gracielou]

past post time

but

Princeton 61 - cornell 56

 

[GoUH]

Sorry about that late post. Got the over, but it wasn't easy. Tough day today.

 

[gracielou]

glad you got the win, i usually don't bet over/unders usually juice out.

such as tnight
over in west carolina lost
over in manhatten looks like a win still need one point

 

[Co-Captain]

Congrats on your win with Princeton. Your welcome for the info. That is what this place is about, eventhough we were on opposite sides, it shouldnt stop anyone from helping and sharing info and knowledge with another person. Hey we are in this against the Man , not eachother and so it doesnt matter what side we are on. The battle is not with us. What goes around, comes around I say. Together we all can win , regardless of who we are on. Congrats, hit the Man again tomorrow. Gl and Aloha CC.

 

[gracielou]

thanks again captain. sorry it didn't work out for you.

talk to you guys on sunday,

posting sat plays in a minute.

good luck to all
