In some ways, this is the most linear Ivy matchup, as it is fairly clear (I think) who guards who for Penn. I assume Smith guards Swain, which should be key. Williams might have a tough time with Gabbidon.
Going the other way, I’m not as certain of how Yale generally defends, but I would guess Gabiddon guards Dingle. Weirdly, this could be a good matchup for Penn in the sense that Yale may not gameplan for Dingle the way some others have, because they may think they have a guy who can stay with him (Brown may have thought something similar).
I do think Yale is vulnerable to size. So I suspect Spinoso gets a shot at some point. I am also curious to see whether Mosh can effectively get into his bag of tricks against Kelly. This is a weird team for Jones. For like 20 years he stuck to playing 2 bigs even as nearly everyone else changed it up. And now suddenly he plays all guards and wings.
