In response to Tiger84
With Yale holding serve at home against Cornell, there's still no true leader in the league. So far every Top 3 team playing at home has won against a fellow Top 3.
Since Sagarin ratings have been discontinued this year, the computerized rankings used in a three-way 12-2 tiebreaker would be NET, KenPom and BPI (ESPN). In which case, it would Princeton #1 and probably Yale #2 and Cornell #3. Needless to say, #1 seed is a big deal. Facing Harvard or Columbia (even at Levien) sounds a lot better than facing a Top 3.
There's still a lot of hoops to be played, but I never imagined it could come down to that level of tiebreaker. And next year could be more of the same with Princeton and Yale looking equally good, Harvard likely to improve a lot and Cornell capable of challenging again.
