In response to penn nation
So much for the "2 bid Ivy" talk by a few on this board (not on the Brown board, though). Those hopes are now gone forever.
I don't know about that. The only real hope for a 2-bid Ivy was for a team to have 0-1 losses going into the ILT final and then losing a close one. And a weaker Ivy makes that even more possible.
It's totally unfair but no one outside the Ivy thinks a 12-2 record against a strong Ivy field is better than 14-0 against a weak Ivy field. The SOS metrics will take a hit, but again, going undefeated instead of losing 2-3 games would make up a lot of that.
This past Princeton team only lost 1 game in non-conf. It's conceivable the 2024-25 Tigers might do the same (or better) against a similar schedule, provided Lee withdraws from the draft as he intends to do.
