Princeton -6 O/U 157.5
Line tells me the little guy is sitting this one out.
If so, favor the under here.

Cornell under Earl has always been a tricky opponent for the Tigers even with some of his less talented teams, so I expect a close one throughout again tonight. Cornell's depth could help them out on night 2 of a back to back, especially with Jaelin potentially out on the Princeton side.
Dickson will be another tough guard with his size, and Cornell surrounds him with so many shooters.
If no Jaelin my guess would be Allocco may get the start, but still keeping my fingers crossed that Jaelin's alright

The biggest issue, to me, is if Princeton has the ball handlers without Jaelin to handle the Cornell pressure. They play with pace and attack on defense more than I can remember an Ivy team in recent history. They shot 34 three's last night at the Palestra as well.
Very different Cornell team and an intriguing matchup.

I anticipate a lot of TOs without Jaelin. Hopefully, we'll hit enough 3s to make up the difference. Only went 6-21 from deep last night - looking for Langborg, Wright and Friberg to even things out.

So far, I think more turnovers than shots for the Tigers. Ugh. But their half-court D has been surprisingly good, so only down 10-4. Also Cornell has four fouls to PU's zero.

Offense is a total mess with no rhythm. Can't even get off a shot with 5 TOs in the first 8 minutes... pretty much going as expected.

Starting to hit straight-line drives for buckets, with a couple of treys tossed in. Looking a bit worse on closeouts on the other end, though.

Offense getting a little bit better with some nice plays by Friberg, including a nifty split of a trap into a layup that I don't think I've ever seen from him.
Cornell getting some action on the offensive glass to keep their offense going though

23-29 with 3:41 left in the half. Have lost count of the number of Tiger turnovers where they just stepped out of bounds.

Tosan looks gassed from last night. Missing all the shots at the rim he usually makes.

Endless TOs. We're on pace for 20+. We're lucky this isn't a blowout already.

Another brutal first half. Sloppy passing. Missed free throws. Just ugly.

I spoke too soon. We're getting wrecked now. Will we have more FGs or TOs tonight?
Thank heavens for the Ivy Tourney... if we make it.

Surprising in that the Tigers were OK defensively, for the most part, but terrible on offense. Missing Llewellyn, obviously, but some of the turnovers were ridiculous. And not enough off the ball movement to give the ball handler outlet options. It shouldn't require a call after a timeout to get someone to go hard backdoor.

That was miserable. Tigers look gassed. Red look hungry. No Jaelin, 2 point total from Tosan and Wright. Don’t know how Tigers win without those three.

I hope the guys come out and at least show some fire in the second half. I didn't expect them to win without Jaelin, but losing this badly to a team that's also missing their leading scorer (Jones) is not a good look.

Tons of missed layups to start the second half, plus another turnover, and now Cornell is getting some good looks from three.
