The line has opened up at Yale -1.5, but I think Pennsylvania is the better team by far and feel the line should be Penn - 4 or 5. Now also looking at vegasinsider 81% of the public is already on Yale.
Not sure if I'm missing something or not here, but this is a potential huge play for me with Pennsylvania. If anyone knows more and could let me know on it, it'd be greatly appreciated

Anyone know much about these two teams?

yale isnt garbage but they have not played the tuff kind of schedule penn has played...penn is a very good basketball team and hold their own as well on the road as a home...they have a winning record(5-4) on the road and although they are only 11-9 for the season , they are a very respectable 11-5 ats, having won four in a row now with two of those wins on the road...they have played some pretty tuff teams losing to temple by 8 , villanova by 6, ucla by 4 and davidson by 5,,.....with a few more breaks easily could be 13-7 instead of 11-9.....they have benefited from a tuff schedule and are battle tested.....i will take the points and watch them beat yale friday night as i think they will win this outright!

6-1 ATS on the road. With the one loss being at Duke.

Yeah I think the misconception the public is having here is seeing that Yale is 3-1 in conference play, however the 3 teams they've beat are the 2 worst teams in the conference in Brown and Dartmouth who have a combined record of 11-30 this year. I'm extremely liking this Penn play, especially since they've had good success in winning 7 of the past 9 games vs Yale, they swept the series with them last year.....it's lining up to be a big play for me

penn has excellent guards and is very disciplined ...they seem to play very well against competition in their league because of this discipline and always seem to play the toughest non conference schedule in their conference so they are ready when league play starts...they played an excellent game againt princeton last week beating them by 15, and princeton was suppose to challenge harvard for the title this year because they had all their starters back....and how about that penn win over st.joes 84-80 they week before that!.....yale is nowhere near the competiion penn has played this year...i am taking penn +2 and am also playing penn ml friday...like i said, i feel they are the better team and will win this one outright even if it is on the road....penn excells on the road.

I am on Yale. Penn. has had the more difficult schedule I will admit. But besides I game in November Yale has beaten everyone they should have beat. 4 out of their 5 loses were quality opponents and only one home loss this season to Harvard who is a very good team that could win a game or 2 in the March Tourney....I just think this is a bad match -up for Penn. IF Penn had any paint presence at all and could pull down a rebound here or there they would be right up there with Harvard, while Yale has a good inside game and can rebound with anyone. This game should be a good test for both squads.

Mangano vs. Rosen/Bernardini is easily the most fascinating matchup of the night.
Penn has no answers for Mangano and Yale will have difficulty with Rosen and Bernardini.
Should be a great game.
Disagree with the Mangano angle - Penn has 6 of their top 8 contributors (via Kenpom) that are 6'6" or taller and can throw guys at Mangano in waves. Most of the crappy teams that have been on Yale's schedule didn't have the height to matchup - that isn't the case tonight

Seen Penn a few times.
Some of the frontcourt guys are tall, but outside of Belcore, they're slight of frame. Brooks is an explosive athlete but needs to add bulk. Dougherty looks like he has potential and probably can hold his own at times. Kukoc is solely a perimeter player/shooter. Never seen Howlett play.
Hey, at least one of us will win.

Man this game sucked, Bernadini really didn't come to play today and it cost Penn the cover and win. I don't think they scored a basket the final 3 minutes of the game
