CORNELL (1-1) AT COLGATE (1-2)
Which is less desirable? A Big Red squad that just got waxed by the, at-best, fourth-best school in the Ivies, or a Raiders team that turned the ball over four times in a loss to Dartmouth.
While it’s hard to respect a team that lost to the Big Green, Colgate has some talented players, and it’s entirely possible that Cornell could go into the tank after being humiliated in New Haven.
The Raiders take this one by 14.
HOLY CROSS (2-2) AT YALE (1-1)
Anyone with a lead on which Bulldogs squad will show up to the Yale Bowl on Saturday, let me know. Will it be the one that folded in San Diego, or the one that destroyed everyone’s darkest Ivy darkhorse Cornell? Picking Yale is always a frightening experience, so take the Crusaders on the road by three.
