Princeton will win in a landslide. Lock of the week. Book it.

Pick: Princeton 72, Dartmouth 58

COLUMBIA at YALE

Assuming they win tonight, the Bulldogs will be sitting at 3-2. Either Harvard or Princeton will be undefeated heading into tomorrow and have a good chance at sweeping the weekend. This means that if Yale wants to stay in the race, it must beat the Lions.

Columbia, too, needs at least a split this weekend. Between the Bears and the Bulldogs, it has a good shot, but the Lions are still an unproven squad. Their three league wins are against the two worst Ivies. Because this game will likely mean more to Yale and because the Elis are on their home court, I’ll take the Bulldogs.

Pick: Yale 67, Columbia 65

CORNELL at BROWN

The good news is that one team will get its first league win. The bad news is that this game is irrelevant. Only degenerate gamblers, players’ families, and delusional Cornell fans will follow this game. I think Brown wins the pillow fight.

Pick: Brown 70, Cornell 65

HARVARD at PENN

Tomorrow will be the first time I visit the Palestra, and I could not be more excited. I feel like a kid visiting Fenway. I’m definitely going to change my prof pic to a glamour shot with the Palestra’s plaque: “To win the game is great. To play the game is greater. But to love the game is the greatest of all.”

Harvard will settle for great if that means beating Penn. I’ll take the road trippers.

Pick: Harvard 72, Penn 66

PENN at PRINCETON

In another quirk in an already quirky league schedule, the Tigers and the Quakers face off on Tuesday night. These two traditional rivals have not finished in the top half of the league together since 2006. With both teams talented and off to a good start, this game is a renewal of sorts to the days when the Killer Ps ruled the league. I see a competitive game, but Princeton holding serve on its home court.

Pick: Princeton 68, Penn 60

RECORD LAST WEEK: 6-2 (To date: 6-2)
