Helmets off to the Viking and his crew—the Quakers will get the win.

Prediction: Penn 28, Princeton 24

BROWN AT YALE

Heat waves bring increased crime.

That’s the hidden explanation behind why ice cream trucks correlate with violent crime, and it’s also a fact. As much as you despise the winter, you can take solace in the fact that you’re statistically less likely to get mugged as the temperature cools off.

On an unrelated note, Yale has scheduled most of its home games for the second half of the season, with three of its last four contests coming in New Haven.

While I’m on the topic of petty theft, I might as well make my prediction: Brown will steal this game, and the result won’t matter.

With conference records of 2-2 and 1-3 respectively, the Bears and the Bulldogs don’t have much to fight for beyond the title of second-ugliest New England city with a population under 200,000.

But fight they will, and Brown’s senior quarterback Marcus Fuller promises to cause game-long trouble for Yale’s young defense.
