    I Like Cornell to beat Harvard by double digits tonight.

    Ok. I played a lot of Ivy league games last year and did pretty well overall. Tonight's matchup between Cornell and Harvard shouldn't be a contest and the line is in favor of winning some money. Harvard is 6-16, while Cornell is 14-5. Harvard just lost to Brown by 20pts in its last outing. Harvard has lost 5 of its last 6 conference games by double digits. Cornell is 6-0 in conference play and Harvard has lost 12 of thier last 14 games straight up. I like Cornell to win this game by 12-16 pts. I'm betting a dime on it myself.

    I think you meant to say that Harvard has lost 5 of last 6 conference games by double digits...I agree with the play as well. Good luck to you

    Actually you may be right that Harvard has lost 5 of it's last 6 by double digits.

    I'm not sure but I know Harvard is 1-5 in conference play....just trying to point out that in your 1st post you state that:
    Harvard has won 5 of its last 6 conference games by double digits.

    Yes, Cornell looks like an obvious play here. BUT, I am personally passing on this game for two reasons:

    1 - I rarely lay points on the road, and on the rare occassions that I do, it would have to be with a dominant team. I don't thing Cornell fits into that category.

    2 - If it looks too good to be true.....

    Good Luck to those playing Cornell though, as they do look like the only playable side.

    90% of public on them, line hasn't moved though. 8000 bets.
    I'm still laying a dime on them.

    At first look giving up points on the road in any conference
    play seems like a mistake. After a closer look at this game
    Cornell looks like they will cover. The Ivy league is playing
    a lot different from the resent years.

    betting 1.5 units on cornell. they have been good to me a few times this year.

    also magnarelli is listed at questionable. dsethi says he is probably sitting out this game. magnarelli is the leading reb and 2nd leading scoring for harvard.

    i tried going to harvards site to check out his status, but the site seems to be down. can anyone find out his status?

    Cornell beat Brown on the road by 11pts and Penn on the road by 13pts. They are 2nd and 3rd in the conference. Harvard is last. This does look too good to be true, but I'm rolling the dice.
