Point Spread: 5.50 | -109.00 Big Red (COR) (Away)
Result: Loss
Cornell is coming into this game with an 18-10 record this season and they are 9-5 in the conference. They were the 2nd best team in the Ivy League this season and they have been on fire in their recent games. They have won their last 5 straight games with their last 4 wins all coming by 10+ points. Their offense has been on fire as well, scoring 85+ points in their last 6 straight games and scoring 100+ points in 2 of their last 3. They are coming off of an 87-71 win against Dartmouth in their last game and they are going to get up for this game with a chance to go to the big dance. They are going up against a Yale team that is 21-7 this season and they are 13-1 in the conference. Their only loss in the conference this season came against Harvard, but that loss was also in their 2nd last game of the season. They have won their last 2 straight games since that only loss, but they struggled a lot in their 1st game of this tournament as they are coming off of a 59-57 win against Princeton in their last game. Their offense has not been great recently either, scoring 70 points or less in each of their last 3 games. Yale won both meetings with Cornell this season and it was not close on the road, but their last meeting at home was much closer as Yale only won that game by 4 points. Cornell has been a very good shooting team this season, both from the 3 and from the field, and their offense has been scoring a lot of points recently so they are going to put up a good fight in this game as they are not only playing to get to the big dance, they are also playing for double revenge here. Cornell will cover the spread in this game.
