Really scratching my head at this o/u of 114 for this game. Princeton's highest scoring ivy league game has been 109 (twice) against harvard and penn. I watched the penn game on tuesday and the teams combined for 16 points in the final minute (exchanging free throws and three pointers) to get the total that high. I know yale is bad defensively, but against bad defensive teams princeton tends to build a lead then slow the game down even more than usual. On the other side of the ball, yale is 2nd to harvard in the league in possessions per game and way below them in points per possession. Harvard managed all of 53 points against princeton, and that was on their home court, so you'd have to figure yale would be hardpressed to get more than 45 here. Oh yea, and these teams just played to a total of 103 about a month ago. I really thought that after 7 straight unders to start conference play the oddsmakers would adjust to princeton, but seems like they haven't. Princeton under 114 LARGE
