Who We Like: The Quakers have been a bad bet in this series, failing to cover the spread in eight of their last 10 meetings with the Crimson. Penn has also failed to cover the number in five of its last seven games when facing an opponent with a winning record. On the other side, the Crimson are 25-7-2 against the spread in their last 34 Ivy League games and are 23-7-1 against the number in their last 31 games coming off a win. Even though Penn will benefit from playing on its home floor, Harvard’s Seth Towns should take over this game at some point.
