Week 10 Picks







I was 2-1 against the spread last week to bring my season's record to 17-20-2. But I was a disappointing 1-2 straight up to bring my overall record to 21-18.

I still have no real explanation for my bad performance this season, but I have to keep trying!


Dartmouth +8 at Princeton

Princeton's defense is still very strong and they proved it against Yale last week. But with the injuries piling up, I don't think the Tigers will rip the Green by more than one score. Princeton to win, Dartmouth to cover.


Cornell +6 vs. Penn

Billy Ragone is the heart and soul of the Quakers and I don't think he'll be able to play Saturday, at least not anywhere near 100%. Without Ragone, Penn is not very good. Cornell to win. 


Yale +31 1/2 at Harvard

By all rights, Harvard should slaughter Yale by MORE than 32 points Saturday. But this is The Game, and I think the Elis will get a score or two and lose something like 38-10.
