Week 8 Picks

 


I went a dismal 2-4 straight up last week and 1-5 against the spread. My season totals are now 34-13 SU and 22-25 AGS


Dartmouth -10 at Princeton (Game is Friday night!) 

Princeton looks very lost, and the Big Green needs this win. 


Cornell +3 vs. Penn

This seems like an easy pick. Take that for what it's worth. 


Brown +16 at Yale

The Bears will barely (no pun intended) cover this spread. 


Colgate +3 1/2 vs. Lafayette 

The Patriot League makes less and less sense to me every year, so just take the points.

Oh no!!! Columbia guys are talking trash again and predicting a large margin of victory against Harvard. The Lions are doomed now... *sigh*

The Lions will do to the Crimson what Donald J. Trump just did to Comrade Kamala. The only blue wave this November will be the Lion’s stifling defense and overwhelming rushing attack.

I’ve noticed this weird (and very limited) recent practice of putting the lower score first, as in the comment above. It’s only from a few people, and I’ve never seen this done in major publications, news outlets, or sports sites (like ESPN). In fact, it’s mostly been in student publications. The thing is, it looks strange. Why not just write your prediction as 13-10 Harvard? That seems clear and aligns with English’s being a language that is read from left to right. And no one is confused by that convention about which team scored fewer points. Has Chicago, MLA, AP, or any other guide changed the reccommendation on this, and I just missed it? Maybe not a big deal—just wanted to mention it. Now the more important matter: I’ll say 19-13 Columbia.

Harvard QB is good, as is their #1 receiver. Coach’s Corner this week is worth watching.

What does RV stand for on the Columbia AD site?

Receiving Votes, means they are receiving votes to be ranked in the FCS top 25

Would love that result. Also wouldn’t mind seeing Dartmouth lose, much as it pains me to root for the Tigers.

I think Penn and Yale both win big. My head tells me Dartmouth also smokes Princeton. And the Lions in a nailbiter!

Take your fascist politics elsewhere. This is about sports which should bring us together.
