Trying to think of when Cornell had such a huge turnaround from Friday night to Saturday night, at least in the Ivies:
Friday, Yale 72, Cornell 60 -12 points
Saturday, Cornell 85, Brown 45, +40 points
Still, even with the Friday upset, we're 8-2 in the league with four games to play and the next best are at 6-4: Columbia, Yale, Dartmouth.
Short of us completely falling apart over the next four games we're going to make the NCAAs. Would be nice to clinch it on our home court. But since we lost all of our "high profile" OUC games (Minn, IU, Cuse, etc) we're probably going to get a 14 seed at best. Maybe even a 15.
I haven't paid attention in a couple weeks and was gonna say "What about Princeton?" but then I saw the standings and their schedule, wow, they fall off pretty fast there.
Well, with our loss to Harvard last night we've allowed PU to creep back in it. One game lead with two to play; Penn and PU at home this weekend. PU is the only team that can catch us. Thankfully their remaining three games are all on the road; @Harlem, @Ithaca, and @ Philly. We're still in good shape but it seems like we're leaking oil a bit.
