Tonight’s Ivy League feature sees the Harvard Crimson host an upset-minded Penn Quakers squad.
When these teams met last on Feb. 16 it took an extra frame for Harvard to exit Penn’s home floor with a 75-68 win.
Since, each program is 1-1, having won their previous contests.
The visiting Quakers dodged a fourth-straight overtime encounter by downing Cornell 80-65 on Sat.
Likewise, Harvard followed a loss to Brown by inching past division leading Yale, 88-86.
[dfads params=’groups=20599&limit=1&return_javascript=1′]
Harvard averages 72 ppg while allowing 70 ppg —each mid-pack numbers, though their defense is slightly above average.
Junior Bryce Aiken (21.8) leads a balanced Crimson offense.
Meanwhile, Penn averages 74.6 ppg and allows 70.2, each respectable marks.
Junior forward AJ Brodeur (13.6) paces the Quakers in scoring.
Penn Quakers
Since a strong non-conference showing, including a signature Dec. 11 win vs. nationally-ranked Villanova, the Quakers have found momentum elusive.
Having lost three-of-five, while splitting a recent four-game homestand, Penn hopes to reverse trends tonight by claiming consecutive victories.

Poor rebounding and depth issues marked the Quakers’ hard-luck recent OT setback vs. Harvard.
In addition to fading in overtime, Penn was bullied underneath as Harvard muscled its way to a 44-32 rebounding advantage.
In overtime, the Crimson outscored Penn 14-7 and showed superior depth while claiming a crucial 16-11 bench scoring edge.
To beat the spread, or Harvard, road-bound Penn will need increased resolve.
Harvard Crimson
As stated, during the teams’ latest meeting, Tommy Amaker’s men simply willed their way past a game, but fatigued Penn collective.
Bryce Aiken (25 pts) shined when needed most during that memorable Ivy League faceoff. Though, teammates Justin Bassey (19), Noah Kirkwood (14), and Chris Lewis (12) all played their part in securing road success.
Now, as four conference games remain, Harvard is intent on wresting regular season conference championship honors from Yale.
CBB Betting Trends:
- Harvard is 8-2 SU in its last ten games.
- Penn is 2-3 SU in its last five games.

Free Penn Quakers vs. Harvard Crimson NCAA Prediction:
Sporting an 8-2 record since Jan. 21, and having already defeated Penn at Penn, Harvard owns tonight’s momentum edge.
Though, a Quakers SU upset or win against the spread wouldn’t surprise.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Penn ATS
Overall, however, I’ll pick Harvard to win SU in what should be an entertaining Friday night matchup. And at 7-4 on the road, I think Penn beats the spread.
