Jordan Dingle leads the Quakers in scoring with 19.7 PPG along with 2.5 APG while Clark Slajchert has 10.4 PPG and Max Martz has 10.1 PPG and a team-high 5.2 RPG as well this season.

The Brown Bears will try to bounce back from a 69-50 loss at the hands of Princeton last time out. Tamenang Choh leads the Bears in scoring, rebounding and assists with 14.2 PPG, 8.2 RPG and 2.7 APG this season.

Penn is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 Saturday games while the over is 5-0 in their last 5 games against a team with a losing record. Brown is 0-5 ATS in their last 5 home games against a team with a losing road record while the over is 6-0 in their last 6 games against a team with a losing record.

I get why Brown’s favored at home and the Quakers had to travel on the Ivy League back-to-back that you rarely see. However, Penn’s been a lot more consistent covering the number this season and I think the Quakers bounce back with a key victory in the conference tournament race. Give me the Quakers here.
