Brown vs Princeton Prediction 

Princeton comes into this matchup two games behind Yale in the Ivy League standings, but they are in great shape to make the end-of-year tournament. The Tigers have won two games in a row and just beat Brown by a score of 69-49 on February 1st. Princeton is shooting 44% from the field this year and they have allowed 59 and 49 points in their last two games. Brown has lost three of their last four games and they have allowed at least 74 points in four of their last five. The Bears are just 2-5 in conference play and I don’t think this game will be much better for them than their first meeting. Take Princeton here.
