  • Dartmouth has lost each of its last seven road night games against the Ivy League.

Cornell vs Dartmouth Prediction

I’m on Dartmouth and the points in this one. I get why Cornell would be favored at home, but for my money, the Ivy League has to be one of the most volatile conferences in the country just with how any team can compete on any given night, as I just think there’s a lot more parity than we’re used to in other conferences. Dartmouth has also profiled really well as an underdog this season, and I think that the Big Green could hold some value here so I’ll side with Dartmouth and the points in this one.
