But Penn has not been in the best form lately, having back-to-back losses, having scored just an average of 61.5 points per game and are 0-3 against the spread in their last 3. On the other hand, Lafayette is 2-1 in its last 3 games and 2-1 against the spread, so I expect them to keep this game close. Take Lafayette and get the plus points in this one.
