The Penn Quakers have been a mess for much of the season, and their defense gets roughed around a lot when playing decent competition. The Princeton Tigers look like the team to beat in the Ivy League, they’re downright rolling right now, and while they’re not covering numbers, this line feels more than reasonable. I need more points to consider Penn here. Give me Princeton and the reasonable line.
