Yale vs Albany Prediction

I’m on Yale here. Albany’s yet to get a win over a D-I team so far this season, and when they’ve played D-I competition, far more often than not it’s resulted in losses by double digits. Yale is one of the best the Ivy League has to offer, and they’ve got a fantastic offense that can light it up on the scoreboard. I think Yale runs over Albany here, so give me the Great Danes laying the big number.
