What to Know
The Dartmouth Big Green will be returning home after a two-game road trip. The Big Green and the Columbia Lions will face off in an Ivy battle at 2 p.m. ET Saturday at Edward Leede Arena. Given that both teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
It was close but no cigar for Dartmouth as they fell 93-90 to the Princeton Tigers on Saturday.
Meanwhile, the contest between Columbia and the Brown Bears on Saturday was not a total blowout, but with Columbia falling 97-85 on the road, it was darn close to turning into one.
Dartmouth is the favorite in this one, with an expected 8.5-point margin of victory. They are currently three-for-three against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.
Dartmouth took their matchup against the Lions when the two teams previously met in February of last year by a conclusive 79-50 score. Will the Big Green repeat their success, or does Columbia have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
