The good, bad and ugly from this Ivy League Friday

 

The Good: Princeton pounded Yale in the closing 11 minutes to win 66-49. That's a barn burner at Jadwin if I've ever seen one. Yep, that's 4-12 Princeton beating one of the handful of teams who could potentially win a game against Penn this year.

The Bad: Attendance tonight at the Palestra. Late arrivals? No surprise here. Tomorrow's crowd could only be better.

The Ugly: Tonight's game.

First, I'm a little disappointed the Quakers didn't cover the spread (19 1/2 at game time) tonight against what can only be described as an awful Brown team.

Glen Miller's Bears are still in freefall from what they were two seasons ago, or even last year for that matter. But I don't see that as an excuse to really mail in the last 10 minutes. Obviously Fran Dunphy wants to get some minutes for his bench (they saw all of about three against St. Joseph's and La Salle). The minutes he got tonight were uninspired and sloppy.

If these guys really want to earn their way into games, they are going to have to put in a better effort.
