The Dartmouth Big Green will head out on the road to face Ivy League rivals, the Yale Bulldogs.
The season thus far has gone in opposite directions for the two teams as the Big Green enter this contest (4-11) while the Yale Bulldogs stand (10-4).
The good news for both teams is that Ivy League play is just kicking off, so there is plenty of time for each team to run for the automatic berth for the 2023 NCAA March Madness Tournament.
Who will be victorious on Friday night--the Dartmouth Big Green or the host, the Yale Bulldogs?

Dartmouth Big Green vs. Yale Bulldogs: Prediction
Dartmouth is better than their 4-11 record would suggest, but they are still not on the level of the Yale Bulldogs.
Come March, expect the Yale Bulldogs to be in the thick of the Conference title race to become the league representative in March Madness.
Yale has too much firepower for Dartmouth and will control the action throughout this one. Take the Bulldogs and give the points.
Final Prediction: Yale Bulldogs -15.5, O/U 129.5
