Don't get to see them often, but...
Penn was hot....UD had never lost to an Ivy....maybe the Flyers just didn't have their heads in the game for that reason. I don't get to see them play, so I'm a poor judge...but what I saw certainly didn't impress me, especially when the chips were down in the final minutes.
In the post game conversation with analysts the Penn coach made remarks specifically about Ivy league teams that were a bit interesting. He didn't come right out and put it the way I'm about to...but essentially he said that kids that play for Ivies are more intelligent than those in other conferences (probably true)....which makes them very easy to coach. My wife, who has very little interest in BB, even picked up on that and remarked to the effect, "I've never heard a coach say anything quite like that".
(I think Harvard lost by only 7 at Kentucky about a week ago.)
