Take Yale here. The Bulldogs are going to be a force in the IVY league this season. Danny Wolf and Matt Knowling make up a legit frontcourt for the Bulldogs. They also more than capable guards who can knock down shots from the perimeter. Kansas full focus might not be there, as it has been a big dose of primetime games for the Jayhawks in November/December. This is Yale’s biggest game of the season, and they will be fully ready as they come into Allen Fieldhouse.
