Barring any buzzer beaters, Princeton is expected to win a tight contest Saturday. They are currently two-for-two against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

A pair of stats to keep an eye on: The Tigers are stumbling into the matchup with the 19th fewest takeaways in college basketball, having accrued only 10.6 on average. The Quakers have had an even harder time: they are eighth worst in college basketball in takeaways, with only 10.3 on average. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
