What to Know

After three games on the road, Columbia is heading back home. They and the Dartmouth Big Green will face off in an Ivy battle at 7:00 p.m. ET on Friday at Francis S. Levien Gymnasium. Coming in fresh off a win as the underdog, Columbia will stroll into this one as the favorite.

Even though Columbia has not done well against the Bears recently (they were 2-8 in their previous ten matchups), they didn't let the past get in their way on Saturday. The Lions came out on top against the Bears by a score of 83-69.

Meanwhile, Dartmouth's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Saturday after their third straight loss. They took a 77-59 bruising from the Crimson.

The Lions have been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 12-8 record this season. As for the Big Green, they dropped their record down to 5-15 with that loss, which was their 14th straight on the road dating back to last season.

This contest is shaping up to be a blowout: Columbia just can't miss this season, having made 47.3% of their shots per game. It's a different story for Dartmouth, though, as they've only made 39.6% of their shots this season. Given Columbia's sizable advantage in that area, the Big Green will need to find a way to close that gap.
