If there are previews of today's game anywhere, I couldn't find'm.

Princeton Alumni Weekly reports on the Tigers' loss at Harvard.

25 points at Lavietes Pavilion propelled Dan Mavraides to the Honor Roll of the penultimate Ivy League Men's Basketball Weekly Release.

Here's a preview:

The Tigers will attack this the way they would a playoff or an NCAA tournament game, because it effectively is one. Win or go home, backs to the wall, do or die, survive and advance, sudden death, go big or go home. If I've left out any cliches, you can eliminate me from the tournament as well.

I was thinking how this week is very close to what Princeton's experience in a top-4 Ivy Tournament would be like, with the exception of being at Penn tonight:

After finishing the "regular season" a 1/2 game behind Harvard, 2nd seed Princeton must beat 3rd seed Penn in the semis to face top seed Harvard in the finals at Yale for the right to represent the League in the NCAA Tournament, all on ESPN3.
