SportsLine's model revealed its college basketball predictions for Yale Bulldogs vs. Princeton Tigers on Saturday in the 2025 Ivy League Tournament semifinals

The Tigers are 8-6 in Ivy League play. Princeton is sixth in the Ivy League with 14.5 assists per game led by Xaivian Lee averaging 5.2. Yale averages 82.2 points, 9.7 more per game than the 72.5 Princeton gives up. Princeton averages 74.2 points per game, 4.5 more than the 69.7 Yale allows.

Caden Pierce’s attempt to tie the game was swatted away by Samson Aletan, and after Yale grabbed the rebound what followed was a bizarre sequence. With a tight differential between shot and game clock, Princeton played out the possession instead of fouling.
