I have identified several conditions that when they are met, The Ranker’s picks are significantly more accurate.  Here are today’s picks that The Ranker has most confidence in:

• Cornell +1.5 (@ Dartmouth)
• Ill.-Chicago +1 (@ Detroit)
• Valparaiso +1.5 (@ Oakland)
• Yale +3 (vs Princeton)
• Quinnipiac +1 (vs Fairfield)
• California -2.5 (@ Stanford)

Also, there are certain teams whose games The Ranker picks especially well (at least 70% correctly).  Four of those teams play tonight.  The teams for which The Ranker is particularly tuned in are in bold:

• Ill.-Chicago +1 (@ Detroit)
• Harvard -8 (vs Columbia)
• Quinnipiac +1 (vs Fairfield)
• California -2.5 (@ Stanford)
