With disappointment swirling around Penn football and its conference record, the squad has upset on its collective mind.

The Red and Blues matchup with rival Princeton on Saturday represents an opportunity for the Quakers to bury some of the frustration that has largely defined the transitioning teams season.

The task will be far from easy for the Red and Blue (1-6, 1-3 Ivy), however, as the Tigers team they face will be fighting to keep its Ivy League title hopes alive.

Princeton(4-3, 3-1), tied with Yale and Dartmouth in the Ivy standings behind undefeated Harvard, bounced back from a lopsided loss to the Crimson with a 38-27 win over Cornell last weekend.

The Tigers third-ranked offense boasts a pair of talented quarterbacks in seniors Connor Michelsen and Quinn Epperly .

Michelsen has seen the majority of snaps behind center as of late, an opportunity he has taken advantage of.

In Princetons last two wins,over Cornell and Brown, Michelson threw for a combined 648 yards and six touchdowns.

Overall, Michelsen has been more efficient and less mistake-prone than Epperly this season.

Its likely that the Tigers will roll with the hot hand this Saturday against Penn, but Epperly, who is a strong runner, is always a change-of-pace threat.

When they have [Epperly] in the game, they tend to run him more than they would run [Michelson], coach Al Bagnoli said. You have to prepare for the same passing attack its a lefty [Epperly]/righty [Michelsen] combination but in the run game is where you see the big difference.
