Best Of Times, Worst Of Times

Quarterback Josh Cohen lets the Big Green offense know what he sees Sunday afternoon. Dartmouth will hit for the first time today at practice. Check in tonight for a full practice report on Big Green Alert.


The New York Times kicked off its college football blog with a look at the Ivy League. That's the good news. The Times writes of Dartmouth: "The offensive line is much better. The running game is not." (link)

Now the bad news. At least one reader thought the Old Gray Lady should have started with another conference. He wrote:
... I realize your newsroom probably has a 3/1 Ivy League grad ratio but when your schools are better known for rowing and badminton…don’t come at us flatlanders with an Ivy League football preview. I can’t watch these games on TV ANYWHERE, even if I wanted to. Which I don’t.

Preview the conferences, please do. Start with the Big 10, move on to the SEC, then the PAC 10, Big East, you can even bother with the ACC, but the Ivy League?
Seriously?
Ouch. Badminton?

The Cornell Sun has a writeup of the Big Red's scrimmage. (link)

UNH football will have a bye week while most of the rest of the Colonial Athletic Association is opening up this week. (link)

Say what you want about Keggy the Keg -- the student-created character that shows up at occasional Dartmouth football games as well as other contests and events around campus -- the beer-bellied one is pretty photogenic. I stumbled across the Kegmeister's blog yesterday (link). It hasn't been updated in a while, but it's kind of fun to scan down.
