Cornell In Review

The Dartmouth has a game story from Cornell here. And The Cornell Daily Sun story is here.
Brown shut out Yale Saturday for the first time since 1949. Read about Dartmouth's next opponent in the Brown Daily Herald.
It was a throw-away line in a Sports Network story about the playoff bubble but think about it:
Dartmouth (5-3) clinched at least a .500 season for the third straight year under Buddy Teevens, rolling past Cornell, 44-28, on the road.
From the Boston Herald after Harvard's 69-0 thrashing of Columbia:
Harvard coach Tim Murphy, who tied Dartmouth coach Bob Blackman for fourth all-time in Ivy wins with 127.
A couple of clarifications on that. Blackman, of course, also coached at Cornell. He was 104-37-3 at Dartmouth, 23-33-1 at Cornell and 127-70-4 between the two schools. Murphy is 127-60 at Harvard.

The top-10 winningest coaches in Ivy League history (overall games):
  • 1. 179 - Carm Cozza, Yale 1965-96
  • 2. 140 - Edward Robinson, Brown 1898-01, 1904-07, 1910-25

  • 7. 120 - Tuss McLaughry, Brown  1926-40, Dartmouth 1941-42, 1945-54
  • 8. 117 - Joe Restic, Harvard 1971-93
  • 9. 110 - Lou Little, Columbia 1930-56
