Davis counted 13.6 stops for loss among his 58 tackles as a sophomore last fall.
Dartmouth's Michael Runger led the Ivy League with 98 tackles and joined Davis on the All-Ivy first team, but the CFPA overlooked him presumably because he was credited with just 1.5 tackles for loss.

Question: Was Dartmouth football in a conference before the Ivy League?Answer: Yes. A long time ago.
From the Wesleyan University website (italics are mine):
The fierce Wesleyan-Williams-Amherst rivalries are among the oldest in the East. In fact, they are so ancient that it is difficult to tell when the "Little Three" came into existence. A forerunner of the present group was the New England Intercollegiate Triangular League, founded in 1882. Its members were Amherst, Dartmouth, and Williams. This group lasted until 1899, when Dartmouth withdrew.
