A note from a regular reader who dug up some interesting numbers about the Dartmouth football team:Win one more game this year the class of 2014 will be the first class since the class of 2000 to have a four-year winning record (Last year’s seniors were 19-21 over four years.) The class of 2014 has won 20 games and has four left to play.

The Dartmouth has a straight game story on the win over Columbia.

The Columbia Spectator has a story headlined, Deflated at Dartmouth. From that story:
This is the second time in two years that the team has taken a long trip only to wish it had stayed in Manhattan—last year, it was a 69-0 flattening by a very good Harvard team. This loss is worse, though. I was willing to accept last year’s loss as a consequence of growing pains under head coach Pete Mangurian, as a fluke against a very good team that was sandwiched between two good wins against Yale and Cornell. But there’s not much evidence that Dartmouth is some sort of world-beater.The Spec has a couple more stories here and here.

Jake Novak in the Roar Lions blog calls Saturday's game a Hanover Humiliation.
•
From a column posted by The Sports Network:Dartmouth defeated Columbia Saturday, 56-0. It was the first shutout Dartmouth has pitched since the 2011 season, which was ironically the last time Columbia made the trip to Hanover, N.H. The date of the Big Green's last shutout win was almost exactly two years ago, on Oct. 22, 2011, against the same team at the same location.The Dartmouth-Columbia and Harvard-Princeton games get a mention in the notes section of another TSN column.

The Associated Press has a story about former Dartmouth assistant Joe Moglia that starts this way:Joe Moglia has another successful venture with Coastal Carolina football, one that could result in an FCS championship.
The one-time CEO of TD Ameritrade has the Chanticleers undefeated at 7-0 and No. 3 in the Football Championship Subdivision. Moglia's club has won 13 of its last 14 games the past two seasons.From the story:
It's hard to see Moglia losing at anything he puts his mind to. He won a pair of Ivy League championships as Dartmouth defensive coordinator in 1982 and '83 before moving into the financial world.
