Brown's game notes for Dartmouth have been posted here.
•
The notes include a scary list of the 70-plus yard touchdown runs by John Spooney, the Ivy League sprint champion who probably would have had more but didn't play football last year as he concentrated on track:
94 yards vs. Penn, 11-2-13The notes also mention that Brown's Emory Polley leads the nation in interceptions per game. His five "picks" have him at 0.6 per game.
93 yards vs. Penn, 11-2-13
81 yards vs. Cornell, 10-22-11
73 yards vs. URI, 10-5-13
71 yards vs. Princeton, 10-19-13

Worst-case scenario: Sixth. Dartmouth loses its final two games, Brown beats Columbia, and both Penn and Yale win at least one more game.
