The final Gridiron Power Index numbers from the 2006 season have been posted by College Sporting News and the Ivy League was ranked sixth of 16 conferences in the former I-AA. The news wasn't as good for Dartmouth. (Think of the GPI as a BCS-type gauge of teams and conferences in the old I-AA.) The numbers:
