FCS guru Craig Haley Tweeted this:

Longest active win streaks in the FCS:

7 – San Diego

5 – North Dakota State

4 – Alabama A&M, Dartmouth, Richmond

Green Alert Take: Ivy League schools and those that don't make the FCS playoffs have an advantage in a list like this. A more telling list might be schools with the longest active regular season win streaks.

With the most recent announcement on COVID-19 protocols at Dartmouth College, the athletics department is evaluating how the current policies will impact our winter sports events and has been working closely with campus leadership to determine how to proceed. 

The college will require COVID-19 booster shots of everyone by Jan. 31. (LINK)
