The shame with this video is the narrator didn't do a little more homework and find more up-to-date pictures. Dartmouth's Memorial Field gets short shrift for sure:

Ridiculous as it is, I almost prefer THIS LOOK at Ivy League stadiums because at least the narrator doesn't take himself seriously.

Speaking of stadiums, since the last time Dartmouth played at Colgate in 2008 the school installed a newer, much larger video board. While this video is meant to promote the company that installed the board, it does offer a quick look at the gorgeous setting for Andy Kerr Stadium:

For a better look at Colgate's facility from field level, the video that doesn't take itself seriously visits Andy Kerr for a minute HERE.

Speaking of Colgate, take a look at the detailed weekly football notes package put out by the Patriot League HERE.

Green Alert Take: The Ivy League could learn something.
