In his weekly picks on the Roar Lions blog Jake Novak writes of tomorrow's game at Colgate, "The Big Green will bounce back big." (LINK)
Green Alert Take: BGA Premium's weekly Fearful Forecast has lived up to the name most of the season but last week was gold, picking all six games featuring Dartmouth opponents correctly. Predicting week's results looks considerably more challenging.

EXTRA POINT
Here's a Colgate tidbit you may not know. When we toured 'Gate with That Certain Dartmouth '14 – who very nearly went there – we were told that the school's biggest crossover for students was with Dartmouth. So much so, in fact, that they had printed directions they would hand out showing how to get from Hamilton, N.Y., to Hanover, N.H.
Beyond the outstanding academic reputation, beautiful campus and neat little downtown, TCD'14 was attracted to the school because they handed out ice cream sandwiches made with huge cookies at the admissions office at the end of the tour. Ice cream, Mandrake, is the key to the girl's heart.
