With Dartmouth's nonconference opponents now revealed, it's a good time to take a look at who else is on Ivy League schedules in 2026. Games listed below are not necessarily in the order in which they will be played. (Aiding in the compiling of this incomplete list is the FBSchedules site.)

Green Alert Take: A good number of these games were scheduled before the Ivy League OK'd sending teams to the FCS playoffs. It will be interesting in coming years to see how scheduling philosophies change – or don't change – as Ivy teams try to balance playing a competitive schedule and building a good record.

With yesterday being national signing day, the algorithm in my searches brought up a 247Sports listing of Dartmouth recruits HERE.
Green Alert Take: Anyone who uses those services as a way to compare recruiting classes should know 247Sports identifies just nine committed Dartmouth players. The list, for example, does not include the record-setting quarterback coming this way. As noted here yesterday, the Big Green already has at least 24 commits. Last year's 247Sports list for Dartmouth had just eight players on it while there were 26 recruits. Incomplete list like that make any comparison between schools faulty.

Not surprisingly, no incoming commits or their families sent along photos or links. My algorithm did bring up this from the WXYZ TV web page (LINK):

EXTRA POINT
I don't know if I mentioned this before, but part-time neighbors have planted hundreds of Christmas trees in the field across from our house. Here's how they looked yesterday with new-fallen snow and a dramatic sunset over a shoulder of the mountain I had just finished hiking. And yes, the color is accurate.
