Toe to Toe: Karr vs. Schmidley (Karr)

By Ryan Karr | November 17, 2008

"Should I drop Kerry Collins?" "I'm dropping Marc Bulger." "Did you pick up anybody when you dropped him?" "Yeah, I picked up Jonathan Stewart." "You suck." "Yeah, I know." "There is nobody good to pick up." "You can pick me up." "No, I don't want some idiot named Lee Murtha on my team." "Fine." "Boom, baby!" "What a hit." That was the conversation going on around me when I sat down to write this column, evidence that it is indeed football season.

Football aims for upset win against league-leading Brown

By IVAN ZLATAR | November 14, 2008

In a season where there has been little to cheer about, the winless Dartmouth football team will have a unique opportunity to ruin another team's season when it faces Brown this weekend. Brown (5-3, 4-1 Ivy) is tied for the Ivy League lead with Harvard (7-1, 4-1 Ivy) and the University of Pennsylvania (5-3, 4-1 Ivy). Each team has just one conference loss this year with just two games remaining on each team's schedule. Brown is just two wins away from its first league championship since 2005, when it tied with Princeton for a share of the title. Interestingly enough, four years ago, Dartmouth and Brown found themselves in a similar situation.
