Subject: Re: Columbia Wins at Dartmouth to Remain Undefeated in the Ivies Author: Boston Lion [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 15:48:33 02/03/25 Mon In reply to: Boston Lion 's message, "Columbia Wins at Dartmouth to Remain Undefeated in the Ivies" on 19:42:04 02/01/25 Sat Question for smarter people: How does Columbia (1) go undefeated in the Ivies at 7-0, (2) then beat Princeton by 8, and (3) then beat Harvard AT Harvard by 9 after leading virtually wire to wire and by as much as 19, and still get ranked five spots below H with H's ranking not taking a dent after the head-to-head loss to C? I'm aware of the transitive fallacy, but, still, I would've thought that last Friday's resounding head-to-head win (not a squeaker) AT H would have caused more of a ripple. Is this because of the two teams' results against common opponent, IU, whom H beat by 4 and C lost to by 10, despite leading IU very late in the game? I straight-up acknowledge that I'm not a bb whiz and am obviously missing chunks here. So, can someone provide the "second-level" knowledge that makes this make sense? Thanks in advance.

Mangurian almost killed football at Columbia, but Engles is on his way to doing him one better.
