Dartmouth tops Brown, 52-31, keeps hold on Ivy League title | |
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) Derek Kyler threw for 215 yards and three touchdowns, Nick Howard rushed for two more and Dartmouth scorched Brown after halftime, 52-31, on Saturday to win at least a share of its 20th Ivy League championship, most in the Ancient Eight. Howard tied the program record for most rushing touchdowns in a season with 15 - a record that's stood since 1929. Kyler also rushed for a career-high 79 yards and a touchdown. Dartmouth (9-1, 5-1), ranked No. 21 in the FCS coaches poll, ended the first half with a field goal and opened the second with a lightning-fast touchdown drive, opening a 31-17 lead on Brown (2-8, 1-6), which had matched score for score through the first half.
