...Columbia crawled out of the league cellar with a 2-8 record in 2008, and the Lions return a number of key contributors on defense. Junior linebacker Alex Gross returns after leading the league in tackles a year ago, and senior Lou Mills paced the Ivies in sacks. Columbia is also one of the few teams to return its starting quarterback. Senior Shane Kelly will have his three top targets—Austin Knowlin, Taylor Joseph, and Mike Stephens— back as well...
...Once again picked to finish in the basement of the Ivy League, Dartmouth was outscored by an average of over 21 points a game last year. The good news for the Big Green is that its young squad has one more year of experience. Junior wide receiver Tim McManus will again be the top target in the air, coming off a season in which he hauled in 60 catches and earned All-Ivy honors. But the defense, which gave up an abysmal 455 yards a game in 2008, still needs some help...
...Harvard’s biggest question is at quarterback, but junior Collier Winters will have plenty of experienced targets at receiver in his first collegiate start. The running corps remains fully intact from last year’s Ivy-leading offense. Defensively, the Crimson will have to contend with the loss of six All-Ivy starters, but a senior-heavy front seven and a seasoned secondary leaves Harvard in good shape against a league with few veteran quarterbacks...
...Picked second in the Ivies this season, Penn will be helmed by junior quarterback Keiffer Garton, who jumped from third to first on the depth chart towards the end of last year. Garton’s top target will be senior Kyle Derham, who led the team with 404 receiving yards in ’08. Kicker Andrew Samson returns after leading the league with 16 field goals. All-Ivy senior Chris Wynn anchors a unit that was second in the Ancient Eight in scoring defense...
...First-year coach Tom Williams has a battle at quarterback on his hands. Junior Brook Hart, who started five games last year, is the incumbent, but sophomore transfer Patrick Witt has been seeing a lot of preseason action as well. Whoever earns the job will have some familiar faces at receiver, as the top three targets are all back. The Bulldogs also lost several key players from the defensive unit, which was tops in the Ivies with just 10.5 points allowed per game...
