The lopsided outcome was nothing new for this team, which has averaged a 32.5-point margin of victory during their record-setting streak.

The Crimson ultimately outlasted Dartmouth, despite the very competitive last five minutes of play. The outcome of this game carried particular importance for Harvard, as Dartmouth defeated the Crimson in a tight early-season matchup by a score of 45-44.
