...share of the title. The Tigers, to the surprise of many, picked up where they left off, entering the national rankings this week for the first time since 1993. Coach Roger Hughes’ shutdown D (274 yards surrendered per game) has led the team to victories over the Patriot League’s top three.The same can not be said for defending champion Brown. The Bears’ bid to repeat will all but end with a loss in Jersey, and the suddenly porous defense, giving up more than 400 yards per game, and floundering running game...
With a Princeton win here and a Harvard victory against Lafayette next Saturday, the Ivy League can affirm its season dominance over the Patriot League. Road losses by Dartmouth and Cornell against Colgate and Bucknell, respectively, are the only blemishes on the Ivies’ sparkling 9-2 head-to-head record.

DeWine and the national Republicans are running ads attacking Brown for his opposition to the Patriot Act, the Bush tax cuts and some measures the G.O.P. has pushed to stop illegal immigration, such as the immigration bill the House passed last year that didn't have a guest worker program. Brown is attacking DeWine for supporting trade agreements like NAFTA that he says have cost jobs in Ohio, backing President Bush on the war and not doing enough to hold down the cost...
...effectiveness. In 2006, it appears that the offense will once again lean on Dawson for the first few games of the year until Witt finds his footing. Dawson has victimized Holy Cross several times in the past, amassing 583 yards and eight touchdowns in four career games against the Patriot League foe. The Crusaders were also the victim of Dawson’s 21st game of 100 yards or more in only 30 career games. He also ranks second among active players in Division I-AA in career rushing yards per game . For his efforts, Dawson was named Ivy League...
