The Big Green ranks last in total defense (448 ypg), as well as averaging just 3.6 tackles-for-loss per game, second-to-last among I-AA teams. One of the few bright spots, however, has been inside linebacker and four-year starter Ian Wilson, who averages over 10 tackles per game. Should Dartmouth hope to pull a huge upset over the Crimson, it must improve in all aspects...
