Don’t let the records fool you, ladies and gentlemen. After the first four games of the Ivy regular season, there is a clear number one and a clear number two. Number one, everyone is in agreement on, especially after holding Yale to a measly 36 points in a 60-36 stomping last weekend. Cornell is the best team in the Ivies, and looking like it is only getting better.But number two: that title must go to Columbia. Although the team is all but out of the Ivy running after two losses to the Big Red, they...
