In response to Dr. V
Concerning wins and losses, Sagarin has Columbia's strength of schedule so far at number 22, well above any other Ivy. Much more aggressive than Smith's scheduling. Engles has thrown his young team into a crucible. The next stretch has lower level opponents, so we'll get a preview of whether it will pay off.
Interestingly, going by Sagarin's ratings, each of the Ivy top five would be predicted to split with each other and sweep the bottom three. And the bottom three would be predicted to split with each other and lose two to the top five. So, Yale, Harvard, Penn, P'ton and Columbia would be 10-4 and Brown, Cornell and D'mouth 2-12. That would be a fun season to watch, unlikely as it is.
