Daily News | Here’s why Penn football are favorites – even as underdogs – against Ivy League champions Dartmouth
In arguably the biggest game of the season, Penn will make the seven-hour trek to Hanover, N.H. this Friday to open up its slate of Ivy League competition against Dartmouth. Though the Big Green are, the momentum swings towards an undefeated Penn program at 2-0.
The Big Green finished the 2021 season ranked No. 23 in FCS with a 9-1 record and has held onto the Ivy title since 2019. But even Goliath is beatable. Heading into week 2, Dartmouth was a 14.5-point favorite over Sacred Heart. However, a 38-31 overtime upset broke Dartmouth’s 20-game non-conference win streak stretching back to 2014.
So far this season, Heimlicher leads his team in most defensive stats, including total tackles , solo tackles , tackles for loss , and sacks . He’s also ranked No. 2 in tackles for loss per game and No. 6 in sacks per game among all FCS players. With his help, the Penn defense has the second-best scoring defense in the FCS, allowing just seven points per game.This will be the Quakers’ 89th bout with the Big Green.
