Let's hear it for Ralph! One man offense machine!

From: https://gocolumbialions.com/news/2020/10/28/football-columbias-top-10-game-winning-field-goals.aspx

5. Ralph Hewitt | Nov. 1, 1930 (Columbia 10, Cornell 7)
A week after he defeats Willliams on a last-minute field goal, Hewitt drop kicks the game-winning 52-yard field goal and returns a kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown in a 10-7 Columbia win over Cornell at Baker Field. Hewitt scores all 10 of Columbia's points. His 52-yard field still ranks as the longest field goal in school history and his 92-yard kickoff return touchdown is one of the longest in school history.

And good for Columbia for shaking off a 52-0 loss to Dartmouth at Memorial Field the week before in beating Williams!

Please tell me that you've got memorized Dartmouth game scores back to 1930.

I had to look it up.

But I do know that by that era, Dartmouth was generally kicking the #### out of teams that ended up being classified as Division III.

So I was not surprised to see that we easily handled Columbia in a year that they needed a last-minute field goal to beat Williams.

... Dartmouth claimed its only national championship in 1925.

I certainly hope that Dartmouth does something to mark the 100-year anniversary of that team next Fall!!!

I do think that inviting any known descendants would be a nice touch!

:)

Referencing your use of the term "kicking the #### out of teams," this morning on ESPN College Game Day, Nick Saban was talking about one of his Alabama offenses when he said on live television, "We went down the field like s--t through a tin horn."

Then the other guys on the set reacted and repeated "s--t" on national television.

Only four days later and already the rules have changed.
