Herman Hickman, Yale's large, round coach, really went out on the proverbial limb over the weekend. Hickman expounded on the strength of Ivy League football and arrived at the surprising conclusion that "the top three or four teams in our group are stronger than the top three or four teams of any other conference in the nation."
He named these top teams as Pennsylvania, Princeton, and Cornell and went on to state that "the two best teams in the country last year were Princeton and Tennessee." He wouldn't state which of the two was better. Hickman did concede, however, that the Big Ten has the strongest full complement of teams.
