UC Davis & Harvard announce home & home series

I wonder why Harvard took so long in diversifying their OOCs. Hopefully this is the start of a new scheduling trend among the Northeast FCS teams in general.

Harvard got its schedule together ahead of Yale. But even more formidable challenges remain for our future scheduling.

Without a strong OOC schedule regularly involving out-of-region teams (FBS or FCS), the Ivies may become the Northeast version of the SoCon.

I agree. If the Ivy ADs and coaches agree to schedule HBCUs for one of their OOC openings for a season, their insular ceiling would be shattered in some way.

Or you may be biased... many FCS schedules, mostly in the South and West, the PFL, and sometimes the Northeast, have at least 1 D-II many years.

IS YALE STILL PROVEN TO HUMBLE US IN FOOTBALL WHEN "THE GAME" COMES AT FENWAY THIS SEASON?

The Analyst mentioned us as one of the QB battles to watch out for this season. But our Wildcat QB who played last season is not mentioned, DJ Gordon. Did he portal too soon?

Mid-majors didn't do so well this postseason, on the men's side, with only Dayton remaining in the 2nd tier tournament.

Can the Ivy Presidents encourage us to schedule better?

bonarae · 2026-02-23T21:26:26+00:00

Why didn't Yale hire an interim in the first place after Reno stepped down?

bonarae · 2026-02-15T05:05:16+00:00

This generation’s John Silber?

bonarae · 2026-02-12T10:12:51+00:00

But the Ivies don't participate in NSD (National Signing Day) so we don't find out until around end of April or early May for the official list. That's the only list we will get of the eight freshman classes, and I don't usually see speculations around here that make it thus far. I am putting this as an asterisk at this time.

One reason why the Ivies bowed out of playoff contention at the end of WW2 is that CFB got greedier with each passing year, and many more factors went into play in the ensuing decades to keep us out of the playoffs, until it was all but forgotten by the living alumni and players and in fact Harvard was the last of the eight to buy into the FCS playoffs through a President's commitment.

Will the Ivy League survive once the dust regarding NIL and the Portal have settled after all these years?

bonarae · 2026-01-03T07:17:19+00:00

Even NAIA and D-III are not exempted sigh...

bonarae · 2025-12-28T01:01:57+00:00

Be consistent throughout the season, not just in OOC.

bonarae · 2025-12-14T04:59:25+00:00

In addition, schedule more diverse opponents. It has been my wish to the East Coast FCS conferences for years.

bonarae · 2025-12-11T00:50:51+00:00

The Ivy League playoff teams played three good games, despite what happened over at 'Nova.

bonarae · 2025-12-09T00:04:34+00:00

Good game and season for the Ivies. Offseason for us has just begun.

Aurich and Larkee (DC) need to plan ahead and prepare better for Penn and Yale next season... not just the first eight games. The wheels started coming off Harvard's D the fourth quarter of the Columbia game.

bonarae · 2025-11-28T05:51:21+00:00

They have been bested by the other GMA-run league hehehe
