Penn 34, Harvard 14
Harvard had twice as many first downs as Penn, completed 20 more passes, limited the Quakers to 278 yards ... and lost badly. Penn took a 27-0 lead into the fourth quarter against the mistake-prone Crimson while winning at least a share of its 15th Ivy League title, second-most in conference history to Dartmouth's 17. For more details, check out the official Penn recap here.
Yale 14, Princeton 13
One week after getting two kickoff returns for touchdown to sneak past Brown, the Bulldogs got a 57-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown against Princeton to keep their faint hopes for a share of the Ivy League title alive. The Bulldogs need a win over Harvard and a Penn loss to Cornell to gain a share.
Columbia 20, Cornell 17
The Lions needed 17 fourth-quarter points and a touchdown with 37 seconds remaining to avoid a devastating loss and snap a four-game losing streak.
Holy Cross 37, Lafayette 27
The Crusaders gave up 513 yards to lowly Lafayette – which had more than double the Holy Cross time of possession – but managed to win and get back to .500.
Colgate 31, Bucknell 7
Nate Eachus nearly outgained Bucknell by himself, running for 160 yards and three touchdowns (the Bison had 182 yards). Bucknell's only score came on a fourth-quarter fumble return.

Check out Versus video of a bizarre Brown touchdown against Dartmouth in yesterday's game at Memorial Field. The officials ruled the catch a touchdown, not the follow run. Curious yet?*
