The Ivy League football schedule has been modified to enhance the excitement of the final weekend of the season, with historic regional rivalries closing the seasons for all eight schools.
Beginning with the Fall 2018 season, the schedule will feature exciting regional matchups – Brown-Dartmouth, Columbia-Cornell, Penn-Princeton – on the final weekend of play along with Harvard-Yale.
“The storied-tradition of Ivy League regional rivalries has always been of great importance to our alumni, fans and teams,” said Ivy League Executive Director Robin Harris. “We look forward to a fantastic final weekend of the Ivy football season, with these rivalry games adding to the excitement of the Ivy League title race.”Green Alert Take: I don't want to get too political on you but, holy moly, that there is some serious, D.C.-level spin.

Senior quarterback Jack Heneghan and junior linebacker Jack Traynor are among the 10 athletes Dartmouth is recognizing as Academic All-Ivy for the fall.According to the Dartmouth release, Heneghan is an economics major with a 3.79 GPA while Traynor is an engineering major with a 3.73 GPA. (LINK)
Green Alert Take: Gotta think Dartmouth is going to take all the Jacks it can get given what Heneghan and Traynor have meant on the field and in the classroom.
