Green Alert Take: Sorry, but while the Penn-Yale game is big, for the self-annointed Czar to call it the best matchup of the weekend is absurd. After what happened in the Harvard-Princeton game last fall there's no bigger game than the one being played tonight in Harvard Stadium.

The Analyst site has updated its Watch Lists for individual postseason awards and five Ivy Leaguers get a mention.

Added to the Watch List for the Buck Buchanan as the defensive player of the year in the FCS is Harvard lineman Thor Griffith.
