It's now pretty simple. If Penn and Harvard win on Saturday they will join Princeton and Yale in the first four-way tie in Ivy League football history.
Princeton and Yale can each win the outright championship, they can tie for the title or there can be that four-way tie. What there can't be is a three-way tie.
Green Alert Take: The Ivy League schedule-makers lucked out this year with the top four teams playing a two-week round robin of sorts for the title. The shame is that they aren't all playing Saturday at the same time.
Green Alert Take II: The final game on the schedule is critical in the standings as well. It's a head-to-head matchup between Dartmouth and Brown to avoid finishing in the Ivy League basement. Did anyone see that coming prior to the start of the season? ? ?

EXTRA POINT
Mrs. BGA and I grabbed breakfast at a classic upstate New York '50s diner before heading back to the Upper Valley and the waitress (they weren't servers in the 1950s ;-) asked if we wanted Log Cabin type syrup or maple syrup. We chose the latter, of course, and were pleased there was no surcharge for the real thing.
Some years ago we had breakfast here in Vermont and were amused to learn real maple syrup was standard with pancakes, waffles or French toast and the was an extra charge for the fake stuff. Leave it to Vermont!
