The forecast calls for 67 degrees with just a two-percent chance of rain today when Dartmouth and Penn kick off Ivy League play at 1 p.m.
The weekend's action began last night in a nationally televised game from Princeton:
Princeton 10, Columbia 7
John Volker's one-yard plunge on fourth-and-one with just over two minutes remaining capped a remarkable 20-play, 81-yard drive that consumed more than 10 minutes and lifted the Tigers (2-1, 1-0 Ivy) to a come-from-behind victory.
The short touchdown run was one of three fourth-down conversions on the drive by Princeton, which also converted two third-and-sevens.
Needing a field goal to force overtime and a TD to win, Columbia (1-2, 0-1 ivy) took over and converted a fourth-and-13 and a fourth-and-10 only to have a sack and fumble from Princeton 40 end the Lions' chances.
Blake Stenstrom was 26-of-43 for 191 yards on the day for Princeton while Columbia quarterback Caden Bell struggled in the rain, going 11-for-26 for 71 yards. The teams combined for 12 punts.
Attendance at Princeton Stadium was 5,843.

The Louisville football team improved to 5-0 last night with a 13-10 win at 3-2 North Carolina State. With John Paul Flores a reserve offensive lineman for the Cards, a handful of former Big Green players showed up to support him. (Thanks for the photo!)
