Harvard is loaded at RB, WR and QB (at least running QB).
Not sure about OL and DL though.
My favorite RB Isaiah Abbey ran for 25 yards on 6 carries late in the game. This 225lb bruiser somehow is only 4th on the depth chart. I'd love to see more oh him, but he's buried behind McLaughlin, Bascon and Frederick. Don't be surprised if this junior ends up a stud elsewhere. He ran over, through and around Howard last year for 120 yards on 16 carries for 3 TD's, then missed the remainder of the season.

Hopefully, he gets utilized enough so he finishes here through his senior year. McLaughlin and Bascon are seniors, so next year it's Abbey and Frederick.

If you're right on just one of your first two picks, I will be very surprised.

Happy, but very surprised.

My Dad went to Cornell, so some bias there. Nobody expected them to beat Yale last year. Yale showed little defense against Holy Cross.

Brown seems to be able to score so you never know.

Upsets are more fun.

I went to the Penn opener against Delaware. Penn can move the ball. Running attack is potent. The pass rush was poor and that helped Delaware. They had all day to throw, especially in the 3rd quarter.

I am skeptical of Columbia because I am not sure Lafayette is that good but great start for them. The old saying that
a new coach is worth 6-points was more than true.

Am afraid Yale will run all over Cornell. Cornell's d-line got trampled by Colgate.

Probably. Cornell has one of the smallest DL in the Ivy League this season. That was a continual issue under Archer. Give Swanstrom some time bring in his own recruits.

I may be wrong, but from following along on twitter it would appear that while Columbia was able to bring back most of those eligible for a fifth year, many of those players at Cornell chose to grad transfer
