Subject: Title game this Saturday? Author: voy vey [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10:29:19 10/29/24 Tue In reply to: Ivy Inquisitor 's message, "State Of The League" on 14:31:22 10/28/24 Mon Looking at Massey Ratings' projections for all remaining games, IF (that's a massive 'if') all of the favored teams were to win, the final standings would look like this: 1-Harvard/Dartmouth 6-1 3-Yale/Columbia 4-3 5-Princeton 3-4 6-Penn/Brown 2-5 8-Cornell 1-6 It's practically a guarantee that that won't happen, but it's an interesting exercise and seems to back up Moonbear's "Harvard & Dartmouth then everyone else" assertion. Not surprisingly, it also seems to imply that we might look back at this coming Saturday's game in Hanover as the game that ultimately determines the title.

[> [> Subject: Further clarification Author: Ivy Inquisitor [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 13:19:00 10/29/24 Tue Moon Bear and Voy Vey: I appreciate getting your thoughts this weekend’s games. To further clarify this weekend the CFSL champion game will be set. Army & Cornell are tied for first in the CSFL North and Penn & Navy in the South. These division co-leaders will play each other next. As for Ivy conventional football it’s premature to proclaim a league champion. If Columbia, Harvard and Brown were to fall (Which I’m predicting) that will give each two conference losses.Thus to my theory they’d be unofficially eliminated from contention. If The Big Green can handle Harvard and next Week Columbia , then they’ve clinched at worse a share of the championship. Going back to my two loss assumption, a two league loss champion has occurred only three times: 1963, 1982 and 2023. If The Crimson and Lions come out on top then we might get that topsy- turvy finish down the stretch. If this weekend’s games continue to go as expected, there’s still a possibility of Brown and Cornell making some noise down the stretch. Don’t forget about Yale because they get very dangerous come November. Columbia is back to its normal self as regular winner and a distant dark horse contender. Penn and Princeton’s desperation to avoid a losing season may make them dangerous. The final month should be fun. I love Ivy League Football. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
