Subject: Week 7 thoughts and Predictions Author: Ivy wanna be [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 09:25:04 10/30/25 Thu Last week I was 3-1 for the season 25 -9 on straight up game competition. Brown had a tough loss against Cornell. They’ve done a very good job. They just need to close the game out , when needed. Our Friday game of the week is being played in Philadelphia. Penn is a better team than what the score was against Yale. I personally thought that game was going to be a lot closer. Yales defense is a strong unit. The offense definitely is getting stronger every week. Dante Reno, is getting more comfortable, each week. Brown 17 at Penn 28 with a 66% chance for the win. Massey has game as Penn 31 Brown 24 The Game of the week in Cambridge is Dartmouth a team playing possessed from the start against Columbia.Dartmouth played a complete game against the overwhelmed Lions. Harvard playing in the friendly confines of the Harvard Stadium. Seems to be having a season to remember. Dartmouth 24 at Harvard 38 with a 75% chance for the win. Massey has Dartmouth 21 Harvard 31 Princeton a team that is trying for more consistency, see if they can get it together,The Big Red, another team that could be dangerous . With a great comeback OT win against Brown. Cornell 28 Princeton 24 with a 57% chance for the Tigers Massey has Princeton 27 Cornell 24 Columbia comes to Yale after a devastating loss to the Big Green for a 1-6 record They are an injury plagued team. But that is football. Yale on the other hand seems to be in stride for the stretch. Yale 45 Columbia 14. With a 93% chance for the win Massey has Yale 30 Columbia 10 Good Luck to all [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: Week 7 thoughts and Predictions Author: Fear the Quaker [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 20:48:04 10/30/25 Thu Yale too much for Columbia Cornell continues to build and edges Princeton Dartmouth qb runs over Harvard and leads them to a victory Penn over Brown. The penalties must stop or It will be a mess.

[> Subject: Re: Week 7 thoughts and Predictions Author: RedWin [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 12:34:30 10/31/25 Fri Yale knocks off Columbia Harvard beats Dartmouth Penn gets by Brown Cornell steals one from Princeton Just to add..........I think Harvard goes 10-0 and represents the Ivy League in the FCS playoffs, as long as they don't read their press clippings.

[> [> Subject: Re: Week 7 thoughts and Predictions Author: Ivy wanna be [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 23:11:59 10/31/25 Fri That was a good game. Couple plays here and there it may have been a different result. I really dislike the officiating in the Ivy League.

[> Subject: Re: Week 7 thoughts and Predictions Author: Bob S [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 09:16:18 11/01/25 Sat I thought the officiating in the Penn-Brown was some of the worst I have seen this year. When Erice Frede and Jack Ford are openly questioning calls that is not a good sign.

[> [> Subject: Re: Week 7 thoughts and Predictions Author: Woodsman [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 15:19:21 11/01/25 Sat I agree. Some of the worst officiating I’ve seen in the league and it seemed to favor Penn by a wide margin. The offensive pass interference on Brown’s second TD was atrocious.

[> Subject: Re: Week 7 thoughts and Predictions Author: Sr Punter [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 13:16:19 11/01/25 Sat I'm not objective, but they did seem to me to favor one side.

[> [> Subject: Penn and Brown game Author: Brownie [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 18:54:23 11/01/25 Sat Terrible officiating in the game. I hope the Ivy League office reviews their calls.

[> [> [> Subject: Yale Game , say what you will Author: Ivy wanna be [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 07:39:56 11/02/25 Sun Say what you will about Reno , The man doesn’t run up the score on opponents. Case in point. Yales offense had the ball with 7:04 remaining. They controlled the ball for the remainder of the game. Pitsenberger, to the ball off of right tackle headed for touchdown. The man stopped himself at the 1 yard line and took a knee. This isn’t an isolated case. This is something that he has done on a consistent basis. I know a lot of people write a lot of things about this man. But he is classy by doing that one thing. In the years since that incident of not letting Buddy Teevens having a kicking tee. Tony Reno,has matured to being a better man.

[> [> [> [> Subject: Re: Yale Game , say what you will Author: Know-it-all [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 09:16:57 11/02/25 Sun Penn showed the same restraint in the Brown game on Friday. Bill Teirney and Princeton lacrosse never pushed the score above 19 goals. Always the mark of a class coach/program.

[> Subject: Re: Week 7 thoughts and Predictions Author: Eli1143770312 [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 17:40:47 11/02/25 Sun Two thoughts on Pitsenberger taking a knee rather than scoring untouched with just over two minutes to go: - it was a smart play in terms of winning the game. It gave Yale a first and goal at the half hard line, with the Lions out of timeouts. After the two minute timeout, Yale could take victory formation snaps, assuring themselves of the win with no chance of giving Columbia the ball. Obviously Yale would have had a 21 point lead if he’d scored but the game wouldn’t have been done. - will this be the right decision with Ivy teams eligible for at-large playoff slots along with the guaranteed slot for the champion? I don’t think Yale gets an at-large slot in any case but Ivy coaches will need to think about running up the score in the future, given the relevance of polls.
