Assuming Yale and Harvard win until The Game, I’m expecting the Crimson have a good chance at either a bye (10-0) or an at large bid if 9-1. Yale has been playing well and hosts The Game. Harvard should be ranked close to top 10 after a solid win over Dartmouth. Despite a light OOC schedule, Harvard has prevailed by 21+ every contest. Holy Cross having an off year isn’t Harvard’s fault. In 9 games, HC’s only double digit losses are to Harvard & Yale. Compare that to the Crimson leading 59-10 early in the third quarter.

The Game could be memorable if 9-0 Harvard visits 7-2Yale with the automatic bid on the line. I’m just thinking this Crimson squad has been so solid it could warrant an at large selection. Had Yale not lost to Dartmouth on a final second field goal, its lone loss would have been to currently 9-0 Lehigh.
