Yale vs. Harvard from Harvard Stadium in Boston. Yale has a shot at sharing the Ivy League title (with the Cantabs, grrrr) in a couple of different scenarios:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>1. If Yale wins and Brown falls, the Elis, Crimson and Bears would be tied for first. Penn could share the crown with a win.<\/p>\n<p>2. If Harvard and Brown win, both schools share the title at 6-1. Yale could share second if Penn loses.<\/p>\n<p>3. If Yale and Brown win, the Bears have the outright title.<\/p>\n<p>4. If Harvard wins and Brown goes down, the Cantabs have the outright championship.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I like that the <a href=\"http:\/\/yalebulldogs.cstv.com\/sports\/m-footbl\/spec-rel\/111708aaa.html\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">official Yale release<\/span><\/a> calls Harvard, the Cantabs.<\/p>\n<p><center><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.yurasko.net\/football\/graphics\/pennstatehelmetleft.gif\"> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.yurasko.net\/football\/graphics\/Michigan_St.gif\"><\/center><br \/>In the second part of the doubleheader, the Nittany Lions win at least a share of the Big11Ten title and a likely Rose Bowl invitation with a victory over Michigan State. If Michigan upsets Ohio State (which some misguided souls in flyover country call &#8220;The Game&#8221;) earlier in the day, Penn State can win the title outright. I have <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yurasko.net\/wfy\/2008\/11\/penn-state-vs-michigan-state-prediction.html\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">predicted a Penn State victory<\/span><\/a>, but I expect it to be close.
