2011 Ivy League Football on VERSUS Schedule Announced
PHILADELPHIA and PRINCETON,
N.J. -- Ivy League football will be once again featured on VERSUS
as the League Office announced the five-game schedule on the
network for the 2011 season.
The 2011 schedule expands to five games, up from the three Ivy
football games VERSUS televised during the 2010 season.
The 2011 Ivy League football schedule on VERSUS opens Saturday,
Sept. 24, with Yale hosting Cornell in a Noon kickoff from the Yale
Bowl. Two-time defending champion Penn makes its first of
three-straight appearances, beginning on Saturday, Oct. 15, on the
road at Columbia for the Lions' homecoming in the only 3:30 p.m.
start on the slate. The Quakers welcome Yale to Franklin Field on
Saturday, Oct. 22, and, then three weeks later, travel to Harvard
on Saturday, Nov. 12, in games set for Noon kickoffs. The 128th
edition of "The Game," Harvard at Yale, is also set for a Noon
start on Saturday, Nov. 19, to close out the schedule.
The five-game slate marks the fourth-consecutive year Ivy League
football airs on VERSUS as the network has televised 12 Ivy
matchups featuring all eight schools over the past three
seasons.
"We are very appreciative of the relationship and support VERSUS
has shown for the Ivy League and Ivy League football," said Ivy
League Executive Director Robin Harris. "Our
League and our member institutions are fortunate to have a
broadcast partner in VERSUS to showcase Ivy League football
nationally to our passionate alumni and fans."
