So stupid dude.
Literally every other sport sponsored by the Ivy League plays a postseason. Now football joins the 1980s.

They used to play in big time bowl games, including the Rose. If anything, this reverts back to their roots.

Is considered to be the sluttiest of the Ivies. I used to date a Cornell grad and I joined the Mile High Club on her dad's Learjet.

quote:I seem to remember hearing a while back that the argument for not doing football had something to do with finals or something like that. Probably wrong/misremembering though because I think they still do baseball/track/etc. which also conflict.
