Football schedule change: Starting in 2027, the Ivy League will begin the season a week earlier and implement a bye week for teams. Hopefully that bye week turns into an 11th game in the future.

Hopefully this bodes well for an earlier hockey season start. I like to dream.

Hopefully this bodes well for a Cornell hockey season that lasts through the second weekend of April.

Two of Cornell's non-league opponents Colgate and 11th ranked Lehigh both started the season with wins.  Lehigh looks like a strong team as expected, and Colgate had a running back rush for over 200 yds in their win.

The back played at my local hs. Went to UConn for a year or two of not seeing the field before transferring.

With start that Lehigh and Colgate are off to, Cornell could unfortunately find themselves with a 1-4 record at the half season mark.

I really hope that I am proved wrong, but they have a brutal early season schedule, and one of the toughest non-Ivy schedule in the Ivy League.

TBH I wish they'd drop the non-Ivy games and just play 7.

Honestly, yeah. What is the point of over-investing and over competing? I guess now that the Ivy gets an auto bid to the FCS tournament, there is something beyond to play for, but, really, they only have to play in conference to go to the little dance.
