Holy Harvard. While much of the noise surrounded the game between Ohio State and Michigan on Saturday, I was tuned into a big match-up in the Ivy League, as ???The Game??? was taking place between Harvard and Yale in New Haven, Connecticut. The 124th game between the academic powers had a lot at stake, as both the Bulldogs and Crimson entered the contest a perfect 6-0 in league play. In just the fourth meeting between undefeated Ivy teams in the final week of the season, Harvard took it to the hometown Yalies, 37-6, and claimed the Ivy League crown. I???m sure we???ll get more details later in the week from Harvard senior and Double-A Zone blogger Carl Ehrlich.

Tourney football is here. Bowl season is around the corner, but if you???re like me and like tournament football, there???s a ton of action to follow across the three divisions. The Division II and III football championships are currently underway, and the Football Championship Subdivision bracket was released this weekend. At 11-0 Northern Iowa is the top-seeded squad in the bracket, while McNeese State and Montana are also perfect this season. Appalachian State, which has won the last two national titles and upset Michigan early in the season, will play James Madison in the first round. Although it seems that every football fan wants a playoff system to replace the bowl games, there are some out there who enjoy the way things are set up.

Carolina wins. It???s a been a big week for Double-A Zone bloggers, as North Carolina???s Dani Forword beat Penn State on Sunday, 3-0, to claim the Division I field hockey championship. Dani scored in the second half for the Tar Heels, who finished the season perfect at 24-0.

Tough break. Dennis Dixon reinjured his torn ACL on Thursday night, and the Oregon senior quarterback is out for the rest of the season. After Dixon left the game, the No. 2 Ducks went on to lose to Arizona, effectively spoiling their chances at a national championship. The Heisman front runner before Thursday???s game, Dixon???s shot at the prestigious award also went down with his left knee. While this certainly is an unfortunate turn of events for Dixon, injuries are part of the game. In July, we discussed Dixon???s summer job, which pays him decent money for his commitment to the Atlanta Braves franchise. Oregon coach Mike Bellotti wasn???t pleased when Dixon signed with the Braves, but I wonder what he thinks now. If Dixon had suffered a career-ending injury, at least he would have had some money to fall back on.
