Capitol Cup Series

Some of you may know more about this than I. The series with William & Mary is 61-59-5 in their favor, right?

Do you have to remind me? I prefer to think that ur is 8-2 in the last ten games. I have erased from my memory the years from 1985 through 1999. Our Spiders were 2-13 against the Tribe of Griffins.

That glass half full. We walking them down slowly.

I believe your count is correct -- we'll be even in 2 years, 1 if we meet in the playoffs

According to Wikipedia and the game notes from the last game against W&M, it's currently 61-58-5 in favor of the Tribe.

3 years, we'll be even!

Ok so the facts matter, lol. If we do the UGA vs Auburn thing we can always not count the win in 1919. We played them three times that year. Seriously, we will even up this series when we celebrate our ten year championship game.

With what Yale did for 100 years of the Yale Bowl, and the 150th meeting of Lehigh-Lafayette in NYC, are we planning any promotion for this year's 125th?

I understand we are outsourcing the entire marketing of the game to William and Mary even though we are hosting the game.Not a bad idea.Maybe there will be some real hype generated by Tribe direct involvement.

Speaking of Yale vs Harvard 100th game which was played in 1983:A great event:
