Harvard's new schedules through 2017

[bonarae]

Two common opponents: Rhody and Georgetown. In 2016 Holy Cross is back albeit only there and the series will pause indefinitely after that. The other two years have Lafayette has the third OOC opponent.

What other FCS opponents should Harvard get for 2018 and beyond?

I've been daring you guys to call up UNH and schedule a game for quite some time.

I have not had success.

As much as I like the Lehigh/Harvard games, This ^^^^^^!

The years of sacrifice in the arena's are long gone :-P

SFA vs Harvard home and home. It's an excuse to go to Boston.

Actually, Holy Cross and Harvard are only not playing in 2015 and 2017 through 2025:

I do think Harvard should schedule up more though....it's been a total waste of talent/good teams that they haven't in Murphy's tenure.

Harvard should play UND, a nice H/H would be great. We have a hockey connection with the Ivy League Schools, so why not a football one. UND has never faced an Ivy League opponent.

Yes bonarae, you may have missed the HC thread... it seems that the Saders and Crimson are locked in annually from 2017 through 2025.

Harvard definitely needs to challenge itself... I mean, Penn has Villanova every year, and had W&M last year. If Penn can do it...

Talk about a total snoozefest with these schedules. I would be irate if I was a Harvard alum, having to watch my school play the same 10-12 teams year after year after year.

In 20 years at Harvard, Tim Murphy has scheduled a grand total of nine non-conference opponents, five of these teams Harvard has played four or fewer times.

More often than not, Harvard's slate has been the seven Ivy League games, along with Holy Cross (19 times), Lafayette (14 times) and Lehigh (nine times).

The other games: Bucknell (five), Colgate (four), Fordham (two), Northeastern (four), San Diego (two), and Georgetown (one).

I DARE you, Tim Murphy, to grow a pair and play Maine or New Hampshire.

Harvard has had some incredibly talented teams over the years, and it's a real shame they never challenged themselves against some much stiffer competition.
