I know that FAMU hosted it once but can't think of any other teams. I want to say it was on an FCS campus for either Lehigh-Lafayette or Harvard-Yale but I'm not sure.

They were at Penn in 2002 or something. I think they also hosted from DIII Williams College.

Penn hosted it about 8 years ago iirc.

November 16th, 2002 at Pennsylvania (hosting Harvard)

ALMOST hosted at Grambling (November 26th, 2005), but moved to Houston due to Hurricane Katrina

I'll do a solid to LFN and suggest that they go to the 150th meeting of Lafayette and Lehigh

I think there's a reasonable chance that it happens!

Bayou Classic (Southern & Grambling) hosted from Houston in 2005, but because it was raining the show was moved indoors an no fans attended
the games was moved to Houston from New Orleans because of hurricane Katrina

I don't know if it helps or hurts that the 150th is at Yankee Stadium rather than at Lafayette, but they better show up for a game of that significance. Even if it means that the senile Lee Corso dons the Pards' mascot head.

Am I mistaken in thinking Lehigh or Lafayette hosted a few years ago?

LU-LC was the first college football game broadcasted on ESPN2. That happened in 1993. No Game Day however....
