100th Game Against Rhode Island Highlights 2015 Brown Football Schedule
Providence, R.I. - Brown’s 137th season of intercollegiate football will feature the 100th game against the University of Rhode Island with the two Ocean State teams playing for the Governor’s Cup under the lights at Brown Stadium on October 3.
The Bears kick-off their season at home against Bryant on September 19 in the second meeting against the Bulldogs.

One of the cooler, under-the-radar stories of the upcoming FCS campaign. The only disappointing thing about this is that it couldn't be played in a neutral venue, like how Lehigh vs. Lafayette was played in Yankee Stadium for the 150th meeting.

Wow, the first 16 games played in this series, URI was shutout each time. That has to be some kind of record.

They should have used URI's Meade Stadium; it is like a neutral venue.

Yale got 18 over Trinity.

Dartmouth won the first 16 games played against UNH; but I think the current series record is UNH 19, Darthmouth 17 with 1 Tie. I guess I'd prefer winning the most recent 16 rather than the first 16.

I agree with what you said about recent games.

But those aforementioned Yale victories were shutouts. :)

I guess I missed the fine print on this thread. When not playing UNH, I like to see Dartmouth win. So I'm not really gloating.

I see what you did there.... I was thinking more of Fenway. Though it would take it out of Rhode Island.
