Harvard football has shown remarkable dominance this season, winning all seven games by at least three touchdowns. Their strong performance was recognized Monday as the Crimson earned the No. 9 spot in the latest Stats Perform FCS Top 25 rankings— the highest ranking in the program’s history.
Additionally, Harvard secured the 13th position in the AFCA FCS Coaches’ Poll, marking their best standing in that poll since 2011. These rises followed a convincing 31-10 victory over Dartmouth on Saturday, improving Harvard’s record to an undefeated 7-0.
This year is notable as Ivy League teams are eligible for the FCS playoffs for the first time, adding importance to Harvard’s high ranking.
The Crimson aim to extend their winning streak to eight games on the road against Columbia on Friday night.
