Founded in 1872 in New Haven, Connecticut, Yale Bulldogs football helped shape the sport itself.

Every fall, The Game against Harvard anchors the calendar, a rivalry that turns campus conversations and family traditions into bragging rights for another year.

Home Saturdays unfold at the historic Yale Bowl, opened in 1914 and celebrated for its sweeping sightlines and amphitheater feel. Fans stream in from tailgates ringing the stadium, sing along to Down the Field, and follow mascot Handsome Dan as the team charges onto the grass. It is classic college football energy with Yale Blue flair, perfect for making new memories.
