Harvard Crimson football has shaped college Saturdays since 1873 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. One of the sport’s original powers, Harvard claims national championships in 1875 and 1919 among others, and has stacked up Ivy League titles in the modern era under longtime coach Tim Murphy, including 2013, 2014 and 2015. Alumni like quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and All-Pro center Matt Birk carry the program’s reputation for smart, tough play well beyond the Yard.

Game day centers on Harvard Stadium, a 1903 concrete landmark and National Historic Landmark with sightlines that put fans close to every snap. The student section and the Harvard University Band keep “Ten Thousand Men of Harvard” pulsing, while tailgating around Soldiers Field turns The Game with Yale and the annual clash with Princeton into can’t-miss traditions. Join the Crimson and make your next Saturday unforgettable.
