Colgate/Princeton. I went to the 'gate and the Tigers were my childhood team back when they ran the Single Wing with backs such as Sachs, Iacavazzi, Landeck and later Bijorklund. Princeton never should have given it up - the program has been up and down ever since.

You gotta tell us where the games are being played. For instance, a game at Franklin Field followed by cheesesteaks is phenomenal (looking forward to it on Sept 24th), but a trip to Lewisburg leaves something to be desired (though I'll be doing that this year, as well).

I vote Dartmouth/Yale. Especially if it in the Yale Bowl.

Princeton always plays us tough, but on paper Bucknell/Penn might be the most intriguing... both are teams that might have what it takes to win their conferences, but there are a lot of question marks...

Have a friend who is a Colgate alum and her father is a Princeton grad. And I'd like to see the stadium at Princeton. I've been to Yale Bowl a couple times already and will have already seen Dartmouth at UNH. No ties to either Bucknell or Penn. Zero interest in Iona or St. Peter's. Bad enough that Iona is at UNH in November.

Princeton's stadium is terrific. Way too large for them, of course, but an excellent design. A lot of I-A's make do with a lot worse.

There's only one place to be on Oct. 8 and that's in Williamsburg. Our first big A-10 matchup of the year between the Tribe and the Wildcats of New Hampshire. Rematch of last years 9-7 mudwrestling match played in Durham during a monsoon.

Ditto,(though this will be my first trip to Lewisburg).

I'd pick Bucknell-Penn. Bucknell runs a fun offense (the spread option) and also had some of the wildest finishes of any team in I-AA last year. They also should be in the thinck of the Patriot League race. Penn has great tradition, plays in a cool, old stadium (Franklin Field) and should make this a very competitive game.

I'll be at the Appalachian State-Furman game that day, wondering if I'll see the Mountaineers win another one-point game against Bobby Lamb and the Paladins (as the last three have been).

What? Who said anything about THE A-10 matchup of the year? Read the post again.

UMASS/northeastern. Classic A10 grudge match between 2 intrastate rivals.

Surprising that Lehigh Nation would pose that question. I'll be heading to Lehigh to watch Holy Cross take on the Brown and White. I'm looking for a hard-fought game and a Holy Cross upset win that will tell the Patriot League that Holy Cross is back!

Actually a trip to Lewisburg in early October is beautiful. A pastoral setting to be sure, and a trip through the Kittatinny Ridge with the leaves turning.
