Harvard–Yale Football Rivalry
The Harvard–Yale football rivalry is renewed annually with The Game, an American college football match between the Harvard Crimson football team of Harvard University and the Yale Bulldogs football team of Yale University.

Some years, the rivalry carries the additional significance of deciding the Ivy League championship.
