Pitarresi: Make a date for Colgate-Holy Cross
Put this on your calendar:
Holy Cross at Colgate, 1 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 22.
That game will decide the Patriot League football championship and determine whether Colgate’s Red Raiders take another trip to the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision playoffs.
Colgate is undefeated in the league. Should Holy Cross defeats Lafayette Saturday – not a given by any means – both teams will go into the game undefeated in the league with the title at stake. If Lafayette defeats Holy Cross, and Holy Cross defeats Colgate, and Lafayette defeats Lehigh in their ancient rivalry the same day, there will be a mess with three teams having one loss.
I’m not sure how they’ll resolve that deadlock if it occurs, but the Raiders can remove all doubt by defeating the Crusaders.
Andy Kerr Stadium, although in late November it can be a little, shall we say, cool. Dress warmly. It will be a great game.
