With Ivy League foe Cornell slated for October 7, this Sunday seems to be the ideal time for the Crimson to find its scoring touch. While a loss will not derail Harvard from reaching its goal of winning an Ivy League championship and making it to the NCAA tournament, a win can certainly propel them in the right direction.
Sunday's match is first about momentum and regional ranking, and secondly about intra-city rivalry.
But for both Boston College and Harvard, two resurgent teams flowing with young talent, the chance to bolster their own post-season hopes at the expense of each other makes the stakes just a little bit higher.
