Rivals:
– These two teams have met every season, except one, since 1893. It is the 5th-most played college football rivalry of all time. Since 1995, the winner of the rivalry has won the Trustee's Cup, which Penn has won 15 times.
– A large modern day rival as almost every meeting between the two teams has major Ivy League Championship connotations. College Gameday visited this rivalry in 2002 when Penn beat Harvard 44-9. Half of all Ivy League losses that Harvard has suffered since 2007 has been at the hands of Penn.
– Penn's biggest non-Ivy rival. These teams had fierce battles in the late 1800's and have split the latest 15 games 8 to 7 wins. The two teams don't play every year but it is intense.
