In a dramatic shift, the Ivy League's football teams are now going to be able to compete for FCS football national championships, marking a significant change in their postseason eligibility.
The genesis for the change for the Ivy League to play in FCS playoffs came via a proposal from Ivy League student athletes, reflecting a growing desire for more competitive opportunities.
Football had loomed as the only sport that Ivy League teams could not compete for NCAA national championships in, highlighting a long-standing gap in the league's athletic offerings.
The Ivy League has confirmed with the NCAA that the league's winner will get an automatic bid to the FCS playoffs starting in 2025, enhancing their competitive landscape.
