I don't get why Harvard isn't ranked yet

Harvard is the only undefeated team in the Ivy League.
I know what most of you are going to say, "Harvard's schedule is a joke compared to my team and so therefore they suck."
But Harvard plays a schedule comparative to its size, number of players, the amount of money put into its athletic department, and so forth. Sure, if Ole Miss played Harvard's schedule they would be undefeated and if Harvard played Ole Miss' schedule then they would lose most of the games, and if Harvard played Ole Miss, then, except in the case of a miracle, would lose. But still they need to do something about this.
And Marshall plays just as shitty a schedule as Harvard does and they are ranked above a bunch of SEC teams.
Thoughts?

Harvard not being an FBS 1 school might be hurting their chances. Also, MSB.

Seems like that would have been a dead give away.

I want to play an Ivy League school now; has an SEC school ever done this?

My Brother played Ivy League ball at Penn and was always pissed at the rule that didn't allow league members to compete in the FCS playoffs.
Thought it was pretty hypocritical since they allow BB teams to compete in the NCAA tourney

Say what you will about Harvard's schedule... it's tougher than FSU's.

Pretty sure Harvard could beat LSU

Have you ever watched the Ivy League? They are, uh, undersized
It's a different level

Nothing like seeing a 170 pound tailback get blown up by a 300lb d lineman.

True fact: Harvard has as many wins over ranked teams as FSU.

I've always wanted to see an Ivy League team play someone from the SEC. Just to see how ugly it would be on the lines.
