Which Columbia Lions games are worth watching in 2026?
Columbia opens with a challenging non-conference test at home against Lafayette, followed by a road trip to Georgetown, before Ivy League play begins with a home date against Princeton on October 3. Head coach Jon Poppe enters year three looking to build on a 2-8 season, with the home finale against Cornell on November 21 closing out the campaign.
The stretch from late October through mid-November is the toughest test on the schedule, with home games against Dartmouth and Yale sandwiched around road trips to Harvard and Brown — four of the Ivy League's most tradition-rich programs.
