Harvard 'eyeing the throne'

We like to think we're pretty clever at The Buzz. Even if we can't come up with 'Watch the Throne' on our own, at least we catch on quickly and tag every piece of football coverage with it. Clever, huh?

I guess The Harvard Crimson caught on, too (or they are much more clever than we thought), and in their football preview today headlined a story 'Eyeing the Throne.' Do note the photo shoot and the video about Collier Winters' lettuce flow.

With a few minor word-changes (replace "second" with "first," "seventy percent" with "85 percent," and of course, "Harvard" with "Penn"), Scott A. Sherman's lede could easily run in the DP instead of the Crimson.

For most programs, back-to-back second-place finishes might be good enough. Most squads would be thrilled by a two-year stretch in which it won seventy percent of its games.
But not Harvard.

Students, stop by the Penn Park picnic on before tomorrow's 6 p.m. kickoff. Non-students, today's your last day to take advantage of this Groupon deal. And if you can't make it to Philadelphia (or are stuck in Van Pelt), check it out on ESPN3.com.
