Lehigh’s bowl game comes next weekend, of course, as they take on Lafayette in the 152nd meeting of The Rivarly in Easton. After that bowl game, though, comes the FCS playoffs, and until the FCS Playoff Bracket is announced on Sunday at 11:00 AM after the Lafayette game, we don’t know where, or when, Lehigh will play their playoff game.
Don’t fret, football fans. LFN is here with a warm cup of chicken noodle soup, a nice grilled cheese sandwich with the crusts cut off, and a schedule, complete with links, involving the most important FCS games on the schedule that will impact Lehigh’s postseason schedule the most.
Sit back. Enjoy your soup. LFN’s here to help you for this Saturday.

No college football coach wants to face a team boxed in a corner.
In that way, Harvard was stepping into a purple hornet’s nest last weekend when the nationally-ranked Crimson came to play the wounded Crusaders.
After their injury-riddled team failed to hold onto a win against Bucknell, ultimately falling 21-20, Tom Gilmore‘s team needed to make a stand against a really good football team in order to keep their season from a limp to the finish.
Even if they didn’t win, they had to keep things close – few pundits gave Holy Cross much of a chance against the better bankrolled, historically dominant Harvard team that hadn’t lost a road game a non-conference game in their last sixteen tries.
Cornered like rats, Holy Cross responded in a big way. Six sacks and a second-half shutout later, the Crusaders would notch their first win over a nationally-ranked opponent since 2009, thus turning things around at the exact right time for them and the exact wrong time for Lehigh.
