Nov. 22 (Bloomberg) -- Harvard University rallied for two fourth-quarter touchdowns to defeat Yale University 14-10 and finish second to the University of Pennsylvania in college football’s Ivy League.

Collier Winters threw two scoring passes in the final 6:46 yesterday at the Yale Bowl in New Haven, Connecticut, as Harvard (7-3, 6-1 Ivy League) erased a 10-0 deficit. The win was the Crimson’s eighth in the past nine games against the Bulldogs.

Harvard finished the season behind Penn, which routed Cornell 34-0, in the Ivy League. Harvard needed to win and have Penn lose to share the league title with the Quakers.

Winter connected with Matt Luft for a 41-yard touchdown pass to pull Harvard within 10-7. He then threw a game-winning 32-yard touchdown pass to Chris Lorditch with 1:32 left after Yale (4-6, 2-5) failed on a fake punt on 4th-and-22 from its own 25-yard line.

The rivalry, known simply as “The Game” that spans 126 meetings, provokes feelings from Wall Street to the current occupant of the White House, as U.S. President Barack Obama graduated from Harvard Law School in 1991. Yale leads the overall series 65-52-8.
