Having waited 63 years for an Ivy League football title, Columbia had to stand by for another 40 minutes. The Lions had beaten Cornell 17-9 but needed a Harvard loss against Yale to secure a share of first place on the season's final day.

Alabama’s loss to Oklahoma, Mississippi’s setback in the Swamp and Texas A&M’s four-overtime defeat to Auburn probably ruined each team’s chances of reaching the playoff.
