Yale-Lafayette gameday

Dartmouth at Yale
When: Today, noon
Where: Yale Bowl, New Haven
Records: Lafayette 3-2 (1-0 Patriot League); Yale 1-3 (0-2 Ivy League)
Radio: WELI 960 AM
Internet: yalebulldogs.com, 960WELI.com and ESPN3.com
Series history: Yale leads 7-2.
Last meeting: Yale won 28-19 last season.
What to look for: The Leopards have been preparing two quarterbacks all week in Andrew Shoop and Zach Zweizig. Shoop missed last week’s game with concussion symptoms and will be the starter if he’s able to play. Lafayette has more speed at wide receiver than any other team Yale has faced. Running backs Vaughn Hebron and Ross Scheurman should continue to split carries. The Bulldogs will have to protect the ball against a Lafayette defense that has thrived on forcing turnovers. Look for the Leopards to stack the box. Yale's rushing attack will get a boost with Tyler Varga back in the lineup.     
Prediction: Yale 24, Lafayette 21
