6/10/2026 1:00:00 PM | Football
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – The Brown football game against Harvard at Pawtucket's Centreville Bank Stadium will be further elevated by being televised nationally on ESPN2, the Ivy League and ESPN announced on Wednesday. The showdown between the two Ivy League rivals is set to take place on Friday, September 25 at 7 p.m.
Brown's nationally televised appearance is part of the Ivy League's six-game national television package on ESPN networks, one of the premier television packages in the FCS. The League's comprehensive media rights agreement with ESPN, launched in 2018, delivers more than 1,400 Ivy League events annually on ESPN+, including at least 24 events each year on ESPN's linear platforms.
The Brown-Harvard game is the only league matchup this season that is scheduled to air on ESPN2, with the other five games all slated for ESPNU.
Season tickets for the 2026 season are on sale now, with single game tickets going on sale at a later date.
This marks the second consecutive season the Bears will play a game at Centreville Bank Stadium after defeating No. 8/10 Rhode Island 28-21 in the stadium's first-ever American football game last October.
