Columbia Lions Football Tickets

Celebrate one of America’s oldest teams with Columbia Lions Football tickets. The Lions play for Columbia University in New York City and competed in the first interstate college football game in history against Rutgers in 1870. The Lions play Division I football as part of the FCS and are one of the few members of the illustrious Ivy League conference. Columbia fielded its first football team in the late 19th century, though the Lions did not initially meet with success. By the turn of the 20th century, however, the program had become one of the premier teams in the sport.

The turnaround saw the Lions go undefeated in their 1915 season, winning the Rose Bowl against Stanford in 1933. Though they experienced a significant slump in the ’80s, the Lions maintained an impressive win streak against rivals Cornell and Fordham. Cornell and Columbia in particular have one of the longest-standing rivalries in college football, having played more than 100 times since 1889.

The Lions are known for developing many players who have gone on to make history. Sid Luckman is the most notable of these, a quarterback for the Chicago Bears and a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The Lions also boast Lou Gehrig as a former player, though he is now known most of all for his accomplishments in baseball.
