Amherst Squares Off Against Williams in First Round of ‘Schooled: NESN’s College Face Off’

One of the oldest and most-storied rivalries in college sports writes another chapter when Amherst and Williams face off in the first round of Schooled: NESN's College Face Off.

More than just a little familiar with each other, these two schools routinely butt heads in the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) and their rivalry in football — known as the Biggest Little Game in America — dates back to 1884. Williams leads that series 71-50-5, but can that success carry over to Schooled?

Amherst will be looking to erase that edge while also representing for their cross-town university which is not participating in this competition.

Be sure to tune in to NESN on Nov. 6 at 7 p.m. to catch all of the action between the bitter rivals.
