BRONX, N.Y. -  The Fordham University Football Rams continue their 2025 schedule, Fordham's 125th varsity season, and open Patriot League play by traveling to Hamilton, N.Y. to face the Colgate University Raiders at Kerr Stadium on Saturday, September 13, at 3:30 p.m.
 
The game will be streamed live on ESPN+ with Eric Malanoski (p-b-p), Terry Dow (analyst), and Faith Cain (sidelines) announcing and broadcast live on WFUV (90.7 FM) and the WFUV YouTube channel with Chris Carrino (p-b-p) and Brendan Shorey (analyst) handling the announcing chores.
 
Fordham enters the game with an 0-3 record and is coming off a 41-18 loss at Stony Brook University last Saturday while Colgate is also 0-3 on the season following a 66-24 loss at Syracuse last Friday night.
 
Saturday's game will be the 37th meeting between Fordham and Colgate on the gridiron. The Raiders lead the all-time series, which started in 1989, 26-10. Fordham has taken three of the last five meetings, including a 20-14 win at Moglia Stadium last year as Mekai Felton hauled in a 12-yard touchdown pass from Jack Capaldi with 5:23 remaining to break a 14-14 tie.
 
A few notes on the game:
 
• Fordham grad student linebacker James Conway has 488 total tackles, a new Fordham and Patriot League career record.
 
• The 488 career stops for Conway are the most for an active NCAA Division I student-athlete.
 
• Conway was named a 2025 First Team Stats Perform All-American as well as being named preseason All-Patriot League.
 
• Fordham grad student punter Will Haslett was named to the Preseason Watch List for the 2025 FCS Punter of the Year Award, which honors the nation's top collegiate punter in the Football Championship Series (FCS).
 
• In three-plus years, Haslett has punted 161 times, eighth on the all-time list, for 6,925 yards, seventh on the Rams' career list.
 
• Sophomore kicker Bennett Henderson converted his last eight field goal attempts of 2024, three of those for more than 40 yards, and he connected on his lone three-pointer in the opener at Boston College.
 
• Bennett is two-for-three this year in field goals.
 
• Fordham will be represented by five captains in 2025: senior tight end Jaden Allen, grad student linebacker James Conway, senior defensive back Alex Kemper, senior offensive linemen Duke Leonard, and senior defensive lineman Claudy Robinson.
