Glory Days

During the Glory Days of Columbia Football under legendary Coach Lou Little, the Lions won the 1934 Rose Bowl and defeated an undefeated (34 game streak, spanning three seasons!) Army team in 1947. To close out the era, Coach Aldo "Buff" Donelli led the Lions to become Ivy League Co-Champions with Harvard in 1961.
