WASHINGTON – The Georgetown University and Columbia University football programs will play the sixth rendition of the Lou Little Trophy series when they meet on Saturday afternoon at Columbia's Robert K. Kraft Field at Lawrence A. Wien Stadium. The
Lou Little Trophy, which stays with the winner until the following year's contest, honors College Football Hall of Fame Head Coach Lou Little who coached at both Georgetown and Columbia.
Overall, Georgetown and Columbia have met seven times in their history, with the Lions holding an all-time 4-3 series advantage. The Georgetown Hoyas hold a 3-2 advantage in Lou Little Trophy games. After the first meeting in 1901, the two programs did not face each other on the gridiron again until 2006.
