Empire 8 Rivalry
Alfred Saxons vs Hartwick Hawks is the kind of college football matchup that splits living rooms and group chats. Whenever these two meet, the records get thrown out and the only thing that matters is who walks away with the bragging rights.
Both programs call the Empire 8 home, so this isn't just pride on the line — it's conference standing, head-to-head tiebreakers, and a direct say in who plays for a title. As in-state NY rivals, the recruiting battles run year-round, long before kickoff. When the Saxons face the Hawks, the debate is never settled for long — last year's result just sets up next year's argument.
