Dante Reno lit up No. 10 Harvard for 273 yards and three touchdowns as No. 25 Yale seized an Ivy League FCS playoff berth with a 45-28 win in the 141st edition of The Game on Saturday.

Reno needed only one snap to strike: after a forced fumble by Brandon Webster on Harvard’s first play, he hit Jaxton Santiago for a 21-yard touchdown at 14:42 of the first. He later found Nico Brown for a 64-yard score and connected with Lucius Anderson for the freshman’s first career touchdown, finishing 15 of 19 while averaging more than 14 yards per attempt. Brown led all receivers with 189 yards.
