Lehigh at Fordham

BRONX, N.Y. (Interstat) — An undefeated Lehigh squad riding a potent, multi-quarterback rushing attack will face a struggling Fordham team coming off a bye week when the Mountain Hawks visit the Rams on Saturday, Oct. 25, 2025, at Jack Coffey Field.

Lehigh (7-0) is one of the nation’s surprise teams, averaging over 33 points per game behind quarterbacks Hayden Johnson and Matt Machalik. In their last outing, a 31-7 win at Columbia on Oct. 11, the duo combined for 106 rushing yards and three touchdowns on the ground, with Johnson adding 240 yards through the air. Running back Luke Yoder also scored.

Fordham (1-5) seeks to rebound from a 30-13 home loss to Dartmouth on Oct. 18. Quarterback Gunnar Smith threw for 238 yards and a touchdown in the defeat, but the Rams’ defense has been a season-long concern, allowing an average of 39 points per game.

Despite the stark contrast in records, Interstat’s game simulator projects a Fordham upset, with a final score of 37-29. The Rams will look to leverage their home field to disrupt Lehigh’s perfect season.
