Bring back the Liberty Cup!

The Liberty Cup, which originated in 2002 between the two premier D1 colleges at the time in New York City (sorry Wagner) to commemorate and remember the events of 9/11, was last played in 2015 due to a lack of competitiveness after a streak of embarrassing Columbia losses (many of which took place during a 22 game losing streak).
However, now that the Lions are more competitive, and that Ivy Leagues have added a bye week (beginning the path to playing a full season) I think that all involved would like the return of the Liberty Cup - or maybe an all city tournament - to be restarted.
Imagine:
Wagner v Fordham - week of 9/4
Columbia v Fordham - week of 9/11
Columbia v Wagner - week of 9/18
This environment I believe will prove far more exciting to both alumni and students than listless games against Marist, for example (again, no disrespect intended), and may even draw in New Yorkers and expand the horizons of college football in the Big Apple!
