The Duke's Men[1] became the youngest male a cappella group at Yale University in 1952. "Da Doox" are made up of approximately twenty undergraduates that sing a diverse repertoire of music including jazz, soul, classical, showtunes, and popular music. Singers that wish to join must go through the "rush" process, including auditions, rush meals, and the actual selection (being "tapped"). After over fifty years of singing, the group has a considerable sized alumni of more than three hundred fifty singers. They compete and succeed in national competitions, including a successful showing at the ICCA competition at the Lincoln Center in 2005.

Before the tournament, the Dukes of Harvard, exhibiting a sort of bizarre unreasonable masochistic logic, petitioned their way into Brown's pool, perhaps in hopes of sticking it to Brown and lodging a victory for high-browed, chicken-legged underdogs everywhere.
In fact, if Yale may be likened to a bunch of bananas, Brown may be likened to a huge hulking ape that eats bananas like so much candy or simply just a very large hammer that smashes bananas into mush.
Yale was crushed under the pressure and had no chance in the game despite pulling it a bit closer to end 15-6 on the heels of some comical yet ill-advised throws by Brown.
