It was 24-0 Penn at halftime and it is now 31-0.
More surprising, Harvard is currently pummelling Yale 37-0 in New Haven.

I regret to say that this team is going nowhere under Knowles. Penn and Dartmouth are nothing much this year yet both simply blew us away.

This had to be one of the ugliest football games I've been at in a while. I left when it was 45-0.
Someone near me asked "Why was the score so lopsided?" and someone answered "Because our players aren't very good."
About sums it up, doesn't it?

9 points in garbage time (TD + safety) and the game ends 45-9.

Pretty much a not-so-instant replay of the final game coached by Knowles's predecessor at Franklin Field.Jeff Hopkins '82

You left at halftime? Given Penn's not-stellar record this year, I thought this was going to be an evenly fought contest and Cornell having a good chance to prevail. Nope.

At least that part was entertaining. (We also had the ball inside the Penn 10 but turned it over.) OTOH, it was damn cold by that point, so not fun to be there...

It was 31-0 at halftime. My friend mentioned that Penn was scoring at a point per minute. They pretty much kept it up until the fourth quarter, too. Lovely.
I stuck around until the beginning of the 4th quarter, to see what the toast business was about.
But I thought the same as you. I even told the friends I was with that they'd see a lot of scoring, because although our defense was pretty porous, we managed to score alot, too. Guess not.
