Cornell 7-3 over Princeton in the second quarter. That is not a typo. Halfback option pass, Luke Hagy.
Princeton 10-7, took them 2 minutes to get the lead back
Princeton 17-7 after Cornell leaves Tiger receivers open twice in a row midway through 2nd
Princeton 17-14 Cornell gets back one TD. Hanging tough. Moral victory at the half.
Princeton 31-14 after three. Cornell suffers blocked FG, wide FG. Hagy long TD run called back on a hold. Next play, Shapiro open in end zone can't hold onto pas.
Princeton 38-21 halfway into the fourth. Looks like the impossible upset won't be possible.
Princeton 38-27 with 5:00 to play as Cornell scores but no conversion (keeping it a two-possession game), Cornell recovers onside kick. Finally a bounce going Cornell's way.
Princeton 38-27 final after Cornell pass mixup on 4th down goes awry
Cornell had its ups and downs early on. Appears Cornell had to call a timeout because the punter wasn't ready.
Game is televised on Fox College Sports. Makes me feel less guilty about not driving up to see a game in rainy, 39-degree weather. Cornell TD wasn't fully shown. Fox had cut away to an Ivy League sports / TV coordinator going on about how awesome it was that 13 Ivy games will be on Fox or other regional / national TV. Thank goodness for replays.
25-yard Princeton punt returns not helping Cornell.
Cornell QBs taking a pounding on Princeton blitz; Big Red O-line has trouble blocking out all those Tigers.

Lots of mistakes and missed opportunities. FYI, the last winless season occurred in 1935 when Gil Dobie was the head coach, the last 1-9 record occurred in 2003 with Tim Pendergast as head coach.

And are we not coming up on the centennial of the last unbeaten, untied Big Red team? Much to do in the off-season.Ken711

No Bill, that was 1939. My father was on that team
.
There was indeed an undefeated untied team in 1915, but there were others in 1921, 22, and 23 as well.

I listened to some of Columbia - Yale today and that crew is (1) talented and (2) all gallows humor because that team apparently really sucks. Fingers crossed I get to see a W when I bring the boy to his first Cornell event.
