Clearly, we've all been mistaken. Pop Warner actually coached at Cornell College.

During its founding, Stanford as a university was modeled largely after Cornell. Andy White was asked to be its first president, but he declined. Half of Stanford's original faculty members were from Cornell (probably eager to leave for California). Even "Cardinal Red" was modeled after "Big Red".

"The three teams will play a series of one-game playoffs this Friday and Sunday, March 14 and 16, at Columbia's Levien Gym to determine who will earn the Ivy League's automatic berth to the NCAA tournament."

Lots of cheering for that goal! I think there's a pretty decent Cornell crowd.

[quote RichH]In the past, the CU Pep Band has had to alter their timing and eliminate the extra 2 beats usually (automatically) inserted for the "opponent too" portion of the crowd response, but since no bandies were around in 2002, I only hope they have discussed this and come to the correct conclusion.[/quote]
