No video, no audio, no nuttin'.

Fordham up 13-3. Cornell QB Adam Currie (?) with 2 INT so far.

Consider yourself fortunate. Over 300 yards passing by Fordham...in the 1st-half.

3 INTs by Currie in the half -- should have been 4. Cornell's only TD was a great catch by Walters on a ball that was a perfect strike to the Fordham defender. Great takeaway.

Maybe Fordham QB's arm will get tired. So much for presuming Fordham to be like Columbia on a bad year.

Another 50+ pass play for a TD (on a WR screen). This came one play after an 80+ run was called back. Cornell CBs can be blown out of a play by a breeze.

You're down by 16 in the 3Q...you're inside the Fordham 10...so you bring in a freshman QB who's been on the sideline for your 3 & 7...::doh::

Well, the FG was good.

Another passing TD for Fordham.

Fordham moves right downfield for an easy touchdown, now 32-13. That drive reminded me of last week's Giants-Raiders game.

Another pick for Fordham... I think it's #5 or 6, I've lost count.

Oh well. Least it's not an Ivy game. And that much more donor movement to hockey...

They better turn the football program around before the next Cornell Master Plan casts an eye on Schoellkopf as a redevelopment zone.

Football is probably safe, if only because they need to hold graduation somewhere.

That place could use some redevelopment. I love the setting, but the facility is a pit. Add up Cornell's heady football history, impressive fund raising apparatus, prestigious architecture and landscape architecture programs, and it's easy to imagine a spectacular complex. Ah, to dream...

Attitudes like this are the reason why we have Uris, the three Olins (one of which rose from the ashes of the stunning Boardman Hall), Clark, the Engineering school, Mallott, the new Roberts and Kennedy (which replaced beautiful old stone Stone and Roberts), Bradfield, Ho Plaza, etc. Yikes. There's nothing wrong with the Crescent that cannot be renovated without "redeveloping" the place.

I never said tear down the Crescent. Redevelopment doesn't necessarily mean raze. See Sage Hall.

What you want is "renovate" or "rehabilitate".

Perhaps we should redevelop our football program though?
