Page escapes pressure then makes an absoutely terrible throw after getting free. Picked off.

Page had to juke one 300 pound guy - and he had room to - to give himself a better shot with his legs. Instead the ball went into triple coverage and was way short.

Turnovers killing Cornell.  First downs now 23-10.  Can't keep giving away the ball.

Yale QB drops one in the bucket for 28 down to the Cornell 10. Pitsenberger up the gut for another 6. Two minute warning and Cornell is out of TOs. Barring a turnover, wrap this one up. Much better outcome than expected (again) but a loss (again).

The seeds of a good team under Swanstrom are here.

4th and 20 and Page hits Kurtz for the first. Kurtz gets shaken up AND Page gets hit late and has to come out. Cornell ball at the Yale 41 after the roughing penalty. Bass-Sulpezio comes in for one play, runs for 2. Incomplete on second. Page takes a shot at the end zone and draws a DPI; flag picked up (probably because the ball was short).

On 4th, Cornell commits an obvious holding penalty in the backfield, Page rolls out and throws it right to the Yale defensive star, Kamara, who turns it into a pick six and now it looks like a blowout. 41-24.

I agree. This program is moving in a positive direction. Lots to work on.

Cornell played better vs. Yale, but once again no running game.  Meanwhile the Bull Dogs RB rushed for 175 yards.  Maybe running the football sounds boring, but it seems like the opposing teams always run the ball and Cornell does not.   Homecoming at Cornell this week and Go Big Red!
