Cornell football 2015...

[Jim Hyla]

The worst thing about the football team this year is that because Columbia is last home game, the band will not be traveling to the away Colgate hockey game.::bang:: That's enough for me to say "Quit football".

Cornell is a 35 point underdog at Dartmouth this Friday, in a game that is nationally televised. Hard to imagine this game being on TV will help our recruiting...

I don't know. It will probably look like a lot of playing time is available for freshmen.

If that's not looking for a silver lining, I don't know what is.

Maybe provide 3 extra recruiting slots for the bottom finishing team.  ::burnout::

The last place Ivy gets three times the number of scholarships.

In our case, probably necessary. :-D

The 1940 decision is in the news again.

The Big Red gave America hope.

The Hurricanes are selling us T-shirts.

The 1940 decision is in the news again.

"Scoff if you like, but the Big Red was ranked No. 2 and had an 18-game winning streak."  Actually, an 18 game non-losing streak - the last game of the 1938 season against Penn ended 0-0.  Nonetheless, this represents the high-water mark for Cornell football.  Our best season since then was was 8-1 in 1971 - Marinaro's last year.  I had to live in Cleveland for 26 years to experience comparable football disappointment.

I thought this was going to be a link to a story about Columbia - who we are scheduled to lose to next Saturday - being in position to tie Harvard with 1 minute left in their game.  Down 8 points, they forced Harvard to punt, and put all their players on the line to block the punt.  Unfortunately, Columbia can't count, and had twelve players in the formation. The resulting penalty gave Harvard the first down, and they ran out the clock. ::doh::

We had 194 yards on offense and 111 yards in penalties.  That is just horrendous.  ::wow::

No wonder football doesn't show up on the front page of the CU Sports webpage.
