Cornell (3-4, 3-1) goes into Hanover (5-2, 2-2).  Walker is still out.

Walker's out for a year.

Screen graphic calls us "BIG REDS."::rolleyes::

Keen-eyed Dartmouth announcer calls Null a "left-footed kicker."

[Trotsky]

Good drive by Dartmouth helped by an unfortunate 15-yarder against Cornell.

Fun to be watching relevant Cornell football in November.  This has only been the case about 9 times in my 37 years as a fan.

We look like our old, awful selves so far.

[Trotsky]

Our leading rusher is Gellatly.  5 carries for 8 yards.  Team is 16 carries for 12 yards.

D looks great, though.

We're playing a 5-2 team on their field.  Not going to be easy.

D looks great, though.

Not getting close to passer.

But good coverage on the receivers.

Stupid Ryder Stone.  Stupid white Ivy halfbacks.

[Trotsky]

If we give the ball back here I am going to be very angry indeed.

[Trotsky]

OK, well, I'll take being down just one score at the half.

Meanwhile:

Yale 34 Brown 7 (last night, final)
Harvard 14 Columbia 7 (halftime)
Penn 24 Princeton 7 (3rd)

If all scores hold:

4-1 Yale
3-2 Cornell
3-2 Columbia
3-2 Dartmouth
3-2 Harvard

If we can flip ours:

4-1 Cornell
4-1 Yale
3-2 Columbia
3-2 Harvard

[Al DeFlorio]

Lucky to be down only 7 at the half.

[Al DeFlorio]

O-line getting stuffed.

Why do we keep throwing 30 yards downfield on 3rd and 7 or 8?

[Al DeFlorio]

Banks now 8 for 25.  Unlike Princeton, Dartmouth ready for the run with Jatis at QB.
