Great punt block and scoop to tie the game at 7.

Harvard's best WR got hurt early in the game and it's really hurt their offense. Of the few plays I saw, we couldn't cover him and their QB could totally trust him to be open on timing throws.

Al DeFlorio

Neither team has a quarterback.  Null is out so no kicking or punting game.  Cornell playcalling is awful but playbook itself is worse.  Unnecessary roughness  (key word:  unnecessary) penalty killed first good field position.  

Princeton and Dartmouth will roll these two teams..

Al DeFlorio

Cornell has a terminally stupid coaching staff.  Harvard has given up just 50 yards per game rushing, but Cornell starts every down series with a rush, usually two.  When they didn't, the surprise pass (and badly underthrown at that) gained 45 yards and led to the only offensive touchdown.

Gorgeous broken tackle 34 yard TD run by Coles makes it 21-24 midway through the 4th.  We are still in this.

Boom.  Banks-Peters 33, 28-24, 5 mins to go.

Defense stands up with 3 late stops.  28-24 final.  Great win!

Yes, terrific win.  I agree with Al that Dartmouth and Princeton are the cream of the Ivies, but okay is one to savor.

A win is a win.  Whatever the football bar is now will be rocking tonight.

Maybe so but we beat Princeton last year and we've improved. Dartmouth will probably roll.

Princeton was missing Lovett their QB. They are much better team this year with him.

Based on early results, both Princeton and Dartmouth look like they could be serious contenders were Ivies to compete in the FCS playoffs

Princeton just rolled Lehigh 66-7. Princeton's lowest MOV was 35 points in a 45-10 win over Columbia. Princeton put up 50+ points in its other 3 games.

Why are you all replying with facts that you know I know? I thought you wanted our team to win.

Probably because it's highly unlikely Cornell wins, and more likely suffer a blow out. ;-)

Didn't anyone say, Your grandfather has a cold ... grandpa had to go to the hospital ... let's pray for grandpa. It gets you ready for what's about to happen shortly.

P.S. Did you hear Princeton grabbed the #1 recruit in the FCS segment, the one Alabama tried to snatch, and he's not even starting? Now, I believe grandpa Ezra is on the life-support machine and don't you walk near the cord, young Charles.
