Cornell Football 2019

Cornell just burned a timeout after the clock was stopped after another timeout. Are you kidding me?

You can't make this stuff up.  Now 20-10 Yale after a FG.  :`-(

Surely one of the four underclass quarterbacks is able to pass the football.

One would hope.

Remember our head coach in his infinite wisdom decided to make his OC also the QB coach, despite the fact he never played the position before in college, or coached the position before.

Insides kicking team needs work.

OK staying positive, Cornell goes 9-1 after their 27-10 loss to Yale. :-D

I want some of what you're smoking.

Looks like the same script as seasons past.  ;-)

This has nothing to do with the football game itself, but I thought I'd post it here. I didn't go to the game, but was in the area and was planning on meeting with a friend who is a band alum after the game to hear the band's post-game concert. The band held its post-game concert right outside the stadium, but inside the perimeter of the stadium. As I started to walk through the gate, I was stopped by a security guy who told me I couldn't enter the stadium unless I had an unused game ticket. It turns out there's no re-entry if you leave during the game (a policy put in place to keep drunk tailgaters from coming back into the stands). I pointed out that the game was over, and that I just wanted to go inside for the band concert, which was taking place 30 yards away. But he held his ground and even called his supervisor over to make sure I got the message. A pair of band parents weren't allowed inside the gate either, and neither was the grandmother of a Cornell football player. Is it just me, or is it idiotic not to let people into the stadium perimeter AFTER the game for a post-game concert. I was able to see most of the band and hear the concert, of course, but it was annoying to have to do so through the bars of the fence instead of joining the other alumns standing next to the band, including my friend. Since Yale was letting kids run around on the field for 30 minutes after the game, it's not like they were trying to clear everybody out as quickly as possible.

Here is the start of the second paragraph on the Athletics department's website.  Someone needs to learn that you return interceptions for touchdowns.

"Yale took advantage of four Big Red turnovers, including a touchdown return for an interception,..."

In year 7 of the Archer era, Cornell is now 11-32 in Ivy play, & losers of their last 5 Ivy games.

All in all, it would have been a moral victory had the scored ended 20-16 Yale. Giving up a TD on that onsides kick. Ouch.

Need more than moral victories at this stage. Anyone see evidence of "hybrid warfare"?

Running that back for the score was bad football.
