The Cornell secondary is doing a decent job, but they're defenseless with no pass rush.  It's an embarrassment.

Looks like it will have to be a game of great individual plays.  The Taylor INT helped.  Maybe we can guess right and turn one of Perry's flat passes into a Pick 6.

3rd and 4th down short yardage stops for Cornell D to begin Q2!  Nice.

Al DeFlorio

One more big penalty.  Discipline?

3 passes from Kenney-Fitzgerald chew up the field and give us the lead.  Cornell 13 Brown 6

They survived this one but it's certainly an issue.  Penalty yardage currently 55-5 and that's not including the 30 yards and TD Howard lost on the first drive.

After the D gets a 4th down stop, a nice Cornell drive ends in a TD pass to the TE for a 13-6 lead. Credit to Kenny for some nice passes on the drive—I've been tough on him but he looked good there.

He got some protection that drive.

Great blocked punt and return for a TD, Cornell 20 Brown 6, mid 2nd quarter

Halfway to 40.

Another big penalty helps a last-second Brown TD.

Perry leads Brown 90+ yards in the 2-minute drill to score but muffs the kick.  Cornell 20 Brown 12, halftime

Worse for me was a missed sack. Our guy had a clean shot at Perry around the Cornell 30-yard line, but he was able to elude the defender and completed about a 10-yard pass.

Perry leads Brown right down the field to start the second half; we stop the third PAT.  Cornell 20 Brown 18

Trotsky

Great drive right back for the Red culminating in an SK Howard 5 yard TD run.  Cornell 27 Brown 18, mid 3rd

Cornell answers on a 7-yard run by Howard to put Cornell ahead 27-18.
