Quote from: Ken711Why does Cornell run their smallest RB Ean Pope at 5'7" 170lbs into the line on 3rd and 1?  He gets stuffed every time.

Our running back usage never ceases to amaze
otoh incredible cutback by pope for a 7 yard td and cornell is up 14-0 early in the second quarter. the 25 yard sideline pass to laboy that set it up was a solid throw and a great toe-tap.

Carothers hurt again?  Nice Pope cut on TD but too small for primary running back.

Pick inside the Brown 20 for Kidd with 1:30ish left in the first half. Cornell dominating 17-0.

Throwing over the middle 10-20 yards downfield.  New development.

Why do we keep running a back from nine yards behind the line?  Does it ever work?

I think the answer to any question about this team that starts "Why?" can be answered by "Because Archer is a lousy coach."

36-14 win that Cornell fans still make sound like the worst day of their lives.

And Princeton just scored to take a 21-14 lead on Harvard with just over a minute left.

Indeed! Princeton just went up by 7 against Harvard very late. Likely logjam at 2-1 in the standings.

Five teams are 2-1, including Cornell. Brown and almost unanimous pre-season favorite Yale are 1-2, and Columbia is 0-3.

Team          Ivy    Overall
Princeton     2-1    3-3
Dartmouth     2-1    3-3
Harvard       2-1    5-1
Penn          2-1    5-1
Cornell       2-1    3-3
Brown         1-2    3-3
Yale          1-2    3-3
Columbia      0-3    2-4


Cornell still has Princeton, @ Penn, @ Dartmouth, Columbia. I could see the last four games breaking anywhere from 3-1 (maybe), could go 2-2 (beat Columbia and ?Dartmouth?), might go 1-3. A 5-5 season would be a decent year for Cornell.
