on the first drive, yes. for a couple of nice throws on the second drive. he's thrown 3 off-target since then. he and pope are both running well.

Yep. Wang might have to use his legs more to get us some scores.

really good drive after the defensive stop. Kurtz with a clean block to free Wang to run for a TD after the Martini sideline pass to Kurtz. Looking really good and mixing things up in a way Harvard is struggling to keep up with. Both offenses at giving the defenses fits.

If we can just get a little better on the run defense . . .

Two Harvard touchdowns on breakdowns in the secondary.

Wang falls just short on 4th down. Really thought he would've gotten it, but he didn't stretch out.

Harvard is getting 4 and 5 yards on first down with the runs. That's a killer.

Game was in play until the refs blew the targetting call.. its like the dont even know the rules in the replay booth,

Still how many blown coverages can a D have in one half.

I don't have replay on my computer, so I couldn't see how the TE got space between him and the linebacker for that last TD. Did he get a rub?

Better team than UAlbany IMO.  If Ivies allowed post season play Harvard would go a ways.  Cornell staff has got its work cut out in trying to attract higher caliber athletes.

They have a better class coming in this year than at anytime in the 11 years under Archer.

A couple of observations:  It's hard to win game when the defensive line is getting pushed back 1-2 yards on the snap of the ball. Also was impressed with pregame coin toss where both the Cornell Presdent, Kolikoff, and the Chair of the Board of Trustees were out there.  In all my years following Cornell football I had never seen anything like that. I think it's a good sign that Admin truly cares about the football program.
