Cornell at Brown on Saturday, noon kick-off.

[ugarte]

Cornell 3 and out but a nice punt gives boyfriend the ball just inside their own 15.

[ugarte]

Excellent defensive series. Brown loses 2 yards on the drive. Cornell receives the punt at midfield and returns it to the Brown 40.

[Al DeFlorio]

Really awful play-calling with first down at Brown 10.

[ugarte]

GBS misses Lee in the end zone. Not a good pass imo. I thought he had time and Lee had a step on the coverage. Cornell gets down to the Brown 11, though, and goes up 24-10 after a short FG.


Just noticed that Lesiewicz has been kicking since the Zhao missed FG, so Zhao may have reinjured himself on that kick which would explain why it was so bad.

the back-to-back screens that were covered and swarmed were bad but the third down play could have been a score with a better throw.

Should never have been facing 3rd and 10.  Those passes to the flat don't work with a short field.

Had to step away for a bit but Brown picks off GBS and punches it in, followed by a solid Cornell TD drive. Brown has the ball as Q3 ends with Cornell up 31-17.

Insane one-handed grab by Miller on the sidelines for a 50-yard catch and run to cut the Cornell lead to 7.

I swear – these Cornell defensive backs are just extremely frustrating. They let guys behind them, they can't make the tackle. I just don't understand what they teach them or what they're coaching them. This happens constantly game after game. If they can square them up, this team could win the Ivy League.

If they throw that wide receiver screen again, this offensive coordinator should be fired. Penalties are killing them as well.

[ugarte]

Terrible drive. Cornell gets one first down then goes 22 yards backwards with a sack and a penalty.  Big Red punt, Brown fair catch at around their own 40.

GBS can't throw a deep ball and it's hurting us because our receivers are getting clear.

As I type, Brown gets an outside run down to the 25 plus a helmet to helmet personal foul which is being reviewed for targeting. Losing this game would be a travesty.

[ugarte]

Review takes the penalty off the board. Incomplete, incomplete, false start, sack, interception on 4th and 18... that we should not have caught. Cornell ball at the 10 instead of at ~the 40.

[big29red]

Again with the wide receiver screen that goes nowhere. They are out of their minds! They seem to have abandoned their run game, I don't understand why. All year it's worked pretty well with Triplet.

[Al DeFlorio]

Too much easy-west rather than north-south.  Play-calling sucks.
