Virginia, defending national champ, lost to both Air Force and Denver ::help::  this weekend.  Might be an interesting season.

Sadly, it is.  Final:  14-4.

A deeply disturbing performance, one of the worst I've seen in any Cornell sport at any time. The score -- and even the stats, as lopsided as they were -- don't capture the Hoyas' total domination. Cornell disorganized, undisciplined, error-prone, selfish, and lacking commitment. That makes it three years in a row of ineptitude against Georgetown ... and another nasty rainstorm, although at least this one was temporary, as opposed to 2002.

Yeah, they really looked awful -- Cornell just didn't seem to come ready to play -- passes were thrown over the heads of teammates, ground balls almost awlays seem to end up in Georgetown sticks, etc.  In fariness, however, Georgetown, despite being blown out by Maryland a week ago looks like a pretty good team.

Nice turnout of Cornell fans, by the way.  Too bad we didn't have more to cheer about.
