[OT] Football: Cornell 57, Georgetown 7 (FINAL)

[ugarte]

Georgetown had a drive going, but to no avail.

Gametracker says "Team loss of 14 yards" for G'town on 4th and long. I assume that means a fumbled punt snap. Cornell gets the ball back with 2:51 left in the half on the G'town 48.

More bad luck for G'town.  Someone needs to explain to the Cornell announcer that when the G'town punter accepted the snap in his kneeling crouch, he's down at the spot, so Cornell "stops" G'town on 4th down and gets good mid field position.

[JasonN95]

The punter caught the low snap with his knee on the ground, so he's down at the spot.

[JasonN95]

I don't recall seeing that in the past, but thisis now the second time in two-three weeks I've seen it occur (it happened last week (or the week before) in Army's game).

And Cornell takes advantage of the good field position and pops a 35 yard FG with 25 seconds left in the half. 29-0, Cornell.

Onside kick, anyone?

And an out-of-town score that puts a smile on my face: Rutgers up 24-0 on Syracuse.

What happened after the FG? Gametracker appears to have frozen up after getting confused about the kickoff.

EDIT: Nevermind. G'town just ran out the clock. Second half underway.

[Trotsky]

Weitsman's kickoff was awful (about 25 yds), but G'town did nothing and time ran out.  Cornell driving again, early third.

[Beeeej]

Ryan Kuhn five-yard rush for a TD; PAT good.  36-0.

A real nail-biter!

[JasonN95]

Another TD for Cornell after getting good field position when G'town mishandled a Cornell Punt.

On ensuing kickoff, G'town returns it to Cornell 23.

[JasonN95]

Quick TD for G'town on first play.

36-7 with ~3min left in 3rd.
