Cornell football 2015...

47-21 Princeton.

Comcast Philly now showing it on replay. Seven minutes left.

Ugly.

Columbia is much better this yr w/Bagnoli as coach. They beat Yale yesterday, almost won at Dartmouth last week. We have now lost 17 of our last 18. Our last 4 losses have been by a minimum of 20 points. We will be big underdogs the last 3 games on our schedule , including the Columbia game.

The last time a Cornell football team went winless in a season was in 1935, 80 years ago!

4 years later they were undefeated and made a claim to the National Championship. Who will be the next Coach Snavely?

The worst thing about the football team this year is that because Columbia is last home game, the band will not be traveling to the away Colgate hockey game. That's enough for me to say "Quit football".

"Scoff if you like, but the Big Red was ranked No. 2 and had an 18-game winning streak." Actually, an 18 game non-losing streak - the last game of the 1938 season against Penn ended 0-0. Nonetheless, this represents the high-water mark for Cornell football. Our best season since then was was 8-1 in 1971 - Marinaro's last year. I had to live in Cleveland for 26 years to experience comparable football disappointment.

I thought this was going to be a link to a story about Columbia - who we are scheduled to lose to next Saturday - being in position to tie Harvard with 1 minute left in their game. Down 8 points, they forced Harvard to punt, and put all their players on the line to block the punt. Unfortunately, Columbia can't count, and had twelve players in the formation. The resulting penalty gave Harvard the first down, and they ran out the clock.

We had 194 yards on offense and 111 yards in penalties. That is just horrendous.

Actually moved the ball pretty well in first half but could do nothing in the red zone. Second half, as usual, was an offensive disaster.

We must lead the country in first-down penalties.

Does look like we are running the table this year. 18 losses in last 19 games. 5 consecutive blowout losses. And our best player is graduating, Luke Hagy.

Cornell football is a hot topic of discussion here.

The son of a friend of my wife has interest in Cornell. He's a well-regarded HS junior RB, excels in academics, comes from a great family (Dad is an Air Force colonel -- great guy but serious as a heart attack about his son's welfare). Most importantly, they have a strong interest in Life After Football and want a great education.

He's taken trips to Duke and Vandy and both schools are interested, so I have to think he could be a contributing player -- perhaps even a starter -- at an Ivy.

So, how does this info get passed along to the recruiting staff?

Cornell found Louis Dale when he sent them his own supercut recruiting tape. Tell your friend's son not to forget to close the cover letter with "P.S. I am not a crackpot."

There might be a reason to bet on the obscure stuff that nobody knows about. There was one sports book in Las Vegas in the '90s that took action on college hockey. Drunk Big10 idiots would see it, and bet on Ohio State to beat Clarkson, because "who's that?" Or Notre Dame to beat North Dakota, because of football. Odds are set partially because of the betting. If you knew your stuff and realized that Lake Superior State, Maine, and Colorado College were forces, you could clean up.

To more specifically address your question, there are a lot of Ivy educated a-holes with lots of money who want to seem like a big-shot in casinos.

Pro gamblers love obscure stuff.

Cornell kicks a field goal on its opening drive (Zach Mays, 35 yards, his longest). From there, the two teams march up and down the field, no scoring, and Cornell leads 3-0 at the half. Luke Hagy carries 20 times for ... 49 yards.

Great mid-third quarter opportunity: Sean Scullen picks off a Columbia pass goes 41 yards to the Columbia 24. Hagy takes it to the 15 (shaken up and le, then next play Cornell facemask penalty -15, Mays tries another 38 yard FG on 4th and 8 and this one is blocked. Lost chances. Cornell intercepts on the next Columbia possession. Third quarter ends 3-0 with Cornell in possession near midfield on a failed Columbia fake punt and Hagy still on the bench. The two teams are 4x22 on third down conversions.

Columbia TD with 6:00 to play called back on offensive holding call, Cornell forces QB farther back to 27 on third down and Columbia misses a 44-yard field goal. Jatis in for QB (the running QB) and Gellatly run for 16, 5, 4, 2 and 1 and two first downs with 2:30 to play. On 3rd and 5, Jatis goes 16 to the Columbia 26 and Columbia is out of TOs with 1:35 to play.

So on the 75th anniversary of the Fifth Down game and Cornell's 3-0 forfeit loss to Dartmouth, Cornell beats Columbia 3-0 and ends a nine-game losing streak. Final Cornell 3, Columbia 0.

On to Philadelphia to close out vs. Penn, which is taking it to Harvard right now.

I feel badly not going to support the Red, but then seeing 3 of Cornell's 10 games isn't bad. A couple years back an underdog Cornell team led by Jeff Matthews devastated Penn's pass defenses. Probably not this year. If you go, parking in the Penn garage costs more than the ticket.

Took Penn about 5 plays to score off the opening kickoff. Perhaps fearing Cornell's defense would stiffen later in the afternoon, Penn went for a 2-point conversion run and Cornell stopped that. 6-0 Penn 2 minutes in. And then Penn intercepts on the Cornell 32 on the ensuing Cornell possession. Long afternoon coming. ... Final is a respectable 34-21 loss.

Dartmouth (beat Princeton 17-10) and Penn tie for the title, Harvard leading Yale 21-7 in the third and could also finish 6-1 for a three-way tie.

7:30 in Penn is on pace to win 160-0.

Jatis runs one play, down holding his knee

I'll take a 34-21 loss to Penn. Not a terrible finish.

It wasn't competitive but Cornell covered the point spread. I hope Andy Noel won't let this "rebuilding" continue after next season unless we see some wins!

I agree with CAS. The game was not that close, the team was not competitive, especially our defensive backfield, anf undisciplined on the offensive line. We are in deep trouble in football.

From the Cornell Sun write-up on the Penn game. We are giving out bricks now. I guess it's consolation for not passing out championship rings.

Archer gave member each of the senior class a brick with a plaque inscribed with their name on it, a gesture symbolic of how the senior class laid the foundation for future years of Cornell football.

“That certainly shows to me the message is being driven home that comes with the culture of playing for each other no matter what the score is or what is happening,” Archer said. “It shows me that that is being bought into.”

Yes, great memories. More people in attendance for that one game then probably the whole 2015 season attendance combined.

Aye, I did.

Cornell couldn't afford Lazor when the search for Austin's successor was ongoing. When the time comes for another head coach search (my guess after next season if we don't start winning games) then I would look at Penn State QB coach Ricky Rahne if we are looking for another former Big Red player. But at that point, why not try and bring in an experienced head coach, even at a lower Div 2 or 3 level.

I'd agree if it were a ton of messages, such that it would have been reasonable for someone new to the conversation not to have read all the way from the beginning of the thread. In this case, the earlier message posting this information was a whole *five posts back* and 3 hours earlier.

It doesn't matter if Lazor is available, or even if he was "affordable", which I agree he's not, it's highly doubtful we are making a change now. Next year around this time......stay tuned.

Cornell couldn't afford Lazor when the search for Austin's successor was ongoing.

After being an NFL OC, he hasn't gotten any cheaper.

But he became available today:

This is one great example of a circular thread.

I'd agree if it were a ton of messages, such that it would have been reasonable for someone new to the conversation not to have read all the way from the beginning of the thread. In this case, the earlier message posting this information was a whole *five posts back* and 3 hours earlier.

Buddy, why would Ken have mentioned Lazor if someone else hadn't already mentioned that Lazor had been fired?

Finally some talk of an indoor practice facility and re-building the West stands at Schoellkopf.

Watching him didn't really instill much confidence in our football program.

He reminds me of Chris Farley from Tommy Boy.

At some point, you have to see results on the field (i.e., WINS). Just my opinion, but I can't see how you can keep Archer if he doesn't win at least 4-5 games next season.

Sorry, I couldn't stomach any of it as soon as I heard our esteemed athletic-director-for-life say "I'm 'high atop' Schoellkopf Hall..." If anybody should know the phrase that pays around here is "far above," it's the person in that position.

But, I guess they don't play that song at wrestling matches, so how is he to know?

How about the phrase "Not putting freshmen over their skis" instead of "over their heads." Being over your skis is a good thing.

Yale Daily News has a recent story re Ivy football recruiting. Story states that Yale and Columbia each have 10 recruits rated 2 or 3 stars committed for next fall. Cornell has 1 ranked recruit. Interesting how quickly Bagnoli is turning around Columbia recruiting. Shows what institutional support and a good coach can do in turning around a moribund program.

Columbia has a another recruit of some stature coming under Bagnoli.

Notice the Yale Daily News does a story about recruiting across the Ivy League. That's nice, and not just about what Yale landed.

They care about football and follow the recruiting each year closely, something the Cornell Sun has never done.
