...week the Crimson captain led a unit that didn't allow Princeton inside the Harvard 13-yd. line. This is one of the Crimson's top areas, with Scott Collinsand Bob Joyee providing more than adequate support for Wilkinson. Will have to cover Brown's receivers out of the backfield today, and that could be a potential problem...
Starting guard Maurice "The Stove" Frilot was moved to fullback to provide blocking heft for the Harvard backfield. The 252-pounder plowed through a Tiger defender, leading the way for Tony Hinz' Walter Payton-style touchdown dive...
Last week, the Crimson held the Green ground attack to just 52 yards rushing.

This is one of the Crimson's top areas, with Scott Collins and Bob Joyce providing more than adequate support for Wilkinson.

He looked decent against Colgate last week, but Yukica has called the quarterback situation "not the best thing in the world." An understatement.

Fullback Robert Santiago is the best in the league in the open field, but has rarely seen daylight this season. Rufus Jones will sit out today's game with an injury. Joe Pusateri, Terry Denson and George Sorbara give the back field some depth...
