The very next week, Harvard lost to Cornell, 24-23. Giampaolo had a 40-yard field goal attempt blocked in the final minutes. Had that kick been good, it coulda been another Harvard win.
Against Penn, the Crimson defense gave up a 50-yard bomb on fourth-and-10 to fall 21-17. If the defense had shut Penn quarterback Gavin Hoffman down, it would have been another notch on the Crimson's belt.
The match has been played every year for the last 14 years, since Harvard Chess Club member Christopher N. Avery '88 and former Yale Chess Club President Andrew Metick arranged the 1986 competition. Harvard brought a seven-year winning streak into this weekend's match.
"It's been a very tough season," Harvard Coach Tim Murphy said. "We played incredibly hard every single week, and we lost just a couple of football games right down the wire."
NEW HAVEN, Conn.--The Harvard football team has led or been tied in the fourth quarter of every single game it lost this year.
