...different drives, what he wants to see or what he’s looking at.”While Pizzotti-to-Luft has been Harvard’s bread-and-butter on offense this season, injuries to regular running backs Cheng Ho and Gino Gordon thrust junior Ben Jenkins into the spotlight Saturday. The junior chipped in 95 yards of total offense out of the backfield and kept the chains moving on the Crimson’s first-half scoring drives.But even when Harvard seemed poised to put the game out of reach, Clark and his offense proved game...
