...which is anchored by sophomore standout McLeod. The Ivy League’s leading rusher spearheads a Bulldogs’ ground assault that posts a robust 207.4 yards per game. However, Yale hasn’t faced a rushing defense of Harvard’s staunchness. Senior tackle Michael Berg leads a unit that rates an 8.5 on the Mohs scale of hardness, somewhere between topaz and corundum.

The defensive tackle led a Harvard defensive performance that notched its first shutout in two years, a 28-0 win over the Big Green. Berg led the team with seven tackles, three for a loss, as well as two forced fumbles, a fumble recovery, and a sack.
