...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. They should be able to handcuff McLeod, and, I’m guessing, Bulldogs QB Matt Polhemus, untested because of the run game’s success (21 pass attempts per game...

...League in points allowed, and has held opponents to a Division I-AA-low 53 yards rushing per game.“We’ve been harping on that, saying that we can’t overlook Penn,” senior defensive tackle Mike Berg said. “[If we lose to the Quakers] then Yale doesn’t matter anyway.”Penn running back Joe Sandberg, who rushed for 174 yards last week against Princeton, will run into a defense that is “firing on all cylinders,” according...

...When the recently slain terrorist Abu Musab Zarqawi executed American Nicholas Berg, he went out of his way to specify that the gruesome murder was an act of revenge for crimes committed by the U.S. military against Muslims at the prison. Both Osama bin Laden and his top deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri, use events at the prison to explain their calls for Holy War against the U.S. "Al-Qaeda and other Jihadis still cite Abu Ghraib to demonstrate what they call U.S. crimes against Muslims," notes Rita Katz, director and co-founder of the SITE Institute, who has made...
