...Murphy said following the Penn game. “We’re a team that finds a way to win.” Contrast Harvard’s pattern with Yale’s steady improvement since its disappointing Ivy opener, a 17-14 loss to Cornell. The Bulldogs enter Cambridge on the heels of their two best victories of the year, a surprise 13-3 win over previously league-leading Brown and a decisive 14-0 shutout of Princeton last week. The Bulldogs come to Cambridge ranked in the top three in the league in rushing, passing, scoring...
...captains share more than just the program cover. Both are emotional leaders for defenses that rank near the top of the league, and both have been among their respective squad’s top playmakers throughout the season. Abare leads the Bulldogs with 68 tackles and has added 3.5 sacks and four of Yale’s league-leading 19 interceptions on the year.

Harvard did win, 4-0. 1909: “Battle of the Giants” in which 9-0 Yale beats 8-0 Harvard for national championship. 1930: W. Barry Wood ’32 throws a pair of touchdowns and plays the entire last minute...
...poses hardly the kind of threat that Penn and Yale—both 5-3—pose. The Crimson can’t afford to allow a botched punt, a punt return for a touchdown, or missed extra points when going up against the Quakers or the Bulldogs and hope to come away with wins in both games. So while the 42-28 drubbing of Columbia—and the 13-3 Bulldog win over the Bears, for that matter—come as sweet relief for a Harvard team that hasn?...
