Another reason was fullback Jim Callinan, who rushed for 88 yards last week while winning the New England sports writers' Golden Helmet award. Callinan now needs 145 yards to break the single-season Crimson rushing record. He may get all of that today against a defense that has allowed 20 points in every game this year and 86 in the last two weeks...
...Callinan's partners in the backfield, halfback Jim Acheson and flanker Steve Bianucci, are both sidelined with injuries today and will probably not play. Jim Garvey--Harvard's fourth-leading ball carrier this year with 73 yards--will fill in at flanker, and Scotty McCabe should sub for Acheson, who has been bothered by a bad shoulder all year...

After getting the ball back, Harvard shifted into its double-wing, two tight-end offense and bullied the ball in. "We had seen that on the films and we were ready for it," Laycock said, "but they just knocked us over." Callinan rumbled 26 yards on three carries in the mini-drive and Acheson's plunge put the game away: THE NOTEBOOK: Senior split end Dirk Killen was the biggest beneficiary of Cuccia's fine passing day, gathering in a pair of aerials for 57 yards. Cuccia himself caught one pass for 15 yards from Don Allard...
Actually, the visitors treated themselves pretty well for much of the day, especially in the first half. The offense ground out more than 290 yards running and passing before intermission. Jim Callinan rushed for 88 yards (to stay on a 1000-yard pace) and scored two TD's. Ron Cuccia had his best day passing (5 of 7 for 114 yards) and ran as recklessly and as well as he has every Saturday.
