...heart of the matter. At times he tends to be stiff in voice and movement; I wish he would let himself go more than he does. He obviously loves his stuff, and he would do his audience a favor by sharing this love more.

Brown lost quarterback Hal Phillips to an injury while losing to Penn and sophomore Brian Marini must move into the starting lineup. So you have to go with Yale by upwards of three touchdowns: Yale 41, Brown...
