Some advocates for the lending industry have criticized the legislation, arguing that it would drive up interest rates for students with private loans. At Harvard, however, loans are subsidized by the University or the federal government, meaning students are not faced with the prospect of going through private lenders.

Harvard didn’t start any of its nine possessions beyond its own 25-yard line, started inside the 20 five times, and started inside the 10 three times. The Mountain Hawks, meanwhile, started just one drive inside their own 20 and even began one drive in Crimson territory at the 43-yard line.
