...very strong line on the second eleven, little scoring was done. But even more explanatory of failure to score were the fumbling, the wretched kicking and the failure to make holes in the line.

...playing itself was long and hard. Punting was purposely tried but with varying results. Both Hallowell and Reid were frequently outpunted by R. Lawrence of the second.

On Webb's wild pass for a kick the ball rolled over the line and Upton was forced to make a safety. Twice again Harvard seemed about to score, when off-side play gave the ball to Bowdoin...
