...only sensational features were the two successive end runs by MacKay and Young of 30 yards each, which immediately preceded Brown's touchdown. The Brown team greatly outweighed the Freshman and had better team work, but the individual playing of Crowley, Harding, Smith, Barbour, and Corbett was so good, that Brown had only a shade the better of it. The Freshman backs did not particularly distinguish themselves, though Cutler out punted MacKay by a good margin...
...first half, the ball zigzagged back and forth near the centre of the field and, though Brown rushed farther than Harvard, Cutler's good kicking evened up matters. In the second half Brown outplayed Harvard, though several times the Freshmen got together and gained ground, only in most cases to lose it by a poorly executed forward pass.

Burr played well, both offensively and defensively, and his recovery of his first blocked kick was a very fast piece of work. He seemed to be somewhat slow in getting his punts off, but did not have adequate protection when called on to kick. Fish put up a good game on the offense and tackled...
