Things are going to get worse for the Bears before they get better. The Rams are just too strong, and Brown will likely be too emotionally spent from last weekend to topple its intrastate rival. Running back Nick Hartigan should respond with a big day, but it won’t be enough, as the Bears fall...
Like last year, Brown grabbed an advantage early in the game, racking up big gains on play-action.

Which he did, as usual, with success—the longtime Harvard-killer had nine catches for a whopping 223 yards and two scores...
Much of the pre-game speculation had been focused on Hartigan, a large, bruising tailback who, like Dawson, is on the Payton Award watch list. The 6’2, 220-lb. back had 115 yards on 29 carries, but managed only four yards per carry and rarely broke for a large gain for a day that his coach Phil Estes deemed “average...
