White's line plunging was the feature of the game: in the course of 28 rushes he carried the ball a total of 140 yards; he started fast and continually broke through centre for long gains. MacKay was exceptionally active, blocking a kick and spoiling several plays. Fish, who captained the team in Burr's absence, also played a splendid game. It was in the ends that the line was weak, for although Crowley and Cutting both played brilliantly at times, they were not down on punts and did not tackle hard. Cutler punted well, but was not so good...
...distinct advantage, but in the second half the University team had no trouble in gaining through the Brown line, and played a much superior game. The teams resorted mainly to the old style of line-plunging game, and had little or no success with the forward pass or onside kick. Punting was frequent on both sides, McKay, of Brown, with the wind behind him being able to keep the ball in the middle of the field. There was no scoring in the first half, but Harvard had the ball on its opponent's 20-yard line and was gaining consistently...
...Mayhew kicked off to MacKay, who ran the ball back to the 30-yard line. White went through centre for five yards, and Kennard punted to Sprackling on Brown's 33-yard line. After an exchange of kicks Harvard received the ball, and White and Corbett made ten yards on two line plunges. White gained two first downs on centre plays, and had carried the ball down to Brown's 35-yard line, when Cutler's forward pass failed, and the ball went to Brown on the 50-yard line. Brown again received the ball after another exchange of punts...
After a couple of line plays, the Brown fullback punted outside on the 50-yard line. Corbett made five yards, and Cutting followed with a gain of ten yards around right end, on a delayed pass. Brown got Cutler's onside kick on their 45-yard line, and failing to gain through the line was forced to punt to Cutler on Harvard's 25-yard line. Corbett plunged through left tackle for ten yards, and White made first down again in two centre plays. Cutler's onside kick went to Mayhew, and Brown immediately tried a forward pass, which went...
...Freshman team's first play was a double pass, which Kennard broke up. Winston then punted to the University team, and on its first play White went through right guard for fifteen yards on a fake kick. Kennard then punted to Wigglesworth on the Freshmen's 35-yard line. Winston returned the ball, and Smith recovered it on a fumble. Winston was put through left guard for seven yards. McKay got the ball on Kenney's fumble, but Kennard lost it on the next play. Winston's punt went to Corbett on the 50-yard line, and Kennard punted immediately...
