...time against much lighter opponents, victories have always been won, but the scores with very few exceptions have been exceedingly low. The principal trouble with the team has been a weak defense and an offense which is disconnected and uncertain. As it stands at present, the team is almost like eleven individuals who have barely learned the fundamentals of the game and have not yet accustomed themselves to playing together...

...quicker and more concerted starting by the backs. Instances where the runner was not helped by some of the other players were few, and, as a whole, the men gave an impression of having mastered the fundamentals of the game. They worked smoothly together and played considerably more like a team than in any previous game this season. The left side of the line was unreliable, however, and through it and around it most of Carlisle's gains were made.
