...Crimson looked like a well-oiled machine against the highly-ranked and favored home team, outgaining the Bulldogs 434-109 and holding Payton Award candidate Mike McLeod to just 50 yards rushing. Yale quarterback Matt Polhemus was 2-of-18 for 29 yards and two interceptions when forced to throw the ball with his team trailing...
...late in the year, there was no time left for a comeback. The Crimson finished the season in the cellar of the Red Rolfe Division.“We came into the Ivy League very confident, but we just weren’t quite ready,” captain Matt Vance said. “Those [early] losses can really hurt you in the end, and they obviously did for us.”Before the Ivy League season began, Harvard collected just one victory while playing one of the toughest non-conference schedules in the nation.

But the major burden falls on its star, who as one of the producers has nurtured the project for almost a decade. And Del Toro - whose acting style often starts over the top and soars from there, like a hang-glider leaping from a skyscraper roof - is muted, yielding few emotional revelations, seemingly sedated here. Except for one thrilling confrontation...
