Emmanuel Ekama, who has missed the last two games with a sore foot, is a questionable starter at linkman, a spot where the Crimson has had some problems. Ekama has said he will play, but has not practiced in over a week. Harvard had trouble controlling the midfield area against Wesleyan, and might continue to be vulnerable against Cornell today...

The Redmen took over at midfield and scored in five plays, with the aid of another slant in to Schubert, good for 34 yards...
Jimmy Stoekel had replaced Crone at quarterback by this time, however, and he put Harvard back into the game with a 59 yard touchdown pass play.
