...Hobbs and Cooney were both very effective in the line, Hobbs blocking one of Minot's punts which resulted in the first score, Philbin, outside of one brilliant run of 40 yards after catching a punt, was not as spectacular as in the Princeton game a week ago.

...first half his line plunging and defensive work was of a very high standard. Captain Fish was marvellous on the defence; he seemed to be all over the field making a great many tackles in the open. Corbett, by his runs outside of tackle, gained many yards. He ran hard dodged well, and was always following the ball. The two Withingtons, Fisher and McKay formed a line through which Yale made but two first downs during the entire game. The ends were not brilliant, but played consistently and steadily throughout the game. Leslie was a reliable ground gainer though...

By consistently smooth and machine-like play, Yale rolled up a total of 36 points against the Springfield Training School. Howe ran the team well, using excellent judgment at critical points...

...speed of the Yale backfield. The individual playing of the Yale line was remarkable and often brilliant, but lacked unity. Philbin, in the latter part of the second half, caught a punt on his own 35-yard line, and, with tremendous speed, dodged through the whole Brown team and ran 75 yards for a touchdown...
