...intriguing matchup pits the two most active throwers in the league against each other. Brown’s Michael Dougherty and Cornell’s Nathan Ford are both liable to throw over 30 passes, and spurred on by the opponent’s air show, that number may reach 40. The Big Red has the more reliable running back in senior Luke Siwula, but he’s been on the shelf lately with an injury.
