Coach Joe Restic's offensive attack has been neither as wide open nor as prolific as expected, even against two relatively weak defenses. Quarterback Rod Foster put the ball in the air only 14 times Saturday afternoon...
Princeton-Columbia--The Tigers are right on schedule. Having lost (embarassingly) to a poor team before a large Princeton opening crowd last weekend, Princeton should be ready to win big away from home. The Tigers' ought to rent out Palmer Stadium and buy a fleet of busses. Rod Plummer passed for over 300 yards last Saturday. He will never pass for 100 yards again. But without Columbia's All-American Mike Pyszczymucha, the Columbia announcers and the Princeton running game will have a field day. Princeton 20, Columbia...
Northeastern had the Crimson in a 7-7 deadlock at halftime last fall before Harvard's Rod Foster engineered three touchdown drives that broke the game wide open. Zabilski feels that the squad has matured over the past year and a victory over the Crimson, while not necessarily the Huskies' exclusive goal this season, could point the way to a winning season despite the toughest schedule in Northeastern history...

Quarterback Eric Crone, who hyperextended a knee on a busted play last weekend, will miss this afternoon's contest, as will halfback Steve Harrison and defensive backs Barry Malinowski and Steve Golden. Rod Foster took over the quarterback slot when Crone had difficulty moving the offense last week, however, so Crone's loss isn't all that grievous. Shifty Nick Leone, who ran well last Saturday in Harrison's spot, will replace him at left halfback. The loss of Malinowski and Golden is of more...
Princeton lost to an unimpressive Rutgers team, 33-18, in its opener, and could be in for another mediocre season. Do not forget, however, that Princeton lost to Rutgers 29-0 in 1969 and scored 52 points against Harvard six weeks later. The Tigers have a quarterback named Rod Plummer who specialized in interceptions last year, but who hit on 21 of 32 passes against Rutgers. Princeton, already lacking depth, has lost its only reliable tight end and a tackle who has been described as its best defensive lineman in years. On the plus side, John Bjorklund, the first Princeton...
