...fourth quarter. And they’ve won a lot of those close games.”An area in need of improvement for the Crimson this weekend will be special teams. The game against the Lions featured a missed extra point, several mishandled returns, and a snap over the punter’s head, which led to a Columbia touchdown. As if that were not enough, Harvard, last in the league in net punting average, also gave up a 76-yard punt return for a quick six points.Thus this weekend could be a sink-or-swim opportunity...
Freshmen, don’t follow our freshman year example. Ours was dominated by Pokémon Snap tournaments, (which were surprisingly poorly attended—considering the posters we made). As midterms finish up and you realize you don’t actually have to attend Ec10 lectures, you will have hours of free time that you’ll spend agonizing over what Facebook gift to send to that thick biddy in Straus B. In high school, you mostly spent your time padding your resume by competing in the Tri-Valley Quiz Bowl Tournament, creating a (fake...

And, for the moment, no one has stepped up to fill the role of playmaker...
...scrimmage.” The statistics are a bit deceptive, as the Crimson’s running backs posted a combined 38 yards on 19 carries, but 26 yards came off Harvard’s total due to sacks, and another 33 yards were lost because of a bad snap over junior punter Thomas Hull’s head—both losses counted against the rushing total. It probably also didn’t help that the Crimson started a pair of new offensive linemen on Saturday: sophomore Chris LeRoy and junior Ben Sessions got their first starts...
...Crimson offense, going 25-for-40 for 376 yards, and the defense managed three interceptions and forced two fumbles, one of which was returned for a touchdown. But what Saturday’s game also exposed was Harvard’s only question mark: special teams. A snap over the punter’s head resulted in a quick Lions touchdown, another punt was returned by Columbia’s Austin Knowlin for a touchdown, and junior Patrick Long missed an extra point and a field goal. And the Crimson’s special teams troubles are not a recent...
