...three should start against Princeton this weekend, but their absence makes Yovicsin's task difficult. The Tigers have put together an impressive offense during the last two weeks, and they are unbeaten in Ivy play.

I think Dartmouth will have to show a little better passing attack than it did against Harvard, and if it does, the Elis could really get stung. But they're playing in the Yale Bowl, where, according to Bob Blackman. Yale has an automatic two-touchdown advantage. Oh well, the Bulldogs...
