Previous records show little hope for the Crimson today. With the exception of last week's tie with the Elis, this fall has brought a succession of soccer reverses to the eleven which, at the start of the season, because of veteran material, was considered a title contender. Haverford has beaten both Cornell and Yale, while the University lost to Cornell 0-1, and barely succeeded in playing a no decision affair with Yale. Haverford tied Princeton, while the Tigers routed Harvard three weeks...
This afternoon at 3 o'clock the University soccer team will play Haverford in their final Intercollegiate Soccer League contest. The game this afternoon comes rather as an anti-climax following last week's ding-dong tie battle with Yale. Neither the University nor Yale can win the league title, but the outcome of today's match may settle both the leadership and the cellar position in the final standing of the rival soccer outfits...
...only opponent this year against whom Yale has not scored. . . . When the end finally came, Harvard was still standing under its own goal posts rolling back the Blue storm that pressed seeking victory. But that last white chalk line that marked the difference between triumph and a tie still remained uncrossed. . . . But after all it was a tie game, and neither honor nor dishonor should go to either eleven."--Harry Cross, New York Times...
...Never in all my football experience have I seen a gamer team than the Harvard eleven which, in holding Yale to a scoreless tie, gave an exhibition of desperate, defensive play which will certainly be long remembered by all those present."--Charles E. Brickley...
With the exception of a scoreless tie in 1879, the Elis proved dominant in the encounters played between 1876 and 1882. In 1876, they won, three touchdowns to one field goal; in 1878, Yale won by a single field goal; in 1880, the Crimson was downed by a field goal and a touchdown; in 1881 by four safeties; and in 1882, the New Haven outfit conquered by one field-goal and three touchdowns to the Crimson's two safeties.
