Bagnoli has said he was surprised to see his team ranked ahead of Brown, which finished third in the poll with 91 points. Harvard preserved its perfect season with second-half heroics last year against Brown, rallying from a three-touchdown deficit to win 35-34. But preseason prognostication has the Bears bringing much the same team that had the Crimson’s back against the wall. Brown’s offense is particularly potent in its current incarnation...
That's the way it ought to have happened, at least--and that's the way it did happen on 111 earlier shuttle flights, 27 of them by the venerable Columbia. But only 15 minutes from its planned touchdown, more than 200,000 ft. (61,000 m) over Texas, the 22-year-old ship suddenly and fatally deconstructed itself, taking the lives of its seven crew members with...
...Cape Canaveral the conditions were perfect for landing, with temperatures in the low 70s and a light breeze blowing, well within NASA's wind limits. The families of some of the seven crew members had already been shown to the runway, assembling for their close-up view of the touchdown. The pit crew that takes custody of the shuttle and shepherds it back into its hangar was standing by to claim Columbia as soon as the crowd cleared. In Mission Control in Houston things were similarly routine. "Many of us came in today marveling at the fact that...
Penn State quickly scored the first touchdown against Oklahoma, showing roughly what Switzer meant when he called State "a physical, smash-mouth type of ball club" that "splatters you." The wishbone running of Freshman Quarterback Jamelle Holieway was well splattered, but then Holieway blithely dropped back and threw a 71-yd. touchdown pass to a wonderful tight end named Keith Jackson. Oklahoma's most splendid players are on the defense: Nose Guard Tony Casillas, Linebacker Brian Bosworth and Safety Sonny Brown. Penn State could not match them, and in fact had to do heroic work just to keep the Sooners...
...John Hannah, had ever before heard a coach say that he enjoyed watching them play. The season's first loss was to the Bears in Chicago, 20-7, when the Patriots' offense alighted no longer in Bear territory than it took Runner Craig James to complete a 90-yd. touchdown play. "We were still looking for an offensive identity then," says James, 25, who is seldom identified anymore as Eric Dickerson's running partner at Southern Methodist University. In the same way, economical Passer Tony Eason is losing his original handle as one of five quarterbacks drafted three years...
