...battled back to within seven with less then four minutes left to play. It would all have been in vain, however, if a Yale player hadn't fumbled an on-side kick with less than a minute to play, giving Harvard another possesion--and the chance to put another touchdown on the board...
After losing its first six contests of the 1985 campaign, Cornell rebounded to triumph three times in its final four outings. It is worth noting that five of the Big Red's seven losses last season came by one touchdown or less, and that last year's next-to-last place finishers will have 33 returning lettermen--including all 11 defensive starters--giving the squad the experience it lacked in 1985 to win the close ones...
...Bears' first touchdown was the fans' best moment, albeit the Cowboys' worst. After a pass from Quarterback Danny White, Wide Receiver Tony Hill weaved 7 yds. with the ball, only to fumble.

The rewards are not limited to locker-room privileges and the honor of being addressed as "Mr." by an All-Pro tackle. Most N.F.L. stadiums are filled at kickoff time, and last year the owners of the 28 franchises divvied up some $1.2 billion in TV contracts. Understandably, the N.F.L. barons have been loath to share the spoils. More teams mean smaller slices of the TV pie. Businessmen who want...
