...Williams returned an interception 18 yards early in the fourth quarter to bring Harvard within five points after a missed two-point conversion attempt. Yale added a field goal to push its lead to eight, but the Crimson, boosted by raucous fans, would not be quelled, registering a touchdown with just 3:37 remaining and tacking on a two-point rush by O’Hagan to tie the game. The squads entered overtime as the sun set on the unlit Yale Bowl and the crowd started to lose sight of the ball. A missed field goal, an interception...

Sophomore Cheng Ho and freshman Gino Gordon combined for 84 yards on 20 carries, but the real surprise came from sophomore Ben Jenkins, who managed 19 carries for 116 yards and a touchdown. Jenkins seems to have made a seamless switch from defensive back to running back.“[Jenkins is] good, he’s legit,” Murphy said. “We’ll have overall a better group of guys at running back this year than...
