...Columbia quarterback Craig Hormann, and the jumping was done by a Harvard defensive line that registered seven sacks and hit Hormann on almost every play, making Sir Mix-A-Lot proud on the way to a 27-12 Crimson victory in front of 2,283 fans at Wien Stadium in New York City.Columbia (1-7, 0-5 Ivy) struggled to stave off an aggressive Harvard (6-2, 5-0 Ivy) pass rush and was unable to move the ball on the ground against the stingiest rush defense in the Ivy League.
