Randolph threw for 249 yards and three touchdowns in Holy Cross’ first contest of the season, a 45-42 loss to No. 4 Massachusetts, on Sept. 6. Last season, Randolph torched Harvard for 339 yards and four touchdowns, including a 40-yard strike with 19 seconds remaining that gave the Crusaders a 31-28 victory, their first over the Crimson since...
