...fast track, we think the Crimson should win by about 24-14. The Indians are very much overrated and have not faced a good team yet. They won't be able to stop Harvard's ground game as Cornell did last week, and some of the surprises John Yovicsin is planning to unveil should enable the Crimson's offense to click well.

Yovicsin has that in mind--and so does Tufts.BOBBY LEO (15) weaves between tacklers on a first-half run against Holy Cross. Leo gained 145 yards and scored two touchdowns...
