Harvard's offense, in contrast to the defense, was full of faults, the most fatal of which was fumbling. Against a team playing faster and more accurate football than Pennsylvania, a dropped ball would result in a touchdown for the opponents. Attempts to correct this fault were made early in the season, and it is very discouraging to have it crop out now. The overeagerness of the forwards also cost Harvard the possession of the ball at critical times. Daly's generalship was open to criticism. He undoubtedly put dash into the team, and, as an individual player, was brilliant...

...first half, for example, they did not have the ball for more than a third of the time. In the second half, they felt the loss of the regular quarterback, Daly, who was injured. The backs frequently weakened on the defensive, and the forwards, who were forced back, would often put them out of the play. On a slippery field and against heavier opponents, the line-men played too high. But they were not responsible for the poor judgement shown in the second half when, with a strong wind at her back, 1901 failed to punt...
