...defense was calm and disciplined, waiting for one of the two Leopard quarterbacks to make a mistake. While the play-action fooled occasionally, for the most part a trio of white Harvard jerseys trailed the Lafayette quarterback from snap to harried pass to turf. Odds were that harried pass was going to eventually land in the arms of a Crimson defender. And three times during the game, that’s exactly what happened...

I too am savoring the calm as the plane traverses the eye. Ivan's is a big eye, some 40 miles across, and a mean-looking one too, occluded by glowering clouds. Jack Parrish, the senior NOAA scientist in charge, thinks some of these may be half-digested remnants of an earlier eyewall around which Ivan has regrouped.
