...From then on, it was all Harvard. Running back Troy Jones put the Crimson up for good with a touchdown run late in the first quarter, and the Harvard defense shut down Columbia from then on. Jones and running back Chris Menick were the key contributors to the Harvard rushing attack that racked up 264 yards on 40 carries. Quarterback Brad Wilford threw for 190 yards to earn a victory in his first career start...
...heels of Menick and running back Chuck Nwokocha, each of whom rushed for more than 100 yards, the Crimson held a 23-10 lead late in the fourth quarter. With 3:56 remaining, Kacyvenski picked off a pass from Cornell quarterback Ricky Rahne at the Harvard six-yard-line, seemingly sealing the victory for Harvard. But the play was called back, and Cornell went on to score, cutting the Crimson lead to 23-17.

On its next possession, led by Menick's rushing, the Crimson drove down to the one-foot-line with seven seconds left. On the last play, Harvard Coach Tim Murphy chose to let Wilford run a sneak instead of allowing Giampaolo to attempt a field goal. The gamble paid off, as Wilford made...
...Crimson offense couldn't hold on. Freshman Brent Chalmers, in because senior Chris Menick suffered a knee injury and because the next three back-ups were injured as well, did a good job, but his lack of experience playing with Wilford hurt. On third-and-2 at the Penn 31, Chalmers ran too close to Wilford, and they collided. The ball popped out, and Penn recovered at its 37. The game-winning drive followed...
