Quincy picked up another pair of points in the start of the third quarter when a botched snap to the Currier punter resulted in a safety. Moments later, the rich got richer as Hatamiya fed tight end Dave Ramsey for a 35-yard T.D. The extra point was good...

Nicholas, who also ground out 91 yards to enjoy a fine day on offense, caught the two-point Hatamiya conversion pass. Don't tell the officials, but Nicholas also centered the snap on the conversion attempt...

Cornell placekicker Ron Rejda, normally reliable, missed a pair of field goal attempts in the final quarter that would have had the Harvard side of the stadium reaching for Gelusil if successful. A Jeff Lawrence center snap which arched over Crimson punter Steve Flach's head bounded out of the end zone for a safety, midway through the fourth quarter, closed the Big Red to within a touchdown and a two-point conversion.

With the ball on the Yale 29, Restic put his quarterback, Eric "End Zone" Crone, at tailback while Rod Foster called signals. But Foster backed off the ball at the line of scrimmage and the snap went back to Crone, who rolled out and found Dennis Sullivan deep in the endzone for a score. Or, for a more contemporary example, Brian Buckley's 67-yd touchdown run against Army last Saturday, a perfect combination of the right runner and the right blocks-in short, the right play...
