Indeed, it was only fitting that the senior tailback, who grew up in the shadow of the Bowl, should do the honors. For the record, his 172-yard performance this day gave him 1159 on the season, an Eli record. Off the record, he was, like last year, dominant. So was his team...

...well-informed Yale defense were like horses with blinders--they had but one thing in sight, and that was tailback Paul Connors. But despite flagrant keying on him by Yale, Connors still managed to rack up 76 yards, thus finishing the four-game (2-2) Crimson slate with 507 yards rushing...

Princeton, of course, did have some say in the matter, particularly tailback Bobby Isom, whose stats say it all: 44 carries, 209 yards, one touchdown. Isom ran pretty much when and where he pleased, and while he is good, the Crimson defenders made him look like the best back ever to don shoulder pads.
