Yes, I was there and it was a very exciting game that Columbia came that close to winning, but those two fumbles at the end of the game were killers. Paul Rice is a terrific player for Yale--definite pro prospect. He should go in the first couple of rounds. As for the Lions, they played their hearts out and their offense was outstanding in the second half under the leadership of a very good freshman quarterback named Sean Brackett. He is a terrific athlete with a very bright future. Same for running back Leon Ivery who broke one for about 75 yards.

Basically, our program is a joke, I can't remember such a demoralizing loss, although Cornell about 5 years ago at home comes to mind - the team collapsed.

Maybe Columbia needs to use these resources in another place. Why bother having a program - does it reflect positively on the school?

For what it is worth, I tore up the remaining tickets - why attend a game that we have no reasonable chance of winning.

Even though we had some good performances by Hackett and the RB - when both of them fumble the ball at a crucial part of the game - that hurts. Honestly, I thought we had no chance of losing, but Columbia finds a way.

Most students in the Ivy league could not care less about football - so there is one problem. Columbia athletic administrators - do they help us? The student athletes on the team - where do we find these guys? We seem to have a penchant for fumbling at the worst possible moment. The coachs - talk big - but what is the final outcome? I supposed that the administrators will keep Wilson for another 2-3 years - with the same results, then we'll start the same cycle all over again.

Guess Fohei is right - what is the point?

Your no Lion fan, we never give up. By the way the names Brackett not Hacket.

Coach Williams spoke very highly of Brackett after the game.
