I didn't watch Yale-Cornell. I was just going through the write-ups and box scores. I have no idea if it was a chippy game and Cornell wanted to stick it to Yale.

Not likely that Reno refused to lend Swanstrom equipment (like, oh say... a kicking tee). The game was in Ithaca so Cornell should have had everything handy.

I didn't see Georgia-Alabama. But I did see Minnesota-Green Bay which pretty much went down in the same fashion.

I don't think that it's Tony Romo's job to make friends among other coaches in the Ivy League, but I can think of at least a couple other Ivy head coaches who would make it a point to score a touchdown with a minute left, already up 17.

Interesting that Swanstrom went the same way with no prior history against Romo.

As I said above, I don't have a problem with the call. There's a minute left. The other team is going to get the ball back and I expect Yale to play to the final whistle. Going for it on fourth down is acceptable in that circumstance.
