For whatever crazy reason, Harvard almost always brings its A game for Dartmouth, and we don't always do likewise.

There were a few games when I was hoping that we would really trash the Crimson, only to win holding on by our fingernails. The Hail Mary game (and how about those Commanders?) was one of them.

That said, Saturday is not one of the game when I'm thinking that will win by double digits (although it would be great if we did). I think we are really going to have to play mistake-free football to beat Harvard. We can do it. But I would be fine using up the sixth of our nine lives on Saturday for another close victory.

... another 1997.

That was a good Dartmouth team (finished 8-2, 6-1), but won a lot of games by low single digits.

We had an excellent kicker.

We won one game (Penn) by a miracle play (although it occurred in the first half) that made Sports Illustrated.

We felt enchanted.

And then Harvard came to Hanover on our homecoming and kicked our asses. It was Murphy's first title.

I'm just feeling 1997 vibes again this season...
