Turnovers obviously did us in but this defense is not playoff caliber. Too young and undersized up front. Outside of Dobbs, not very impressed , especially compared to last year.

Burn the tape immediately after the final whistle. I guess the Ivy League isn't ALL crappy either. That narrative might want to be filed away for a little bit. Fifteen tight ends sent to the NFL. Just from Harvard.

Silver lining, we will roll in the PL after this fiasco....probably cost us a seed though unless we beat Army and things break right. They're not getting a seed.

We need to end this Polar Park nonsense (and I'd say that even if we won by 30).
There's been absolutely zero atmosphere. It never once sounded loud on the broadcast. The cameras have never once panned to the stands.
My guess is the school like the benefits they get with the city and WooSox and will continue this game even if it takes away from the game itself. But for those who care about just the game, there's nothing good about this.
By the way, don't think Coker has caught one ball in the second half. Credit to Harvard. Dominated us on the field and in the booth.

Disappointed but not surprised. Saw Harvard v, Brown & was impressed. This game has served as a brutal dose of reality for many observers.

OK, if we don't get seeded - so what. First they need to win the PL to even get into the post season. First things first.

I really don't want to travel for a 2nd, quarter, and semi game. Have to take care of the PL and God help Army we better come out ready at West Point.
This night have been our worst game since Ches'first year. Wish we heard some boo birds.

Everyone please stop whining about Polar Park. Harvard is a much better football team. They kicked our ass at Polar Park and they would have kicked our ass at Fitton. Our young D-line got steamrolled by their O-line all game. They had receivers wide open all game. Their coaches figured out Sluka at halftime and shut him down the rest of the game. Going forward every D-Coordinator we play against will be studying this film and implementing the Harvard gameplan.

Matt could've run for 15-20 yards easy on each of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd down throws. Bizarre way for the offense to bow out there...

We had to beat them in other ways last year in Cambridge. The option to just pull it and run as a 3rd or 4th option automatic 1st down cheat code isn't always there against certain teams. Lafayette is another one of those teams.

Thank God for our seven team league with an autobid. Lafayette and Fordham games are now appointment viewing.

I was At game. Sluka had no chance tonight besides Coker which was a great call. Need to adjust quickly. pL will be easy but army and beyond will be challenge. Defense needs to clean a lot up

Harvard wss better tonight, but not "much better" unless helped out by our errors. Without them, this is a different game. I don't know that sny of the teams we will play have the talent and luck neded to implement that game plan. Murphy had the better of Chesney tonight, but i doubt he will be coaching any of our future opponents.

Harvard 0 turnovers
Holy Cross 5 turnovers
That's the game right there.
Oddly enough, I think had we not roughed the punter and gotten the ball back at midfield with around 11 minutes left and down 35-21, we find a way to win the game.

From the opening kick off we got our butts kicked and were out coached all game. Outside of the Coker grabs, we pretty much got dominated in every possible aspect. The dLine and secondary are just too young / undersized. Injuries to Haskins and Jarmlo definitely showing. Love the younger guys but they’re overmatched / inexperienced. Playing 2 freshman in the secondary and it shows. We need to get Spinogatti some reps. The kid is a MONSTER. Not impressed with the LBs outside of Dobbs.
