3rd and inches at midfield

  • For Princeton at the start of the second quarter. Terrell keeps it himself and pushes through the line for two yards and the first down. Into Dartmouth territory again.
  • Pete Ploszek lays a mean block at the line of scrimmage, upending a Dartmouth blitzer and sending him onto his head. With the extra time, Terrell launches a bomb downfield into the hands of Brigham, who hauls it in and brings it to the Dartmouth 22-yard line for a 26-yard completion. Brigham with 52 recieving yards on the day.
  • 2nd and 2 at the 14 after an 8-yard completion to Circle up the middle. Terrell keeps it again, rolls left, and picks up another rushing first down.
  • Now it's 3rd and 5 at the Darmouth 6-yard line following two consecutive running plays. Terrell in the shotgun, fires it in between two Dartmouth defenders to Brian Brigham, who somehow pulls it in at the one-yard line. It looked for a moment like he hadn't come up with it, and Dartmouth defenders were calling for an incompletion, but the refs signal a catch.
  • One of the Dartmouth assistants up in the coach's box bangs a fist against the glass after the call and shouts an expletive audible throughout the press box. I thought "The Big Green" was rated G.
