Opponent Roundup

Back from Colgate, a few links and then on to the jayvee game against Vermont ...

Here are yesterday's games, starting with next week's opponent. ... Albany gave UNH the expected tussle but the Wildcats outlasted the Danes as RJ Toman threw four more touchdown passes, giving him nine in the last two weeks. ... Elsewhere, not a bad day for the Ivies. ... Brown's win was a stunner from the point of few of allowing just seven points to a team that had torched Colgate for 42. ... Columbia's showing against a Fordham team picked to win the Patriot League hints at good things for the Lions. ... Yale's walkover against Georgetown was surprising only in that the Bulldogs did so much damage through the air. ... Princeton got off to a strong start before fading against The Citadel, but there are positives for the Tigers, to be sure. ... Ditto for Penn, which seems to have brought the hard luck of the past several years along into 2008. ... Cornell's win over Bucknell was by the skin of its teeth, but for a team with such a poor history on the road in recent years, that was a good win. ... Harvard's comeback win was impressive.
