If you set your DVR to record the Late Show with Stephen Colbert last night there's a chance it cut off before Dartmouth coach Buddy Teevens and former player Elliot Kastner '13 showed off the Mobile Virtual Player tackling dummy. At least that was the case up here on the mountain where our DVR was ready to shut down because of the length of the NFL game, which turned the Late Show into, well, the Later Show. Fortunately (or unfortunately if feels like this morning) I managed to stay awake and saw that the DVR was about to punt and called an audible.
At about 1:18 Eastern the MVP made its late-night debut. Here are a few screenshots taken from our DVR and from the online version of the show, which you can watch HERE for the next few days or so.
Bottom line: Colbert was Colbert and Teevens and Kastner did a fine job but the MVP was the star of the show ;-)
