The Yale Daily News has a preview of the Bulldogs' game at Dartmouth that includes this from Yale defensive lineman Clay Patterson (LINK):
“At the defensive level it’s going to come down to stopping the run. Then when it gets to a pass situation, our goal at the defensive line is just going to be containing (quarterback Derek Kyler), keeping him in the pocket and putting pressure on him to make a throw. We’ve got some good defensive backs, like Rodney Thomas II ’21, who can make some plays on the ball, so as long as we get in (Kyler’s) face and force him to make some bad decisions to throw the ball I feel like we can get him rattled early. With (John) Dean ’21 coming off the end, he has a bunch of (quarterback) hits this year so if we can get some of those early we can get him off his game.”

It's a good story so I figured it was coming. The Waco newspaper has a lengthy story about Ivy Leaguer-turned-Big XII receiver Drew Estrada '20 HERE.

EXTRA POINT
As I type this I can hear our robotic vacuum cleaner tooling around the first floor of the BGA World Headquarters. It wakes up at 7:30 each morning and does its thing for an hour each day, seven days a week, generally without complaining. (It will beep for help if it gets tangled in a USB charging wire.) Apart from regularly emptying its canister and removing fur from you-know-who that gets tangled in the roller brush, the thing just plain works. I may be jinxing it, but "Robo" has performed like a charm for a year-and-a-half and we wouldn't think twice before replacing it if/when it stops working. There aren't many things you buy that far exceed your expectations. Robo has been one of them.
