Tackling The Issue P - Barnes 6-151, 2 TD; DeValve 5-35. Due to its team defense mentality and its ability to get off the field on third downs, Princeton doesn’t have a single player in the Ivy League Top 9 in tackles. However, two of its top three had big efforts in the 2015 game against Yale. Luke Catarius (currently 10th in the Ivy League with 60 stops) and four-year starter Dorian Williams (250 career tackles) both had career-best 15 stops in the 35-28 home loss to Yale last year. On The Record John Lovett is making a run at Keith Elias’ program record of 19 rushing touchdowns. The junior quarterback, who has rushed for at least one touch- down in ever game this season, needs four over the last two games to tie the mark. Ironically, the last Tiger player to make a run at that record was also a Princeton quarterback; Quinn Epperly rushed for 18 touchdowns during the 2013 Ivy championship season. Lovett, who didn’t play in the final three games last season due to injury, is averaging 2.1 rushing touchdowns per game over his last 11 games.

  • TIMELINE of YALE FOOTBALL Updated As of February 2018
    TIMELINE OF YALE FOOTBALL Updated as of February 2018 Oct. 31, 1872 David Schley Schaff, Elliot S. Miller, Samuel Elder and other members of the class of 1873 call a meeting of the Yale student body. From it emerges the Yale Football Association, the first formal entity to govern the game at Yale. Schaff is elected president and team captain. Nov. 16, 1872 With faculty approval, Yale meets Columbia, the nearest football-playing college, at Hamilton Park in New Haven. The game is essentially soccer with 20-man sides, played on a field 400 by 250 feet. Yale wins 3-0, Tommy Sherman scoring the first goal and Lew Irwin the other two. Nov. 15, 1873 Yale and Princeton inaugurate what will become Yale’s longest rivalry. Princeton wins 3 goals to 0. Nov. 13, 1875 Yale and Harvard meet for the first time at Hamilton Park. The game is played under the so-called “concessionary rules”—15 players on a side and running with the ball permitted as in rugby, a round ball and only goals counting as in soccer. A crowd of 2,000 pays 50 cents a head—twice the normal price for a Yale game—to watch Harvard win 4-0. 1880 Walter Camp, in his third year as Yale’s delegate at the Intercollegiate Football Association rules convention, persuades the meeting to accept 11-man, rather than 15-man, sides. He also replaces rugby’s scrum with the scrimmage, which “takes place when the holder of the ball…puts it down on the ground in front of him and puts it in play by snapping it back with his foot.” Nov.

  • What's the Big Deal with College Football?
    What's the Big Deal With College Football? By Michael T. Benson What exactly is the allure of a fall afternoon, a rivalry game, a packed stadium, and grown men running headlong into each other at full speed? Given the successes of Coach Urban Meyer and his squad at the University of Utah, this year finds our state particularly engrossed in the spectacle known as college football. I’m always struck - especially at this season - by the enormous attention paid to the largest spectator sport in collegiate athletics. My fascination is mirrored by another unique phenomenon: nearly all of America’s great universities are - or once were - prominent in football. A quick glance at this week’s Top 25 rankings includes some of our country’s finest public institutions: Michigan, Cal-Berkeley, Wisconsin, Texas, and Virginia. Some might argue that Utah - with its advances in federally- funded research, its highly-ranked medical facilities, and its accomplished faculty, to name just a few indicators - should be included in that category as well. Douglas Toma of the University of Pennsylvania, in his thought-provoking Football U, attempts to define the powerful galvanizing force that is college football. While baseball may be considered America’s pastime, football - both collegiate and professional - has captured our nation’s attention and devotion in a manner unrivaled by any other team sport. The National Football League’s television contracts for coverage of its games exceed those of baseball, basketball, and hockey - combined. Despite the unmatched excitement of March Madness and the NCAA Basketball Tournament, can anyone argue that this year’s BYU- Utah contest wasn’t the biggest sporting event in our state since the 2002 Winter Olympics? And who can resist the hold-your-breath excitement of the black box mystery and its inner workings known as the BCS computer rankings? Well, maybe some can.

  • Introduction
    PART I Introduction CHAPTER 1 THE SEARCH FOR AN ALTERNATIVE AFFIRMATIVE ACTION POLICY The Search for an Alternative Affirmative Action Policy in American Higher Education In 1973 and 1974, a white U.S. military veteran named Allan Bakke applied to medical school at the University of California–Davis (UC Davis) and was twice rejected. At the time the student bodies of most American colleges and universities were overwhelmingly white, especially the professional schools, such as law and medical schools. In an attempt to remedy the underrepresen- tation of minorities, UC Davis had established an affirmative action program in the early 1970s, with the multiple goals of “reducing the historic deficit of traditionally disfavored minorities in medical schools and in the medical pro- fession,” “countering the effects of societal discrimination, increasing the number of physicians practicing in underserved communities,” and “obtain- ing the educational benefits that flow from an ethnically diverse student body.”1 In furtherance of these aims, the medical school at UC Davis created two separate admission pools: one for standard applicants and another for minority applicants. Sixteen of the one hundred seats in the entering class were reserved for the latter group.2 Bakke was born in Minneapolis in 1940 to a middle-class family of Scan- dinavian descent and was raised in Florida. His father was a postal carrier and his mother was a schoolteacher. He received a bachelor’s degree in engineer- ing from the University of Minnesota in 1962 and joined the U.S. Marine Corps after graduation. He served as an engineer in the Marines for four years, including a seven- month stint in Vietnam, earning the rank of captain.

  • From Football to Rugby—And Back, 1906-1919: the University of California-Stanford University Response to the “Football Crisis of 1905”
    Journal of Sport History, Vol. 11, No. 3 (Winter, 1984) From Football to Rugby—and Back, 1906-1919: The University of California-Stanford University Response to the “Football Crisis of 1905” Roberta J. Park* During the 1890s and early 1900s a debate of considerable proportions raged in the public press, on college campuses. and in educational, literary, and sporting journals over the game of “American Football.”1 The events and incidents, discussions and diatribes which led up to and surrounded what has come to be known as “the football crisis of 1905-06” have been exam- ined by several historians. A number of years ago Moore called the period between 1893 and 1913 “football’s ugly decades” and maintaned that the game reached its nadir in 1905. Lewis has suggested, however. that the American form of the game was so firmly entrenched that in spite of extensive agitation its banishment from college campuses was never a serious threat.
