The 1999 tug-for-the-jug lived up to the hype and excitement of the previous 40 meet ings. As has been the case since 1997, the visiting team walked off the field leaving the home squad and its fans stunned. After lead ing 21-7 at halftime, Ithaca (7-2) quickly saw its lead deplete in the second half, losing to the Red Dragons, 26-2 I, Saturday in front of a crowd of more than 10,000 fans. In the first half, Ithaca outgained Cortland 250 to 135 in total offensive yards. How ever, Ithaca was unable to capitalize on any opportunities and did not score a single point in the second half. "It was tough," senior tight end Todd Rob bins said. "Offensively and defensively, we feed off each other.
