FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS: Cornell will be playing its first non-Saturday game since Thursday, Nov. 23, 1989, when the Big Red played Penn on Thanksgiving Day. The traditional Thanksgiving series ended with a 20-6 Big Red victory in Philadelphia. Prior to that game, the last non-Saturday Cornell game came in 1965 when the Big Red topped the Quakers 38-14.

NOW THAT’S DEFENSE: The Big Red went into halftime struggling defensively against a high-powered Brown attack that came into the game averaging 464 total yards. After the Bears piled up 308 yards in the first half en route to a 24-14 advantage, it didn’t look good for the Big Red. However, whatever adjustments were made at halftime seemed to work perfectly. Brown managed just 95 yards in its 33 plays in the second half and overtime as the Big Red rallied for a 38-31 win in the extra session.
