We had some surprises in the eight games that made up the slate of games with Ivy combatants in week one. We also had teaser-type games that started out interesting, and ended as expected.
1) Yale
The Elis have opened seasons looking like world beaters before during the Tony Reno era. But their 56-28 thrashing of Lehigh on the Mountainhawks home field was really something.
2) Princeton
The Tigers were somewhat shaky at times in their 27-17 win over San Diego. But QB Chad Kanoff had a stellar game and Princeton was playing without John Lovett and Charlie Volker.
3) Penn
The Quakers looked bad in the 1st half, but I wouldn't draw too many conclusions from this game.
4) Harvard
Losing to URI is no shame this year. But more troubling is the Crimson looked like the same team that could not rack up essential points that they were last season.
5) Brown
The Bears offense looked resurgent against Bryant. But Bryant is just not that good.
6) Columbia
The Lions won, and they were the better team. But they need to play more consistently.
7) Dartmouth
There's really nothing to learn from the Big Green's game at Stetson.
8) Cornell
The Big Red lost big and the Delaware probably took it easy on them.
