It was on artificial turf and dry. I marched on it at halftime. We knew it was a 5th down but from the other end of the field it looked like the refs were calling a penalty and for whatever reason there was a replay. If the band knew it was a 5th down, the players and coaches should have.

Conceding the game was a pretty common sense move.

Cornell showed more class than Colorado did in 1990 vs MIZZOU.

Actually, plenty of people and teams *do* show sportsmanship and choose not to win unfairly...but it happens mostly when there's no money on the line, when it's not at the highest level.

Lou Young, Captain of the Dartmouth team was my Grandfather. Pretty cool to see him on video when he was even younger than I am. I heard the story many times while growing up, even cooler to see the footage!

No, Cornell was ranked second, undefeated, and riding a long winning streak while Dartmouth was 3-4, thus making this a pretty heavy upset

This differed from the CU v MU game in that the team was going by the sideline marker and it showed 3rd down. CU had the opportunity to run a play that may have still scored instead of stopping the clock.

Mizzou played on the same field, with the same cleats that Colorado had. It was Colorado's own fault for downing the ball on fourth down because they weren't paying attention. McCartney may have been a Mizzou man, but he was GUTLESS in this situation, as was the Big Eight.
