With 26 seconds left in the Harvard-Cornell game, Big Red quarterback Ricky Rahne's 18-yard touchdown pass to Keith Ferguson preserved the Big Red's unbeaten record (4-0, 3-0 Ivy) and dashed the hopes of the Crimson (2-2, 1-1 Ivy).

The thriller stood alone, however, in a week of blowouts throughout the Ivy League.

Quarterback James Perry's record-breaking performance led the way for Brown in a 53-30 rout over Princeton.

Perry threw for 432 yards, completing an Ivy-record 42 completions in 62 attempts. His stellar performance earned him the distinction of Ivy League Offensive Player of the Week.

The Brown victory was the first for the Bears (3-1, 2-1 Ivy) at home against Princeton (1-3, 0-2 Ivy) since 1987 and only the second win in the last 12 meetings between the schools.

Michael Malan's four touchdowns and 69 rushing yards paced the Bears' high-powered offense, which gained 545 total yards in the game. Steven Campbell led the Bears' receiving corps with 12 catches for 143 yards. The 53 points allowed by Princeton were the most since 1981.

Jeff Boulanger had a strong game at defensive tackle with five tackles--three for a loss--and a sack.

Jon Blevins led the Tigers' aerial attack with a solid 11-12, 141-yard day after relieving Tommy Crenshaw. Phil Wendler paced the Tiger offense with 11 catches for 124 yards.
