Fordham still managed to get points on the board as sophomore placekicker Brian Colsant nailed a 31-yard field goal to cut the lead to 37-20 with 13:58 left in the fourth quarter.

After punting on its next possession, Fordham took control of the ball at its 36. And with Georgia at the controls, the Rams only needed four plays to light the scoreboard up once again.

Creer caught a ball for a six-yard gain, and Lundy followed with an 11-yard carry up the middle. Georgia then completed a lob down the right sideline over Alford to McDermott. Next, Georgia found Creer behind sophomore cornerback Dan Miree for a 31-yard touchdown and a 37-27 game.

After yet another Harvard punt, senior linebacker Isaiah Kacyvenski and the Crimson defense came up huge.

After a completion of 13 yards to Creer and a 16-yard carry by Lundy, Fordham found itself at Harvard's 34. But Kacyvenski picked off Georgia at the 27. Kacyvenski's fourth pick of the season seemed to ice the game for Harvard, but once again the Crimson offense could not finish the job.

On first down, Patterson took a reverse from Menick as Harvard tried to make something happen with a trick play. The Rams would not be fooled, however, as they forced Patterson out-of-bounds at the 24 for an eight-yard loss.

Two plays later, the Crimson punted the ball back to Fordham. Starting at their 45, the Rams got to the Harvard 15 in just 1:31. Fordham could not punch it in and settled for another Colsant field goal to make it 37-30.

With 3:59 left, up only seven points and having failed to get a first down in five consecutive possessions, Harvard desperately sought to keep the ball out of Georgia's hands.
