"Really, I was just throwing the ball up, and our receivers were making ridiculous catches," Wilford said. "I didn't really have to aim it. I was just heaving it up and they were just going to get it all the time. I was impressed."
Morris also came up big on the final drive of the first half. Wilford hit him three times in all on that drive, including a conversion on 4th-and-10. The play set up a back-breaking Harvard touchdown right before the end of the half.
Wilford also managed to find room for Cremarosa in Harvard's passing attack. Cremarosa, whose previous best game had been his 3 reception, 60-yard performance against Fordham, was up to the task.
A holding penalty put the Crimson at 2nd-and-21 during the second quarter. Wilford found Cremarosa open on the far sideline sandwiched in between two Dartmouth players, for 17 yards.
Cremarosa ran virtually the same route on the next play, with similar results, bringing the ball to midfield.
Though a Harvard turnover killed that possession, Cremarosa later made huge catch on 3rd-and-8 that led to Harvard's seventh touchdown.
Despite Patterson breaking the all- time receiving record of former teammate Colby Skelton'98, the day belonged to his younger mates.
