On second-and-6, Yale junior quarterback Peter Lee, who completed 25-of-37 passes for 219 yards and a touchdown, threw as he was hit by Harvard junior defensive end Marc Laborsky. Johnson made the reception over the middle for a long gain to the Harvard 36-yard line.
Bartholomew got the call on first down and he ran for two yards to the Crimson 34-yard line.
On the next play, Yale was called for an illegal shift, which backed Yale up five yards and gave the Elis a long second-and-15 situation. Lee found junior wideout Tommy McNamara for an eight-yard gain to the Harvard 32 after the penalty.
Lee dropped back to pass again on the next play and, finding no one open, scrambled to his right all the way to Harvard's 14.
On first-and-10, Bartholomew gained five yards on an off-tackle play to the right side.
The Elis gave Bartholomew the ball again on the next play, and he gained only a yard to give Yale third down and 4 to go at the Harvard 8.
Harvard called a timeout to set up its defense before the next play. Whatever the Crimson discussed in the timeout, it didn't work.
