It’s a beautiful day here at the Yale Bowl for today’s contest between Yale and Holy Cross — a far cry from the weather the Bulldogs found at Cornell last week. This will be the 31st meeting between the two schools, Yale has won 26 of the first 30 and are 19-4 in New Haven against the Crusaders. Last season the Elis romped the Purple and White in Worcester, 38-17, behind a then-school record 256 rushing yards and five touchdowns from Mike McLeod.
