Watch the ESPN film sometime. It is incredible!!! The stories of the people in the game and other famous Yalies and Crimson. Yale was 16th in the Nation and up 22 - 0. This is he best sports film I've seen in a long while. It covers the entire game and the times of our country. Wow!

Overtime is a weird thing, since the momentum can quickly shift in overtime. For example, Minnesota in 2006 had a lot of momentum over Penn State going into overtime, but a missed extra point followed by a pass interference call knocked the wind out of the Golden Gophers' sails. Penn State won that game 28-27.

Yale was their own worst enemy. They dominated the game and the stats. Unfortunately, the one stat they dominated that finally made the difference was their 6th fumble. Everything, including the clueless refs by the way, went Harvard's way those last 3-4 minutes. When Harvard tried their onside kick, the clock showed 42 seconds. After they recovered the kick, which should have taken 5 or 6 seconds off the clock, the scoreboard showed 42 seconds. They ran their final play with 3 seconds on the clock. Good job officials. (Does it show that almost 50 years later I'm still bitter?)

It's OK to be bitter when the officiating created a situation that would not have happened if the officials had called the game correctly. It's not even a matter of judgment, but simply making the correct call, or no-call, at the correct time. Cozza should've listened to Dowling and allowed him to play defense on that last drive. He would've found a way to stop Harvard.

[ely10az] Oh come on! Lol!!! I have watched the documentary on this, "the American Experience" as I recall; how one of those defensive players who took it upon himself to try and remove the Harvard quarterback by trying to twist his head off. How many penalties did he receive and years later admitted it. Interesting that there were 3 Yale players who were also interviewed about the game (the interviews were conducted and inserted into the game footage where they offered up there assessment of there teams play, including all the penalties by this one player) and commented about this one player. It was really humorous.

There was no overtime in major-college football until the bowl games at the end of the 1995 season. Ivy League football was still in what we call Division 1-A or FBS in 1968. The reason they said they "beat" Yale was because they were underdogs going in, and trailed by 16 points with 42 seconds left, but still somehow rallied to tie the game. It felt like a loss to Yale, even though they (and Harvard) finished unbeaten and Ivy co-champs.

The announcer made a mistake. The first touchdown was followed by a two point conversion, making the score 8-0 not 7-0. But I am guessing after their next touchdown Yale missed the extra point, giving them 14 as the announcer said.

Scoring questions: why did Yale go for two after their third score? Worked but seems like an odd time to do so. Then, I understand why Harvard went for two down 22-6, but why kick after the second score merely cutting it to 22-13? They made it, but were still down two scores. I guess we weren’t ready for analytics yet!

Fun Fact: Brian Dowling (The QB for Yale in this game) finished 8th in the Heisman Trophy voting that year, getting 15 first-place votes. (Huh. So Clint Frank and "Laughing" Larry Kelley weren't the two people that voted for him. Interesting.....) BTW, he wouldn't be the last Eli to finish in the Top 10; RB Rich Diana would finish 10th in 1981.

Do you have a copy of the 1972 game? That was the year Dick Jauron from Swampscott, Mass. was the star running back for Yale. Jauron led the Ivy League that year in touchdowns and average 117 yards/game and turned pro the next year, after 3 years at Yale. He became a good punt returner in the NFL.

Nothing against Harvard, but the pass-interference penalty that gave them their 1st 2-point conversion was a B-S call. Complete nonsense. Didn't happen. So, you take away that freebie, and Harvard can't achieve its miraculous tie. Which, in truth, it didn't. Officiating in all sports left a lot to be desired back in those days. This is a good example of a "game of the century" that actually didn't happen. It was created by horrible officiating.
