called only one game wrong out of
ten. But•a couple of ties confused
the issue slightly. So at the end
of the two early season weekends
we have 15 right, 3 wrong, and 2
ties—a percentage of .833.
Things aren't quite so clear
this week but here goes--Penn
State over Cornell by one touch

over Cornell by one touchdown.
Colgate's Red Raiders will roll
on over the Dukes. The Boys
from Syracuse should prove too
