Brickley Gives Tufts Great Praise

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

That the Tufts football team out-played the University team in every department of the game is the opinion of C. E. Brickley '15, captain of the 1914 eleven. "It was the first time I ever saw a Harvard team forced to forward passing in its own territory in desperate attempts to advance the ball. In my opinion there was too much hesitation in running plays and too much crudeness in handling the ball.

"The wonderful defense shown by the University eleven when Tufts was held for downs on the one-yard line, together with Robinson's pretty drop-kick were the redeeming features of the game. But they could not offset the weakness of the line in stopping the Tufts backs.

"Tufts certainly deserved to win the game from every standpoint. It was a case of a well-drilled Harvard team with a few simple plays meeting a well-drilled Tufts team with a large assortment of formidable plays, including shifts, delayed passes, double passes, etc."
