QUICK HITS
• The Cornell football team has already surpassed its win total from the last two seasons combined, but Brown has had its number for the better part of a decade. The Big Red will attempt to turn the tide when the two teams meet on Saturday, Oct. 22 at 12:00 p.m. at Brown Stadium in Providence, R.I.
• The game will be broadcast on Fox College Sports, while local listeners can tune in to WHCU 95.9 FM/870 AM to listen to Barry Leonard and Phil Mahoney on the call.
• The Bears have won eight straight and 13 of the last 15 meetings overall between the two programs.
• Cornell has won two games on the road already this season after just three in the previous four seasons combined, but to equal that stretch it will need to snap a six-game skid in Providence (last win, 10-7 in OT in 2002).
• After opening the season with three straight wins, the Big Red has lost consecutive games to teams with a combined record of 9-2: to defending Ivy champ Harvard (4-1) on the road, 29-13, and to Sacred Heart (5-1) at home, 31-24.
• The latest loss saw the Big Red rally from a 31-10 deficit in the third quarter to within 31-24 and had two possessions to tie or take the lead.
• Junior safety Nick Gesualdi had a pair of interceptions to lead a defensive effort that saw the Big Red create five takeaways on the day.
• Gesualdi now has nine career interceptions, tied for ninth on the school's all-time list.
• Against a defense that had allowed just six second half points through five games, the Big Red scored twice with a punishing ground game that piled up 257 rushing yards, the second-highest total in any game under head coach David Archer '05.
• Only the 260 yards last season in a 44-24 loss to Brown accounted for more.
• Three Big Red players had at least 75 rushing yards and a touchdown against the Pioneers, with sophomore J.D. PicKell posting 95 yards on 22 carries and a touchdown.
• Sophomore quarterback Dalton Banks ran 15 times for 87 yards and a touchdown and junior Jack Gellatly carries 12 times for 75 yards and a score.
• Despite playing without the team's leading rusher (Chris Walker) and leading receiver (Ben Rogers), the Big Red scored 24 points and gained 374 yards of offense.
• Cornell got a huge hand from its special teams, particularly All-America punter Chris Fraser.
• Fraser averaged 44.6 yards on eight punts, with six being downed inside the 20 and three going at least 50 yards, including a pair of 61-yard punts.
• Along with freshman place-kicker Nickolas Null, who had three touchbacks on his five kickoff attempts, and a defense that created five takeaways, Cornell won the starting field position battle by 17 yards against Sacred Heart.
• Like Cornell, Brown will be looking to snap a losing streak of its own, having dropped four straight contests.
• The Bears are coming off a 31-7 defeat at the hands of Ivy leader Princeton.
• Head coach Phil Estes has been one of the most successful and consistent coaches in the Ancient Eight over the last two decades, winning three Ivy titles in his 19 years on the Brown sideline.

BANKS, FRIMEL, FRASER TAKE HOME IVY WEEKLY HONORS (Oct. 3)
32848
• Sophomore quarterback Dalton Banks was named Ivy League Football Offensive Player of the Week for the second straight week, and had plenty of company on the list of weekly award winners from the conference.
• He was joined by junior linebacker Kurt Frimel (Defensive Player of the Week) and senior punter Chris Fraser (Special Teams Player of the Week) as weekly award winners.
• Banks tied a school record with five touchdowns in the 39-38 victory over No. 25 Colgate. He helped lead a comeback from down 28-5 in the first half by completing 25-of-45 passes for 454 yards and four scores while also running for a touchdown. 
• None of his completions were more important than his final one - a perfect 19-yard strike to Collin Shaw in the back right corner of the end zone that gave the visitors their first lead with 0:28 remaining. 
• The 454 passing yards rank eighth in a single game in school history, while his four passing touchdowns were one shy of a school mark. 
• Frimel had a career-high 10 tackles with 2.0 for a loss and a sack in the win over No. 25 Colgate.

• He then plugged a cap and corralled a Colgate runner for a 1-yard loss on fourth-and-1 from the Cornell 42, giving the ball back to the Big Red and setting up Banks' heroic throw to Shaw that proved to be the game winner. 
• Seven of his 10 tackles on the day were on plays that gained two yards or less, including a stop for no gain on a third-and-1 late in the third quarter than set up the offensive possession that allowed the Big Red to get within 38-33 entering the fourth.
• Fraser punted three times against the Raiders and pinned the defending Patriot League champs inside their own 7 all three times. 
• He averaged 36.0 yards per punt and made Colgate start at their own 2, 7 and 4. 
• The last of those, early in the second quarter, set the scene for Frimel's sack on third down to effectively start the Big Red comeback.
