ITHACA, N.Y. -- Take a look back into Cornell football's 49-35 win over Princeton at Princeton Stadium on Saturday, November 2.

PLAYER NOTES

• With his 262 passing yards, senior Jameson Wang moved into fourth place on the school's career list with 6,192 yards, surpassing Dalton Banks '19 (6,162).
• Wang scored his 25th career rushing touchdown, becoming the fifth Big Red player and first quarterback to reach that milestone.
• His rushing touchdown gave him 154 points, making him the seventh Big Red player to surpass 150 points in a career.
• With his 293 yards of total offense, Wang is now 172 shy of moving into second place with his total of 7,822. Next up is Ricky Rahne '02 with 7,994.
• Sophomore Samuel Musungu's 82-yard pass reception from Wang was the sixth-longest pass play in school history and longest since Delonte Harrell '22 went 89 yards for a touchdown on a pass from Richie Kenney '22 against Yale in 2019.
• It was also the longest play from scrimmage in Big Red history that did not result in a touchdown. The previous longest was an 81-yard rush by Jeff Johnson '87 in 1986, also against Princeton.
• The play was Cornell's third-longest ever against Princeton, behind only an 88-yard rush by George Peck '39 and Whit Baker '40 on a lateral play in 1937 and an 87-yard run by Baker two years later.
• Musungu now has 55 catches for 660 yards and six touchdowns in 2024. The reception total is already 16th in a single season, while the yardage total ranks 24th. Only eight players have scored more than six receiving touchdowns in a season.
• Musungu is now 133 yards shy of reaching 1,000 for his career. He would become the 27th player in school history to reach that milestone.
• Sophomore Ryder Kurtz tied a school record for tight ends with his two touchdown receptions against the Tigers.
• Kurtz's four receiving touchdowns are the most in a season by a tight end, while his 29 catches (chasing 33 by Matt Sullivan '17  in 2016) and 315 receiving yards (chasing 468 by Matt Robbert '24 in 2022) are also in play.
• The 165 receiving yards by Musungu marked the 150th 100-yard receiving game in Cornell history and the 16th-most in a single game ever in Carnelian red.
• Junior Doryn Smith's 30-yard pass completion to classmate Robert Tucker III was the first completion by a non-quarterback player since Ben Rogers '17 hit Jake Jatis '18 for 23 yards in the 2016 season finale. It was the longest pass play by a non-quarterback since ... earlier in that same game when Rogers threw a 58-yard touchdown pass to Chris Walker '19.
• Sophomore Alan Zhao is now 25-of-26 on PAT kicks and has upped his season scoring total to a team-best 43 points.
• Senior Hunter Sloan, who entered the game with 2.5 career sacks, nearly doubled his total with two against Princeton.
• Junior Robert Tucker III (second), senior Eddy Tillman (third) and sophomore Ean Pope (fourth) each scored on the ground.
 

TEAM NOTES

• The Big Red offensive line did not allow a sack for the fourth time this season and the third time in Ivy contests. The last time the Big Red allowed zero sacks in four contests in a single year - 2006. The last time it did so three times in an Ivy season - never.
• Cornell's six sacks are the most in a game since also registering six in the 2022 season opener at VMI and are tied for the most in a contest in the past dozen years.
• Four different Cornell players scored a rushing touchdown, the first time that many Big Red runners found the end zone in a single game since 2005 when Ryan Kuhn, Shane Kilcoyne, Luke Siwula and Anthony Macaluso each hit paydirt against Columbia.
• The Big Red offense produced at least three touchdowns both rushing and passing in the same game for just the seventh time in school history and the first time since doing so in a 56-40 loss at Brown in 2000. The only other time it had at least three scores through the air and on the ground against the Tigers was in 1967 as part of a 47-13 triumph.
• This is the second time this season that the Big Red has posted at least 275 yards passing and 175 yards rushing in the same game (Yale). It is the 16th time the Big Red has hit those milestones in the same game, with four of those occurring with senior quarterback Jameson Wang at the helm of the offense.
• Cornell has surrendered three sacks this season and is threatening the school record for the fewest allowed (nine in 2021).
• The Big Red has given up one or fewer sack in all seven contests this season, the first time in school history it has done so.
• The offense was 8-of-11 on third down for 73 percent. That's the highest percentage of third-down conversions with at least 10 attempts since Cornell was 11-for-14 (79 percent) in a 1988 contest against Harvard.
• Cornell's seven successful PAT kicks were the most since 2011 against Columbia (eight) as part of a 62-point outburst. .
• Ten different players were credited with at least a half-tackle for loss and 23 had a tackle.
• The 98-yard scoring drive for the Big Red in the third quarter culminating in a 2-yard rushing touchdown by Ean Pope was the longest since a 99-yard touchdown drive against Yale in 2022 ended with a 36-yard touchdown pass from Jameson Wang to Nicholas Laboy. The Big Red has had one three drives of 98 or 99 yards during the 21st century.
