Ithaca wins back the Cortaca Jug
This
year, the “biggest little game in the nation” was decided by 23
points as Ithaca beat SUNY-Cortland 40-17 and brought the Cortaca Jug back
to Ithaca for the first time since 2004.
It was the Bombers' fourth straight game scoring 40 points or more. Both the offense and the defense played impressively; the offense gained 534 yards total and the defense held Cortland to 281 yards. The offensive attack was led by junior quarterback Dan Juvan, who had by far his best game this season, connecting on 12 of 16 for 306 yards and two touchdowns.
