The Good, the Bad & Ugly: Penn vs. Dartmouth

THE GOOD: David Park and Kyle Wilcox

In the longest game in Ivy League history, the play that saved the Quakers from defeat was a block by senior linebacker David Park with less than a minute to go in the fourth quarter. Park shut down Dartmouth's Riley Lyons's attempt for a game-winning field goal at the end of regulation play to push the game into its first overtime of the afternoon. But that wasn't Park's only big play of the day.With 6:16 left in the second quarter, the senior recovered a fumble by Dartmouth quarterback Dayln Williams and ran it all the way for an 84-yard touchdown, putting the Red and Blue up 14-7 in the first half and sending the Quakers on their way to a 37-31 victory in the fourth overtime.

Junior defensive back Kyle Wilcox stepped in late, coming off the bench and making huge plays for Penn. Wilcox ran for a total of 94 yards in his relatively short time on the field.

THE BAD: The four overtimes it took to end this game

Was it the missed opportunities that colored Franklin field on both sides or the too-evenly matched teams that pinned the Big Green against the Red and Blue in a four-hour back-and-forth?

THE UGLY: Connor Loftus's missed field goal

A 42-yard field goal attempt turned into a 52-yard attempt after a failed running play by Wilcox. But coach Al Bagnoli decided to go for a field goal anyway. However, Loftus missed the kick short. This set up Dartmouth for a final drive to beat the Quakers, but their kicker's final 21-yard field goal was blocked. There would be two more missed field goals, and all of them more ugly than the next.
