THE MATCHUP: Cortland travels to Ithaca for the annual "Cortaca Jug" rivalry game to conclude the regular season. Cortland enters with a 5-4 record and is hoping to improve its resume' for a possible ECAC bowl game berth. Ithaca, 8-1 and ranked 20th nationally by D3football.com, has earned an NCAA playoff berth by winning the Empire 8 league title. The Bombers clinched the league title last Saturday with a 24-23 overtime win at Salisbury after the Sea Gulls missed the game-tying extra point.


THE SERIES: This is the 55th time that Cortland and Ithaca are playing for the Cortaca Jug. The schools actually started playing in 1930 and have met every year since 1948. Ithaca leads the overall series 39-29-3. In 1959, however, Cortland captain Tom Decker and Ithaca captain Dick Carmean originated the Cortaca Jug as the prize for the winner of the game between the schools located about 20 miles apart on Route 13. Each year, the game's result is printed on the Jug. The first Jug ran out of room for scores in the mid-1980s, necessitating a second Jug that sports the most recent results.

Ithaca leads the Jug series 34-20, which does not include the Bombers' 1988 NCAA playoff win over the Red Dragons. Cortland, however, is 10-7 versus the Bombers since 1996, including wins each of the last three seasons. Cortland is looking for its first four-game winning streak against Ithaca since winning five straight from 1955-59, capped by a win in the inaugural Cortaca Jug game at Ithaca in 1959.

Of the last 16 games in the series (1997-2012), 12 have been decided by eight points or less. In the previous 54 Cortaca Jug games, Cortland is 5-4 in games decided by 1-3 points and 10-7 in games decided by 4-8 points, but Ithaca is 8-2 when the margin is 9-16 points and 15-3 when a team wins by 17 or more.

Last year, Cortland stopped Ithaca on 4th-and-goal from inside the Red Dragons' 1-yard line with less than a minute remaining and defeated the Bombers, 16-10, in front of 7,635 fans at Cortland. The Red Dragons trailed 10-0 early in the second quarter after a Garrett Nicholson 34-yard field goal and a Clay Ardoin 50-yard TD run, but came back to score the final 16 points. Mike DeBole made three field goals (30, 35 and 31 yards), while Mike Humphrey's 9-yard TD catch from Chris Rose put Cortland up 13-10 less than a minute into the fourth quarter.

Cortland won 27-3 at Ithaca in 2011 for its biggest victory in the series since 1996 (41-13 home win) and largest margin of victory at Ithaca since 1955 (28-0). In 2010 at home, Cortland rallied from a 17-3 third-quarter deficit to win, 20-17. Ithaca won the three previous Cortaca Jug games from 2007-09, with the 2008 win in Cortland denying the Red Dragons a perfect 10-0 regular-season record. Cortland won overtime games at home in 2006 and at Ithaca in 2005.

In 1988, Cortland hosted Ithaca is what was billed as the "Upstate New York Game of the Century" since both teams entered the game with 8-0 records. Cortland won that game, 21-20, but lost at Ithaca in the NCAA Div. III quarterfinals three weeks later, 24-17, to finish 11-1. Ithaca went on to win the national title. In a 1991 Sports Illustrated football preview story, the phrase "biggest little game in the nation" was used in reference to the Cortaca Jug game. And in 1992, Cortland won at home, 22-20, versus a Bombers' team that entered 8-0 and had won the national title the previous season.


CORTLAND CAPSULE: Cortland improved to 5-4 overall and concluded its NJAC season with a 5-2 mark with a wild 62-49 win over visiting Morrisville State. The game featured Cortland school single-game records for most combined points (111) and most combined total offensive yards (1,263 – 641 for Cortland).

Senior tailback Justin Autera finished the game with 30 carries for 133 yards and a touchdown and three catches for 109 yards and a score. He is the first player in school history to register both 100 rushing and 100 receiving yards in the same game. Sophomore Dylan Peebles ran 11 times for 171 yards (15.5 yards per carry) and three touchdowns.

Sophomore quarterback John Grassi, making his first collegiate start, completed 24-of-34 passes for 347 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions. His 347 passing yards are the seventh-highest total in school history. Junior wide receiver John Babin caught 15 passes for 160 yards and two touchdowns. He finished one reception short of tying the school single-game record.

Linebackers Tristan Laurore and Matt Ambrose each made 10 tackles and defensive end Tom Hagan recorded two of Cortland's three sacks. Senior Ben Krauz blocked a punt and Andrew Tolosi forced a fumble. Nick Daley made 2-of-3 field goals and all eight of his extra points. Autera was named ECAC Southeast and NJAC Offensive Player of the Week, while Daley was ECAC and NJAC Special Teams Player of the Week.

Three quarterbacks have started for Cortland this season. Junior Tyler Hughes is 52-of-99 passing for 570 yards and four touchdowns with one interception. He was injured at Rowan two weeks ago and did not play last week versus Morrisville. Junior Tyler Augliano has played in five games with one start and is 63-of-125 passing for 960 yards and nine touchdowns. He was injured late in the first half at Brockport Oct. 19 and has not played since. Grassi played one snap versus TCNJ and took over in the third quarter at Rowan when Hughes was hurt. He is 31-of-43 passing (72 percent) for 381 yards and four scores with no interceptions.

Hughes is the team's leading rusher with 70.6 yards per game (494 total). He rushed for 203 yards – the most ever by a Cortland quarterback – in a home win over William Paterson Sept. 21. Peebles averages 49.1 rushing yards per game and Autera averages 44.2 yards per game. Babin is easily the team leader with 64 receptions for 1,000 yards and 11 touchdowns. Jon Mannix, who hasn't played due to injury since the third game of the year, still ranks second with 19 catches, while Peebles and Nate Burgo have each caught 11 passes.

Laurore leads Cortland with 91 tackles and is second with 11 tackles for loss. Tolosi has 67 tackles and six forced fumbles and Ambrose has made 61 tackles. Daley is 10-of-11 on field goals and 29-of-30 on point-after kicks. He also took over the punting duties in mid-season and averages 36.2 yards per kick. On kickoffs, Daley averages 61.5 yards per boot with 19 touchbacks in 51 attempts.

Head coach Dan MacNeill is in his 17th season with the Red Dragons. His overall record of 113-60 (.653) ranks him first at Cortland in career victories and winning percentage. He won NJAC Coach of the Year honors in both 2008 and 2012, and also was a finalist for Liberty Mutual National Div. III Coach of the Year honors in 2008 after leading the Red Dragons to the league title and the NCAA quarterfinals.

MacNeill has guided Cortland to five NCAA playoff appearances (1997, 2005, 2008, 2010 and 2012) and six ECAC bowl games. His teams have finished at least tied for first in the NJAC six times (2005-08, 2010, 2012), including outright NJAC titles in 2008 and 2012. His 2008 squad was honored with the Lambert Meadowlands Trophy and the ECAC Div. III Team of the Year awards. MacNeill is a 1979 Cortland alumnus and played linebacker and defensive tackle from 1975-78. An assistant coach at Division I-AA Villanova University from 1984-1996, MacNeill is Cortland's 11th head coach since the school's modern era of football began in 1924. MacNeill served as linebackers coach at Villanova and was the team's defensive coordinator from 1988-96.


A LOOK AT...ITHACA COLLEGE: Ithaca clinched the Empire 8 title and a bid to the NCAA playoffs in dramatic fashion with a 24-23 overtime win at Salisbury last Saturday. The Bombers trailed 10-0 in the second quarter, but came back with 17 unanswered points to take the lead. The Sea Gulls knotted the game at 17-17 in the third quarter and had a chance to go ahead with less than a minute left in regulation but missed a 28-yard field goal.

In overtime, Ithaca took a 24-17 lead on a 9-yard TD pass from Tom Dempsey to Jared Prugar. Salisbury scored a TD on its possession, but missed the extra point to end the game.

Freshman Evan Skea rushed for 102 yards on 28 carries and Dempsey completed 15-of-25 passes for 149 yards and two scores. Vito Boffoli caught five passes for 51 yards and Prugar had four receptions for 48 yards. The Bombers' defense limited Salisbury's vaunted offense to 296 yards of total offense and 4.2 yards per rush. Linebacker Will Carter made 18 tackles and forced a fumble. Safety Tom Scanlon and linebacker Josh Duggan finished with 10 tackles each.

In three games played, Skea is averaging 88 rushing yards per game. Rakim Jones has rushed for 78.2 yards per game and five touchdowns in six games. Dempsey is 89-of-148 passing (60 percent) for 1,080 yards and nine touchdowns and Phil Neumann is 55-of-97 passing for 753 yards and four scores. Joel Lynch leads the team with 33 catches, followed by Boffoli with 32 and Prugar with 31.

Linebacker Jake Santora has made a team-high 86 tackles in eight games but did not play last week at Salisbury due to injury. Carter is second with 82 tackles, including a team-high six sacks. Cornerback Mike Vulcano leads the team with four interceptions.

Sophomores Garrett Nicholson and Max Rottenecker have shared kicking duties this season. Nicholson is 8-of-9 on field goal attempts, including 6-of-6 inside 30 yards. Rottenecker is 5-of-7, including 3-of-5 from 40 yards or longer. They each made two field goals in a home win versus St. John Fisher. Nicholson has handled PAT duties and is 17-of-20 on the year. Mike Lopez averages 34.8 yards per punt and has pinned opponents inside the 20-yard line 16 times with only three touchbacks. Sam Carney is one of the nation's top punt returners – he ranks 10th nationally at 14.6 yards per return and has scored a touchdown. Josh Oliver also has a punt return for a TD to his credit.

Head Coach Mike Welch is in his 20th season at the helm for the Bombers. His overall record is 152-61 (.714). Last season, he took a leave of absence in mid-October to have heart bypass surgery. Mark McDonough, Ithaca's defensive coordinator, served as Ithaca's acting head coach for the last four games, but the results of those contests (two wins, two losses) are credited to Welch's record. As a player, Welch earned two letters as a running back after missing most of his sophomore season due to injury. Also a lacrosse player for the Bombers, he graduated from Ithaca in 1974 and returned to his alma mater as an assistant football coach in 1984.


NOTEBOOK:

* Cortland is tied for third nationally in Div. III in turnover margin at plus-2.0 turnovers per game. Through nine games, Cortland's defense has intercepted 15 passes and has recovered 14 fumbles, while opponents have 11 interceptions and four fumble recoveries. Wabash leads the nation at plus-2.8 per game (36 takeaways/11 giveaways in nine games), followed by Wisconsin-Whitewater at plus-2.1 (25 takeaways/6 giveaways in nine games). Linfield is tied with Cortland at plus-2.0 (23 takeaways/7 giveaways in eight games).

* Cortland's defense has recorded 34 sacks and 81 total tackles for loss through eight games this season. The Red Dragons are tied for fourth nationally in Div. III in sacks per game (3.8) and tied for 16th in tackles for loss per game (9.0). Cortland has recorded 30 or more sacks in 12 of the last 13 years, with the only exception a 23-sack total in 2012. The school record for sacks in a season is 52 in 2005 (sacks have been officially tracked at Cortland since 1982).

* Cortland has returned three kickoffs for touchdowns this season. No Red Dragon team prior to this season (since full offensive stats were first tracked in 1963) had returned more than one kickoff for a touchdown. Justin Autera has played a role in all three scoring returns this season. At home versus William Paterson, he returned the ball eight yards, then handed to Andre Green who covered the final 85 yards. At Brockport, Autera went 13 yards, then gave the ball to Dylan Peebles for the last 85 yards of a combined 98-yard return on the game's opening kickoff. At home vs. TCNJ, Autera did all of the work with a 97-yard return on the opening kickoff of the second half. Cortland narrowly missed a fourth TD return last week when Autera went five yards and Peebles 82 yards before being stopped at the Morrisville 8-yard line.

* Cortland's average time of possession this year is only 26:41 to opponents' 33:19. The Red Dragons have held the advantage in time of possession in three games this year, with last week's 31:31-28:29 advantage over Morrisville the largest margin. Ithaca, conversely, ranks eighth nationally in Div. III in average time of possession at 34:02 per game.

* John Babin is the school record-holder with 28 career TD receptions in just 25 games played. Babin currently ranks second at Cortand with 2,208 career receiving yards. Steve Ellis in first place (2,375 from 1991-94). Ellis' totals do not include 153 yards on 11 receptions in three ECAC playoff games, since per NCAA rule postseason games have only counted toward records since 2002.

* John Babin leads Cortland this season with 64 receptions for 1,000 yards and 11 touchdowns. His 15 catches last week versus Morrisville were the second-highest total in school history and one shy of tying the school single-game record of 16 set by Frank Goroleski versus Albany in 1978. Babin's 64 catches are fifth-most in school history; he set the school record with 72 receptions in 2011. He's also the fourth Cortland player to reach 1,000 yards in a season; he also holds that record with 1,183 receiving yards in 2011.

* John Babin has caught at least one TD pass in 16 of his last 17 games. His school-record streak of nine straight (last eight games of 2011, first game of 2013; DNP in 2012) was snapped at home versus William Paterson Sept. 21. Since then, he has caught at least one TD pass in seven straight games.

* Justin Autera ranks third at Cortland with 2,550 career rushing yards. The school record is 3,455 yards by Dave Cook from 1981-84, followed by Steve Davis' 2,826 yards from 2001-04. Gareth Grayson's 2,498 yards from 1986-88 do not include his 448 rushing yards in two 1988 NCAA playoff games, since per NCAA rule postseason games have only counted toward records since 2002.

* Justin Autera is tied for third at Cortland with 192 career points scored. Dave Cook leads with 268 points from 1981-84, followed by Omar Darling with 222 points from 1994-95/1997-98. John Babin has moved into eighth place at Cortland in career scoring with 172 points, including a team-high 70 this season (11 TDs, two 2-point conversions).

* Junior strong safety Andrew Tolosi set a new school single-season record with his sixth forced fumble last Saturday versus Morrisville. The previous record of five forced fumbles was set by both Travis Costin in 2003 and Eugene Iozzino in 1979. Tolosi is currently tied for first nationally in forced fumbles per game along with Rowan's Chris Alvarez. Tolosi started 11 games at cornerback last season, but made the transition to safety during the preseason this year.

* Freshman linebacker Tristan Laurore leads Cortland with 91 tackles this fall. He is nine away from being the first Red Dragon to reach the 100-tackle mark since Cody Allen registered 105 tackles in 2010. Brian Haas holds the record for most tackles in a season by a Cortland freshman with 105 in the 2007 season.

* Cortland ranks 23rd nationally in Red Zone Offense at 86.7 percent (26 scores in 30 trips). Since 2000, no Cortland team has enjoyed a success rate better than 82.2 percent. However, this year's 30 red-zone trips are the fewest by a Cortland team in that span. Here's a look at Cortland's year-by-year red-zone success rate (including overall scoring rate and touchdown scoring rate) since 2000:

2013 (current): 26-of-30 (.867), 18 TD, 8 FG (.600 TD%)
2012: 39-of-51 (.765), 23 TD, 16 FG (.590 TD%)
2011: 45-of-61 (.738), 40 TD, 5 FG (.656 TD%)
2010: 40-of-58 (.690), 30 TD, 10 FG (.517 TD%)
2009: 30-of-41 (.732), 26 TD, 4 FG (.634 TD%)
2008: 41-of-50 (.820), 32 TD, 9 FG (.640 TD%)
2007: 37-of-45 (.822), 27 TD, 10 FG (.600 TD%)
2006: 38-of-47 (.809), 28 TD, 10 FG (.596 TD%)
2005: 33-of-46 (.717), 24 TD, 9 FG (.522 TD%)
2004: 20-of-31 (.645), 16 TD, 4 FG (.516 TD%)
2003: 33-of-44 (.750), 24 TD, 9 FG (.545 TD%)
2002: 42-of-54 (.778), 33 TD, 9 FG (.611 TD%)
2001: 30-of-37 (.811), 27 TD, 3 FG (.730 TD%)
2000: 28-of-37 (.757), 17 TD, 11 FG (.459 TD%)

* Since the start of the season, nine Cortland players who have appeared in at least one game have suffered season-ending injuries. Out for the season are senior punter Mike DeBole, junior wide receiver Jack Delahunty, sophomore free safety Andre Green, freshman offensive tackle Dan Lictus, sophomore wide receiver Jon Mannix, junior linebacker Michael McCarthy, sophomore long snapper John Sadallah, sophomore wide receiver DJ Spencer and senior defensive end Joe Kirchner. It is hoped that DeBole, Delahunty, Lictus, Mannix, McCarthy and Sadallah will qualify for medical hardship waivers to re-gain a season of eligibility since each played in three games or less, all before the halfway point of the season. In addition, junior quarterback Tyler Augliano has not played since suffering an injury at Brockport on Oct. 19.

* Cortland is in its 14th season as a football-only member of the New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC). The Red Dragons compete in the State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) in most of their other sports. Cortland was the first non-New Jersey school to join the NJAC for football, starting in the 2000 season, and was joined by Western Connecticut State, Buffalo State, Brockport and Morrisville.

However, Buffalo State has since left the league for the Empire 8, Western Connecticut is a new member in 2013 of the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference (MASCAC) for football only, and Brockport will leave the NJAC after the 2013 season to join the Empire 8. Southern Virginia University, located 464 miles from Cortland in Buena Vista, Va., will be joining the NJAC as a football affiliate member in the 2014 season. The Knights are currently a provisional NCAA Div. III member and competed as an independent member of the National Athletic Intercollegiate Association (NAIA) from 2003-11.

Cortland has finished at least tied for first in the NJAC six of the last eight years (2005-08, 2010, 2012). The Red Dragons were outright league champions in 2008 and 2012 and won a tiebreaker to earn the league's NCAA automatic bid in 2010. Since the start of the 2010 season, Cortland is a combined 27-5 in NJAC games. Cortland can finish as NJAC quad-champions (with Rowan, Brockport and TCNJ) if TCNJ defeats Rowan on Friday and Brockport loses at Morrisville on Saturday.
