Vinny Russo contributed one of two red-zone interceptions as Colgate rallied to a 20-17 victory over Holy Cross. Russo's pick with 3:20 left in the third quarter halted what could have been a game-clinching drive for Holy Cross. The Crusaders led 17-13 and had first-and-10 at the Raider 18 when Russo dropped into coverage and grabbed his first career interception. The 7-yard return set the stage for Colgate's winning drive as the Raiders turned Russo's pick into a 14-play, 83-yard scoring march that culminated in Jake Melville's 1-yard keeper with 11:26 showing. Russo added seven tackles, including a shared tackle for loss.
