In its ninth season under head coach Frederick Dunlap, the team compiled a 5–5 record. John McCabe and Bob Clark were the team captains.[1]
The Red Raiders won their first three games against Division I-AA opponents and became a constant presence in the weekly national rankings, reaching as high as No. 10 in the poll released October 2 (a Colgate bye week). A streak of three losses at the end of the year, however, dropped them out of the rankings and resulted in a .500 season record.
The team played its home games at Andy Kerr Stadium in Hamilton, New York.

gollark: Most personality tests ask questions which are basically just asking you which personality traits you have, which is silly.
gollark: The second version was intended as more of a personality test with no specific "right" answers, which is why it said "personality test" at the top.
