It was far from the best half of football Yale has played this season but Geoff Dunham returned a fumble 57 yards for a TD and Chris Blohm turned a Patrick Witt screen pass into a 16-yard TD to put Yale up 14-10 at halftime.
A 48-yard punt return by Gio Christodoulou gave the Bulldogs a chance to add to the lead. However, Witt missed a wide open Jordan Forney in the end zone and Philippe Panico missed a 40-yard field goal.
Yale has had two lost fumbles, one leading to Princeton's only touchdown and missed more than a dozen tackles in the first half against the last-place Tigers. Princeton has outgained Yale 272-167.
Former Yale running back Calvin Hill was just recognized for winning the Doak Walker Legends Award. Now the undefeated 1960 Yale football team is being honored. There was also a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new locker rooms named in honor of former Yale coach Carm Cozza.
