Coaching Staff Roster Game summaries at Cornell To kick-off the 1914 season, the Pitt team traveled to Ithaca, NY to take on the Big Red of Cornell on Saturday, September 26. Cornell was led by third year coach Albert Sharpe and came into this game with a 1–0 record, having beaten Ursinus 28 to 0 on September 23. Cornell would finish the season with an 8–2 record. This would be the last football game played between these two schools. Pitt had a 2–4 all-time record against the Big Red. The Pittsburgh Press reported: "Displaying at times a mid-season form that dazzled her opponents and taking advantage of every Cornell misplay, the University of Pittsburgh football eleven duplicated its performance of one year ago and sent Cornell down to defeat here this afternoon by a score of 9–3....the visiting team clearly outclassed the Cornell machine in all-round football, and pulled away with another victory that was even more unexpected than that of last season."

Pitt kicked off and forced the Big Red to punt. Guy Williamson received the ball on his 30-yard line. "Running like the wind, dodging, sidestepping, and stiff-arming, the Pitt quarterback worked his way down the field behind an interference that was really remarkable. The last guardian of the Cornell goal was bowled over by an avalanche of blue-and-gold-stockinged athletes." Pitt led 6 to 3 as Andy Hastings missed the point after. The second and third quarters were scoreless as both teams possessions see-sawed between the thirty yard lines. "Seven Cornell men were put out of the running before the final whistle blew...It was the power and aggressiveness of the Pitt interference that put so many of the local players hors de combat." In each quarter Pitt advanced the ball inside the Cornell 20-yard line. A
