In a decisive matchup on Saturday, Fordham University’s football team outclassed Georgetown with a score of 31-3. Jack Capaldi led the Rams’ offense, passing for a total of 222 yards and two touchdown throws. This victory marked a hopeful turn for Fordham, who raised their record to 2-9 overall and 2-4 in the Patriot League, winning two out of their last three games.

Fordham previously ended an 11-game losing streak on November 2 by defeating Colgate 20-14. Following that game, the Rams faced a narrow defeat against Bucknell, where they lost 28-27 in an exciting finish that went down to the final moments. However, Saturday’s game against Georgetown offered no such drama as Fordham swiftly secured a commanding 17-0 advantage.

Georgetown, now at 5-5 with a 2-3 league record, struggled offensively in this matchup. Quarterback Jacob Holtschlag was able to throw for 253 yards, and Cam Pygatt played a notable role, catching seven passes for 135 yards. Despite a promising start to their season at 4-2, the Hoyas have found themselves in a challenging position, having lost three out of their last four contests.

With the Rams’ recent performance, they have demonstrated resilience and a renewed fighting spirit as they aim to finish the season strong. The win against Georgetown could be a significant morale booster, setting the tone for their upcoming games.
