Sep 18, 2010 - 8:19 PM NEW HAVEN, Conn.(AP) -- Patrick Witt passed for 407 yards and scored on a 1-yard run on the final play as Yale opened its season by defeating Georgetown 40-35 on Saturday.

Witt completed four passes on the drive, which began at the Yale 36 with 1:27 left. The fourth, a 6-yarder to Gio Christodoulou, put the Bulldogs at the Georgetown 10. Alex Thomas' 9-yard run set up Witt's score.
