Austalgia First Round Pick

One of my favorites.  Silas Bolden makes a block to spring Wisner free for a touchdown against Oklahoma, but then Wisner fumbles on the 5 into the end zone  where Silas Bolden had hustled down the field to celebrate, and he recovers and saves touchdown.

Sorry, one more, Jordan Whitingham hustle down that field 40 yds after a Quinn Ewers interception against TCU in 2023, knocks the ball out and saves disastrous turnover .  I just love hustle plays

Worthy also played a huge part in that play.

November 20, 1982- 

 

Great choice, brings back the memories.

In September 1982 I had just taken a job at a startup company in San Jose, employee # 149.  Many of our engineers and managers had graduated from Stanford, including the founders, and we also had a big contingent from Cal, so there was a lot of back and forth between them before the Big Game.

Stanford, with John Elway at QB, had kicked a FG with 4 seconds left to go ahead 20-19 and this was the ensuing kickoff, which was amazing.

My boss at work was a Cal Bear grad and was coming over for dinner that night.  When he and his GF got there I said "Congratulations on the game.  That was amazing."

He gave me a stink-eye look and said "What the hell are you talking about?  I went to Cal."

"Yeah, that's what I thought.  That was a great finish."

He said he had turned off the TV after "that effing field goal" - when I told him Cal ran the kickoff back for a TD with 5 laterals as the Stanford band ran onto the field he didn't believe me until I turned on the TV and we found a recap on a local channel.

He had missed one of the greatest plays in history.  LOL
