BC Sports presents Los Angeles the UCLA Bruins in the Southern California Trojans the key man of the USC offense is a tailback obviously his name is Marcus Allen in 1981 he is better college football history Baker the first collegiate ever to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a single season 2320 123 keys so far he has scored 21 touchdowns he has fought 25 passes he's a one-man gang and he is the prime target today of the UCLA Bruins as they stay in the Rose Bowl fight [Music] you look down on the Coliseum in the city of Los Angeles it is a bit of an overcast day but it is quite warm for this time of the year in contrast to the kind of weather they had today in Ann Arbor Michigan and it's the big one as usual between the Bruins and the Trojans and this ABC Sports exclusive is brought to you by General Motors Corporation designing and engineering cars for a changing world by Paine Webber working to get the right information first by RCA color tracks to their time projection TV RCA will open your eyes and by the Continental insurance companies and their 12000 agents throughout USA so many times this particular ballgame has meant so very much UCLA 7 2 & 1 ranked 13th in the major polls USC 82 [Music] looking at the pac-10 standings with the Roseville on the end of a fragile limb USC you see way down there at four state ineligible washing the two teams Washington State and UCLA at five one and one now it is a little bit complicated when you try to figure out what happens today who goes to where let's put it this way if Washington State beats Washington in Seattle and Verne Lundquist is there today to give us some reports on it Washington State goes to the Rose Bowl period if UCLA Washington beats Washington State then UCLA will go to the Rose Bowl if Washington beats Washington State and USC beats UCLA then Washington will go to the Rose Bowl for a second successive year the only way the Trojans can go to the Rose Bowl is for the Trojans to beat UCLA Washington Washington State to play a tie-in see ya so the Rose Bowl is very much involved in this game as well as the game up in Seattle I'm sure most of you know by now that Iowa is in the catbird seat right now and 10 Ohio State beat Michigan 14 tonight leading Michigan State 16 to nothing and if Iowa holds on to win then the Hawkeye's will go to the Rose Bowl now let's turn our attention to this ball game the tailback position at Southern California has become the glamour position for this very successful football program and over the years the men who carry the ball out of the tailback position have made history going all the way back to Howard Jones days when they had the Thundering Herd they used to bring him the biggest guys they could find the play the offensive line and then they would find the swift fellow who could carry the ball with some degree of security and literally would say Sikkim that's the way USC plays power footballs McMahon on big man USC career rushing leaders you can see there with a man involved in today's game in second place a man Charles Wayne but let's go back in history and take a look at some of the people who have made history Mike Garrett Mike Garrett was the first tailback to win the Heisman Trophy at USC he led the Trojans and rushing for three straight seasons and went on to an outstanding career at Kansas City and San Diego in professional football my question the swiftest but he was sure and then came a Jay from San Francisco City College to win the Heisman in 1968 he came 17 hundred and nine yards in 1968 that was then a collegiate record and then Anthony Davis one of the most explosive of Southern California's winners six touchdowns in that memorable turnaround game against Notre Dame in 1974 Anthony Davis and Rickey Bell who moved from the full-back position over the tailback at All American in 1976 1900 and 57 yards in 1975 now with Tampa Bay and then Charles White who won the Heisman Trophy in 1979 a two-year all-american he went over a hundred yards 31 in his three years at Southern California as the tailback totaling five thousand five hundred and ninety-eight yards in his career now this man Marcus Allen you see here when he was a senior at Lincoln High School in San Diego area Marcus Allen was a quarterback in high school and he was a good one very good on the option play and many people felt could have played quarterback almost anywhere but he chose Southern California where he played fullback and did much of the blocking for Charles white and McDonald then he was moved to tailback in 1979 1980 he carried the ball 350 four times for 1,500 63 yards this year he has passed 2,000 yards it was a 13 yard run against the University of Washington Huskies last week in dreadful weather in Seattle that put him in the history books he has been a remarkable running back to this year John Robinson his coach calls him the prototype for this particular position with this particular team twenty-eight 123 yards and 20 touchdowns on the ground 25 pass receptions including an additional touchdown so number 33 comes into the ballgame today with all kinds of NCAA records already behind him and here is the one that gave Allen the record that he's so coveted the first man ever to go past 2,000 yards when you can be the first man ever to do something it is a very special moment and Marcus Allen is already there as another Trojan Road with us yes he got up at 5 o'clock this morning Frank they tell me they have sold over 90,000 tickets for this ballgame in the Coliseum I remember in 1967 well I think one of the greatest college football games I ever saw when Gary beeban won the Heisman Trophy OJ Simpson was in the hot Florida it was a 21 20 USC win USC won the national championship oh boy as a part of the preamble to this great traditional football game let's enjoy our national anthem [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] Blue UCLA with the gold blue and gold the scarlet and gold of course to Southern California and that color will move with one side of this baby up and the other side will be the other now let's talk about the ballgame right dog let's talk about the Southern California offense which has been conservative over the last two or three weeks well Keith it really has this thing with John Robeson he said he just a syndrome developed that he really didn't expect three things one his defense hadn't played as well as he had hope his uh they couldn't get the ball back to the offense and then his quarterback Mesa hurt the thumb of his left hand the elements up in Washington he said first but he no I'm running practically ever down and that's not my style of play and you'll see a different offense today so you're anticipating there's some first down passing early in the ballgame let me give you one statistic that just boggles my mind for John Robinson team out of 117 first down attempts 110 he will runs only seven passes so you can expect UCLA to look at that very cautiously and carefully now the Bruins beat him here last year on the tip pass play that free McNeill Courtin took in for the winning touchdown UCLA also last year helped Marcus Allen to 72 yards and nobody has done it since in fact and nobody had done it before that in 1980 so what Jett Hughes and his defensive planning at UCLA under Terry Donahue was to shut down the run you think they'll do the same thing - sure definitely I think key that they'll use numerical means to crowd the line of scrimmage and try to force Southern Cal into a passing game the key is can they disguise their coverages so that Mesa cannot pick them apart because all obviously they've watched Southern Cal play through the years they are resourceful and they can attack with a pass or run UCLA on the other hand now has been an opportunistic team they had a big big win over Washington as a result of Husky turnovers they got a tie at Washington State as a result of cougar turnovers 19 of 38 turnovers have produced 113 points for the UCLA Bruins with Tom Graham get quarterback the left hip let's give a perfect example against Arizona State they were able to get seven colonel was up into that ballgame Arizona State had been averaging one turnover ball game to keep what this means is this defense has developed has a knack of not only stopping opposing team but taking the ball away from that's a trait we all won in a defense at you and the Bruins now have made under Terry Donahue they're ranked 13th in the nation and it's a resourceful football team as we have just indicated to you because they come in here for the gym if they can win this ball game today they have a chance [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Oh genes under John Robinson comes into the Coliseum [Applause] [Music] so the two teams have come onto the playing field we're getting ready for the annual before we do let's have a look at the two campuses here's the season record of the UCLA Bruins they opened with a big win against Arizona a conference counter then they had a big big win at Wisconsin then Iowa beat up they beat Colorado Stanford beat'em Washington State tied up but since that time they've been impressive and I think the last two games are particularly impressive in California on the other hand dumped into first place in the nation [Applause] [Music] they get back on the right track with a big win over Washington State here in the Coliseum and then last weekend dreadful weather in Seattle they've had a horrendous period of weather up in the northwest they lose a serious record shows us see with a decisive edge in it last meeting was here a year ago when the UCLA Bruins wanted on the tip pass are referred to that Freeman McNeill brought on the dead run and they won the ballgame by a score of 20 to 17 this is one of those games Frank where you really have to be careful you got to sit down and talk to yourself and then don't get too jacked up well that's one thing that every coach Spears does his team is so jacked up a fired up as you say for this dipole game did they leave it on the ground earlier until you thinkin one or two good solid licks or tackled you hold the ball with both man [Music] be sure that you get by these first two three hopefully not leave it on the ground I look there at Terry Donahue as the Southern California Trojans will be kicking off to teres Bruins Steve Jordan will be the kicker UCLA's return people are chromic Carney and Jojo Townsel and it is party who has been doing most of the returning he has a rather decent average in returning kickoffs 20 almost 25 yards per return Townsel on the other hand is just over 21 so we're just about ready to play football with Charlie mop into your referee I'll check the officials for you as we have time here in this first quarter they play on real grass in the Los Angeles Coliseum it's the most comfortable afternoon in his party a wide receiver 17 where he is put down by Southern California here's the starting backfield unit for UCLA Tom Ramsey Frank Bruno who has been dinged up he starting today Kevin Nelson has had trouble finishing games because of injuries Joe Joe Townsel is a flyer outside and for McCarty is the split end who just returned that kickoff for the brewing they have put the ball at the 18 now on forward progress and here is your first from each play of the ballgame as UCLA operates out of the eye Bojan setup right now a five six man front and to make amends it comes out plainy what's the pass to the Senate and idiots good depends how he fumbles the football and the Trojans recover it at the 40 knocks the ball loose and chip Bank scoops it up each we were talking about the first play of the ballgame protecting the football it's a bootleg a very daring call on first down you can see 20 sticks colonel the brakes back inside Williams misses it but Pearlie come inside knocks the ball loose Eagles flying out Southern Cal has and the Trojans now we'll go from just outside the UCLA 40 [Applause] turnover shows up early in the ballgame it's Marcus Allen big hole inside the 30 to the 28 Roy foster the card opened the door for him John Major is your sophomore quarterback and left-hander god spencer is the full-back only a sophomore there's the man Marcus Allen John Comyn ah he's out of Hawaii Jeff Simmons you remember some of you I am sure the big game he had against Oklahoma its first down Southern California at the UCLA 28 Rowlands up there with a six-man front they take it inside to spend to the full-back and he's inside the 25 inside the 24 mows bar is a tackle at 275 for the Trojans Matthews a guard at 260 the center is Slaton at 250 pounds Roy Foster good one 265 Kalia daryl morey it is at 260 at junior and Fred Cornwell who was the hero of the Oklahoma game at 234 this season [Applause] it salad they'll be looking at third down and about to the defensive unit for UCLA Gary Morgan etemon Clemens Butler Montgomery Gorky you might find any of those along the front line with Turner line Sullivan and Rogers in the defensive secondary and you also will see Tom Sullivan safety man come up and play line support quite a bit they're down into Southern California is to cash in on a UCLA turnover in the first quarter of play just outside the word for Haiti from after town cells fumble Vasia gives the ball to a lifetime he is hit by sullivan at the 15 he tumbles down at the 10 it's another Southern California first down Southern Cal offensive line is known to be very very physical and mr. obvious on his first possession they are controlling not allowing any penetration but give Simmons the wide receiver the key block this from alley into the secondary some of the remarkable statistics for Allen we noted about the 2000 you can sees number one on the country averaging over 212 yards a game he's had a year well the historian first down and just outside the ten nature puts it in the air Simmons is over the idea can't hold on to the ball Mike burden was with him but it looked to me like he just flat dropped it kitten said look like Simmons pushed off the one thing we talked about the other day Simmons goes in and pushes off the defensive back and that is illegal let's watch it again Simmons number 29 is going to go down on the defensive back he cannot use his hands he knows that a pass has been called he must aboard the receiver now let's watch him see him push off his hands just a little bit my ass was any complete but its 15-yard penalty keep and loss of down Charlie mopping the referee he was the defensive back in the ball game that time number 29 offensive pass interference awesome down second down so Bruin having bad luck vitam now get a break Simmons uses his hands watching he comes down this simply puts his hands on Durden and gives him a shove and he got the flag right there flag was on the ground before the ball got there don't see that call too often it's second down just outside the 25 [Applause] Marcus Allen go and get in total of 20 12 minutes and 20 seconds to play in the first quarter Carl Morgan nose guard out of Houma Louisiana for UCLA a 239 pounds une yer made that stop and the Bruin coaches like him they certainly do they feel that he hasn't gotten the publicity that Chico has got me but number 40 Morgan you can see that he's coming inside most part number 60 truth is trying to scoot blocking but Morgan just continues and gets involved in the play along with some teammates from the 21 it is third down they have to go inside the one forever first down 20 down laser gonna put it out the pass was incomplete intended for number 19 for Southern California Timmy we're a freshman out of Compton and we're his presence in the ball game he's a speedster and it's surprised me a little bit to see it in so soon so now the Trojans will settle in for the field goal drive you don't think we should mention it UCLA came with a blitz laser didn't have quite enough time to load up and throw the ball accurately to the receiver 38 yard attempt for Steve Jordan from this distance he's three out of four this season plenty a leg on it and it is good with some points and that's a very important thing at 11:36 to go in the first quarter the Bruins fumble it the Trojans get three is a brutal [Music] the USC Trojans on a 38 yard field goal take a three nothing lead here in the first quarter after they've ruined bumble now let's see if the Bruins could move the ball again as dork and hammers it down there the pens out [Applause] comes to the plate just across the 2011 31 to go in the first quarter your defensive unit for USC Edwards Oh chica Estrella Del Rio linebackers along with Del Rio or Darby banks and Curley secondary browner Turner or West and Williams and you can find some cracks in that USC secondary this season the good passing teams have been able to find some as a Cormac Carney who was shaken up on the kickoff he is the prime kickoff returner for them and obviously a leading pass receiver for UCLA they will be hurt if they lose him he is caught 24 for an average of almost 19 yards per reception this season Ricky Kaufman who is 511 190 mm senior from Long Beach goes in he may be a little faster than Carney but particularly have the hands of Trani he's not able to catch the ball in the crowd as well as corner they go to the ground Nelson Kevin Nelson puffing up the middle getting the tackle from chip banks and he had a good hole from there Duvall love and Dave Odie in the middle of the line Marcus Allen who had four carries and 29 yards and inside the effort by USC that resulted in three points Keith it's interesting to me that Southern Cal has got a little coaching session going with a block of assignments evidently UCLA has surprised them with something they haven't shown the ball on defense wounds come up on second down and three after the 7 yard picked up by Nelson all goes to Kevin again the line of scrimmage from big 52 stepped in there Jack Del Rio freshman out of Hayward California to make the play the UCLA offensive front ding some a lot of fellas with chips and scratches and sore spots Duvall loved a freshman getting the call at guard today instead of Mike jelly there was a loss of the yard on that play it is now third down and four the ball is at the 27 inside for 27 Ramzi to put it up bomb cuts it off it is almost different he's very fortunate that class was not intercepted on the sidelines pattern because the USC man came through there Joey browner and had his hands on it so UCLA will have to fund it Joey Brown have played the pattern perfectly he laid back enticed Ramsey to throw the ball then he had the quickness to come in front and his keep hitching went right through his hands otherwise have been another break for Southern Cal Kevin Boyd if a sophomore out of Tulare will do the funding he's averaging 41 point three on his kicks in 1981 [Music] gets it out of there and it's a pretty good kick a high hanger forcing a fair catch for by Joey back at the Southern California 30 that was a 43-yard punt by point of a ABCs NFL Monday Night Football next Monday the Minnesota Vikings and the Atlanta Falcons if enough time for both ball club the job that much plant has done this year for that medicine ball club is really something special in the annals of it philosophy from a running possession type football team but grant has to completely a passive attack with Tommy Cramer he just had a sensational year so Southern California from the 30 now at 10:09 to go in the first quarter and leading three to nothing see what the Bruins do with their defense they've got a five-man front up then I here comes Sullivan up along the line a support that gives him a seven men are up so learn a lot major steps back to throw good protection looks at down fear great cats downfield by tenia fight UCLA man was in front of him seemingly had an opportunity to knock it away but white comes down with it for 16 yards right behind off it you can see exactly that Mazur has plenty of time but he and that let's make a careful perfect roll over the head to Turner right in Sullivan skews it right in the hands of Timmy white number 6 is one of the fine receivers of Southern Cal got a great burst of speed you see right there good concentration at the 46 it is a first down for Southern California a pullback Spencer and Spencer close to midfield his daddy was a fellow named dad Spencer whom I remember seeing some time back as a very fine heavyweight boxer Spencer has given Southern Cal a little bit of a new dimension he's a former tailback incidentally that has moved the fall back he's picked up on his blocking but he gives an extra threat to the southern calafate a some of the pressure off the Marcus Allen he gained for second down and six at midfield for the Trojans [Music] [Applause] [Music] goes and looks like somebody reached 27 it was reached in there and grabbed him by the ankle Blanchard Montgomery the inside linebacker from Northridge California but Allen gets enough for a Southern California first down at the UCLA 43 Allen now with 36 yards on five carries came into the game with 20 123 [Music] fullbacks Fenster the ball he's close to the 44 about three yards UCLA's defense is still trying to make something happen they're moving with four down linemen trying to get some penetration Southern Cal offensive line has been too successful and effective so far [Applause] [Music] one [Music] and Marcus Allen is parked behind the line of scrimmage momentum gets him back to the line of scrimmage it was Blanchard Montgomery number 27 making the stop for the Bruin Blanche's Montgomery is what a fine young linebackers and incidentally Keith he was a running back but he weighs 227 has four six feet they expect if they gonna win this ballgame he's got to have an outstanding game he is key for the defense of UCLA Timmy where is back in the lineup now for Southern California now alchemor number 22 is and white for the bottom the major stands up looks at more for sit there by Sullivan great anticipation by Sullivan I've never seen better timing by safety man stiva floors going right across the middle you want to see the safety watching come from behind right his brother bo he's a great football player solve it then he's already had ten interceptions this year that's his level and so the Bruins get the ball back at their own 34 Tommy Sullivan great timing anticipation on the play one of the things that helped Tom on that play though is it major looked at more the whole time and ever took his eyes off her that's Whiteman the fat in shifting over it is Nelson the tailback and Kevin breaks a tackle he gets it after the 39 for about a five-yard pickup he is the younger brother of Darren Nelson at Stanford again a look at the interception Frank and I'm reminded all this interception of Sullivan that he made the pickoff play against Ohio State last year that was a very big play for the Bruins of the 17 nothing with lady that was a sensational play coming in front of the receiver from the free safety is a difficult chore [Applause] [Music] it's announcing again with the ball stumble and goes down we should mention that southern UCLA's offensive lines has been decimated with interest five starters have been in and out there playing today is not to wade into the strength of Southern Cal up the middle but try to use their speed to the advantage and also passing to the outside receivers the football is near the 38 of UCLA they need third down and six a trail three tonight [Applause] and if an offensive set there as Ramzi goes under all over the right side he's got a man on the sidelines of the passage from great for Cormac Kearney no hidden holding head home didn't know he had Kearney over there and by the time he whipped it Cormac was trying to dance with the sidelines and I guess he just didn't get it down in time it appeared that he led Carmack a little bit too far into the boundary hip were rolling in the fourth quarter over temple setting up the big one next week between fit Penn State Clemson now with a rather comfortable lead over South Carolina in the fourth quarter the Tigers trying to finish the year undefeated at 11 when FA is in the putt browner is deep the kick is away it's a spinner Barneo beside the toilet us then he walked it away from him and lets it roll and it takes a UCLA bouncing rolls inside to ten better than mine so the Trojans now after a 52-yard punt by boy turf a got to be backed up in deep in their own territory Nebraska headed for the Orange Bowl big win today apparently but there was one that was a surprise at Ann Arbor Ohio State beat Michigan 14 to 9 that score is wrong as you see it it's the other way around we must mention and make the point once again that a safety man should never let the ball hit the ground that's inconsistent with sound football back them up deep in the hole by letting it roll so at 6:21 to go on the first quarter the Trojan was go to work it goes to Marcus Allen as we figured it would Tigers go up around the 13 there's your correct score out of an arbor today Jeff Simmons might have been the guilty man here he might have clipped Jamie Turner he dead Keefe and one thing the southern cow is being forced to do with this eight-man front there flanker as we listen to the penalty I was holding Paul not a clip watch 29 he still but boxy from behind you can watch him 35 Turner is up and you can wet he grabs him with his left hand he's blocking from the rear so he could called either one he have you druthers on that goal first down I was trying to make the point that the eight-man front forces the flanker to block the man up on the line of scrimmage not release down the field as he would normally do against a seven man fly there's the officiating crew for today's ballgame and they're good ones around along all of them its first down and 14 I am zone [Applause] get him there nine women's Carl Morgan number forty Martin Moss number 55 and there's an upset today as the Louisville Cardinals jump on Southern Mississippi giving the Golden Eagles their first loss and in the third quarter SMU ineligible for the Cotton Bowl leading Arkansas 12 to 7 it was a little swing pass that Arkansas supporter back Tom Jones tried from the 11 picked off the ponies and they stepped in for the go-ahead score second down and about eleven was only eight Vasia gives the ball to Alain Delon fumbles the football UCLA has got it the Trojans turn it over Mike burden comes up for the long teeth had appeared that Marcus Allen the cause of penetration the backfield tried to make his cut and is faulty ball hammy you can see that Mesa doesn't get the ball out to him but Marcus was breaking away from him trying to go to the open area and that's what caused the fumble twenty-nine dirt recover and the football belongs to UCLA at the Southern California eleven [Applause] we are getting turnovers that's three of them in the ballgame and Southern California's three nothing lead now in some jeopardy as Remzi sets the brewer stands up looks at the corner put it for let's see Townsel 26 and defending Joe Turner the ball was just a niche - hi [Music] compass patterns to defend against on the goal line we call it the fade pad work pattern where the receiver just goes out and fades to the endzone line and the pastor lays it up pounds L comes out of the ballgame now and will occur in goes in for UCLA second down from the Trojan 11:00 Ramsey gives to Nelson Nelson on a sweet cuts it back inside he's got a touchdown UCLA [Applause] eleven yard run by Kevin Nelson behind the block of Bruno and the Bruins have the lead the extra point try Johnson it is good at 5:05 the play of the first quarter UCLA cashes in Southern California fumble from the 11 watch the block of Bruno the full-back that gets Nelson goes down the 42 you can see the southern cow made the mistake of over running the plate as you can see as he cuts back look at the rich church outside of the foot sweet Nelson makes it since April 1 and we'll be right back after this [Applause] 5:05 to play in the first quarter the numbers on UCLA's first touchdown go ahead by a score of 7 to 3 Trojans the ball the kick as it went over the line of scrimmage the Goodyear blimp Columbia Los Angeles captain for Kate Ballinger overhead they kick it down into the corner deep into the end zone and pressure runs it down and there will be no return it will be potent fall at the 20 right now a moment with Jim Lampley final score at University Park Pennsylvania Penn State winning 24 21 on a late Blackledge touchdown run after an interception he'll had put Notre Dame ahead with a touchdown pass and then threw the interception this makes Penn State eighth and 2 going into their game with Pitt Notre Dame 5 and 5 and they'll close against Miami next Friday night now to keep Jackson all right Tim we'll have that ball game for you next week Notre Dame I shall have to win it to avoid a losing season major comes up and said to me back position they go up the middle for Marcus Acosta 30 out to the 32 again the full-back for Southern California is the blocking back on the play of McClanahan here's some other scores of games being playing or completed as of this hour Iowa 19 to 7 over Michigan State if a hawkeye's win the ballgame they will go to the Rose Bowl the Iowa's first trip the Pasadena since forever Cespedes Indiana leading Purdue 20 to 17 the coach said this week the beat is retiring at the end of the season first down the USC from their own 32 UCLA lead 7 to 3 maser gives to Allen penalty flag thrown by the referee when the referee throws his laundry down it's normally against the offense and most of the time it'll involve procedure or motion [Applause] southern cow doesn't need to make these offensive mistakes they had 11 penalties in the game last week against Washington lost 13 to 3 they were hoping they could play a penalty free motion offense still first down Trojans have been flagged three times for 25 yards other scores North Carolina beating Duke 31 to 3 but the Blue Devils have a winning season this year Miami which goes against the Irish winning over North Carolina State Howard Schnellenberger is ballclub still going very well it is now first down and 15 for Southern California swings it after Alan is 26 past reception of the season he gets it to about 229 before Mike Dirnt knee comes across to make the tackle on him UCLA as we look at Oklahoma State score against our state with the winner probably going through one of the bolts you see UCLA's defensive secondary Keith I think our outstanding their fit package that's one thing they need the bay but they also can defend against the past second down and 13 from the 29 for the project white comes to the right side along with Malcolm [Applause] they go the other way the front Marcus Allen comes up near the 34 so you'll be looking at third and long as once again Carl Morgan fights his way through the traffic the nose guard for the Bruins to make the tackle one thing that happened for Southern Cal in the last blade Todd Spencer the ball back went to the right he was supposed to lead as as a blocker but Marcus Allen didn't have much of a chance without the full-back leading on the linebacker I remaining in the first quarter reflected there in the Coliseum scoreboard third down and eight on the 34 [Applause] that's this time and measure straight back remote he's in some trouble he gets it off the pass is incomplete it was an ill-conceived pass on his part and we've got a penalty flag as Doug West may have been the man flagged on the play as he lured that maser at the ball at left I mean he popped him [Applause] the phenol aid defined for the UCLA and the Bruins shoulders sagged for a moment so it's going against UCLA that was so unnecessary the West could see that Mesa was getting rid of all just let him Freud [Music] number 53 for the UCLA first down Joe Gary comes tumbling off the field Doug West number 41 you can see he's rushing as Mason had scrambled out looked like he'd broken containment number 41 Doug West the ball is thrown the helmet goes in rough in the past he dropped his head and probably didn't see taking his eyes or he just leveling on the man in California the ball is on the 48 with SC and of all goes to Marcus Allen he goes up the middle and he goes up the middle big down to the UCLA 38 and so here Southern California now after wobbling around and making mistakes the Bruins come right back and they make a mistake and suddenly SC got it moving last play Marcus Allen but they've to cut inside he bets up he does so well he's both legs turning breaks some tackles and just burst right into the secondary it's amazing to me that he doesn't wear down 36 cares a game is what he's averaged in the first ten contests Mike dirty defensive back came out of a lineup [Applause] he's got some speech he's got the ball but as big and strong as Allen but he had very very quick kid he's inside the 35 down to the 33 and that means they'll need the better part of five yards for the first down [Applause] Allen is back as Gibson leaves pretty good first down surge six yards an offensive line of Southern Cal just doing outstanding work [Applause] he knew where the marker was he put his head and shoulder in there and he goes for the first down so Southern California continues to march the ball downfield and it was the roughing the passer call against the Bruins that really gave the Trojans some momentum in this possession UCLA leading by a score of 7 to 3 and very quickly if UCLA wins today and Washington beat Washington State at Seattle the Bruins will go to the Rose Bowl it will have a rematch of an earlier season game this season game that's right Iowa which beat UCLA back there [Applause] it goes to the tailback our who cuts it back into the stack goes inside the 20 down to the 19 summit emery again on the on the play for UCLA excuse me right this is a penalty eggwin so the Trojans continue to threaten to self-destruct [Applause] there's Marcus Allen really--it he is the ultimate in college football I think mentally and physically he has all the skills that you're looking for he's a fierce competitor an amazing thing is how durable he is averaging 30 average down averaging 36 tries a game everybody keying on in first priority to stop him no one has so far this year a better go to the 16 for the first time the ball is back just outside the 30 to make it a first down and 17 esra looks swings it out to Ellen that's 27 catches and he's inside the 25 of the 24 and again you have penalty flags across the way [Applause] bruce matthews out of there right now we're shaken up on the preceding play putting Joe Murray into the lineup look like that Tony Slayton it clipped on the play the sinner goes out on the screen and makes the key block so the Trojan mistakes UCLA man shaken up as well they are slacking each other around down there you make no question about it there's a lot of these people have played each other from Little League days on up to

procedure in this possession that is what the fourth penalty four times they've been flagged in this one possession let's look at the stats for the first quarter the surprising thing is the amount of yardage rushing 100 yards at that rate they would be rushing for 400 yards against the fine you sell a defense but UCLA offense and defense really is having problems Keith only one first down I'd say

losing today going against the winner of the Florida Florida State game next week it is third down and eight was just inside the 45 going strong left and Ramsey sets up that way he gets away from one USC's defense is relentless in its pursuit it is a cheaper that gets the blood quarterback down it was us we that made him change direction you want to mention that we will continue to update the bold developments and bring them to you as we learn them Ramsey Keith has not had them good some pass protection that really picked his receivers and get his passing game going where NFA is in the putt now on fourth down and 11 who browner is the deep man for Southern California forty-three get out of there it's good kick got endzone depth then that's where it bounces 1029 the play of the first half after a 47-yard 5 Southern California will get the ball back at their own 20 and UCLA leading 7 to 6 Howard Cosell sportsbeat tomorrow we'll have a feature on the NBA going for broke and that means flat wallet and the Carl eller story quite a remarkable story about the quite remarkable friend of mine oh we win this fight you'll enjoy sega with howard tomorrow here on ABC all right the Trojans go to work down with Marcus Allen the tailback [Applause] and he's got the boat and he's got about seven yards out to the 27 before Don Rogers brings it down Alan now with 90 yards in the first half and 1015 the play one thing that we should always notice about Marcos olivera's got the bulky he runs with power and authority for the first four yards and then he starts looking for as we look at some of his record so far today and earlier then he starts worrying about the long run but he goes for that go yards first and he can explode [Applause] [Music] gets it this time he is short of the first down Todd Spencer carrying and number 55 Martin loss wrestles him down at about the 28 heard about the Heisman obviously Allen is a Heisman candidate obviously Herschel Walker of Georgia is a Heisman candidate obviously archly ster Ohio State who had a big big day today and leading the win over Michigan there's a fella out the mountain country at BYU with absolutely torn up the record book is something like 47 NCAA records or the BYU Cougars [Music] to the mailbox this week and that goes inside it is looked like the ball might have come loose Allen was airborne and they say the coaches will pay Heath I think that was a good call because Alan was over the top once his forward progress is stopped then he starts going back by pushing about the UCLA llama the ball popped out forward progress kills the ball it's a burst down for Southern California the ball is just over the 30 [Applause] major a lot of time that's his pass off throwing for white for the Trojan any white not quite lengthy enough to get that but Clemens is back in the lineup for UCLA at an outside line backing position and he was the man dropping back to cover on that play it's customary for Southern Cal in their signal : to call a run in the huddle and in checked her past as we look at the first bounce kind of surprising down to two in this ballgame John Robson : he's going to call a pass on first down then change to the run if he wants to if I've got six men as support comes from the outside grape said bacon a first down for Southern California around the 45 it's a quick hitting play everybody is preoccupied with the delayed runs Marcus Allenwood Spencer incidentally as we said was a former tailback has quickness and speed he pops right into the secondary for the big first down you got a Todd Spencer playing the USC back at Ohio State they've got a Tim Spencer playing tailback for them [Music] reverse it given a white former quarterback sets up to throw goes deep with it it is put by a seven seven well what a perfect execution only reversed-phase Feeny why his keep meant to the bowl of water back he can still play quarterback watching the ball perfectly a perfect pass to be completed you can see right there Simmons has got his big big play perfectly executed 48 yards on the play and a first and goal to go Southern California on the UCLA seven [Applause] timmi white came out here along with Scott Tinsley there were three of them that came out here all quarterbacks white made the transition to wide receiver cuts down spits of them a 23 watch the fall back weighs only 200 pounds but he's really improved is blocking you can see Locksley quarterback out Palin cuts right inside for the touchdown that's just classic example of the sweet let's watch Spence the number 23 his job is to block out the force corner you can see that he's got this beautiful jewel the blocking right outside the 32 Sullivan and Marcus out and cut inside touchdown timeout is called by Southern California back in the days we trotted around with a ball they used to call him a blocking back he's got to do the fake me he's got to deceive the defense watch it there this is the play before you kind of just drift down the field until he gets the defense making this a run then you can see Turner number 13 on the plate White has more I mean Simmons has more speed found in lane number two brings him to the ground now let's listen touchdown the blocked in watch the block T on the left develop from behind the office look at the hole look at that offensive line and then you see Spencer knocked the detained man out opening the gap for Allen to score oh boy what a beautiful drive that was a gadget place setting up most of the yardage twenty-two touch Marcus Allen sighs OJ Simpson's 1968 regular-season mark of fortitude I know what John Robertson was project Ellie one for John Mesa yes he not only was he going to too but he was also tears a boil that's the way to manage that football team you're doing a great job we're not throwing very much but we're winning the football game there that's the object of the game two field goals [Music] they're gonna go for two and try to make fourteen to seven ball game put it up No Simmons was over there there's no chance for Jeff to get to the ball as the pressure was on Alan was also in the neighborhood so the score now is USC 12 UCLA 7 Willie Curran has gone deep with the Jojo towns L to receive the kickoff from Southern California as the coaches go out the lead 12 to 7 Cormac Kearney delays bender returning kickoffs for UCLA is out of the ballgame where they separated the left shoulder he's gone today apparently and that is a big loss 23 right now let's go to burn Lundqvist in Seattle bring us up to date on the Huskies and the Cougars Thank You Keith we've got a minute 24 remaining in the first quarter no score in this game and there have been no scoring threats thus far Washington currently has a 4th down and 9 they are about to kick it away to the Cougars and we'll keep you updated the 24 for the Bruins 1st down Trojans leading now 12 to 7 the game that has been marked as much as anything by mistakes [Music] who has cashed in eternal Ramsay dr. flora getting question gets it all the fascist nice catch up on the 34 be close to a first down or UCLA as Ricky Coughlin went up in the air to bring it down one thing that the coaches is a penalty flag back Keith and UCLA is moving back he was right on target here it was and you can see that rams is very good at scrambling that's thing that the Sun Cal coaches mentioned and he moves around and gets the ball often get hurt you penalty is against UCLA Oscar they give up a 10-yard pick up maxima Hey look are you saying it's still first down the illegal use of hands now is not a five-yard penalty it is but it must have been in the backfield I think that's what he's yelling about must been one of the backs it was blocking very close to the quarterback teeth so it's from the spot backed up in the seventh seven yard line Naina's after the 15 as Nelson carries and Curly brings him down and a look at Marcus Allen on the Southern California back can we say about this young man Boulton 100 yards already and failback has he rushed for less than 100 yards that was this game a year ago cEPAL ethos of poly to us Safari is in the ballgame [Applause] [Music] [Applause] I froze it down the sidelines and incomplete into the crowd on the UCLA sideline 6:15 to play in the first half next Friday Notre Dame in Miami out of the Orange Bowl at

course in Birmingham we'll be having a look at Paul Bryant as he attempts to step into football history at the collegiate level all alone it's third down for the Bruins Remzi gets it in the air hi downfield no chance all the intended receiver will occur it and so now USC will get the ball back and they should get good field position with it Keith we've been talking about the Southern Cal often should give credit to the Southern Cal defense for the way they have performed they have completely bottled up the running game of UCLA and Ramsey has had very little success throwing the ball you saw the cows getting the ball right back to the office very quickly one out of seven for Rams even 22 yards he's missed his last six passes in a row when if I sputters out of there Jory brother comes up humble he touched up the boys pick it up [Music] he cannot run with a football in college not gonna fumble it hits the ground there is sharp big tackle a 250 pound her kitty town to fail and caught that on the fly where they caught it after the bounce if he caught it on the fly and then he could run touches the grass not only kickball a kickball Tejada advanced by the kicking team that's a crazy rule but it's in the rulebook and has been even if the ball if he caught the ball you may be ripe you caught the ball in the ground if he caught the ball and it bumbled it after he caught the ball you could run it but if the ball is caught in the air by the ticking theme it's all right whatever with an opportunity the Southern California 48 last time the Trojans turned it over there cashed it in for the distance away this kind of [Applause] scrimmage by August curly a junior out of Atlanta Georgia he brings down the Bruin runner back near the 47 Anthony Davis ad one of the great tailbacks here in Southern California on the sidelines understand Mike Garrett's down there as well [Music] suck it down close to 60 [Music] Bam's is pass over the middle the pass is complete and it's UCLA first down as Ricky Kaufman makes another catch we want to tell you that was an impressive throw by Ramsey and watch Kaufman break inside 34 Turner's trying to delay MIT's plan of scrimmage now Coughlin is inside the ball is going to be right at the numbers perfectly thrown in between the receivers and we've got just short of the first down ll bring the change in to check it with five minutes in five seconds to play in the first half changer on the field looks like it is the first thing does done yes [Music] [Applause] it is five seconds right here to allow our local stations to identify themselves this is WXYZ TV channel 7 Detroit and we're back at the Coliseum in Los Angeles Mike Garrett he was the first to the tailbacks to win the Heisman here at USC first downs now Trojans have ten Bruins have three [Applause] was just short on 37 in goes to Kevin dose of the Tillman tries to cut around the corner gets to the line of scrimmage and that's it good penetration again by the USC defensive unit led by Hall that's curly an outside linebacker UCLA on the sweep as Keith mentioned could never cut off the defense of Southern Cal they just firm had the outside pursuit there was nothing there for Nelson again a reminder one of the prime targets for Tom Ramsey in the passing game for Mac Carney has a slightly separated left shoulder and is not all in a second down and ten [Applause] when she runs away thunder and Lindsey has a first down for the UCLA Bruins at the Southern California 23 Maura down grill and impressive by Ramsey the Blitz is coming watch the line backfist you can see in this do little crisscross one is wide open nobody touched him ramsey scrambles out to the right the UCLA coaches says they did say that he's very good at this eight turns Gopinath in a bad play into a first down at the 14 yard [Applause] 3:45 to go in the first half words threatening now USC leaving 12% inside of those two torsa Polly jr. from Oxnard trying to twist loose in the middle maybe yard he was in the grass with georgia chica who made all conference last year real quick nice and speed was unblocked got nothing on the Carry a look at the numbers on the two quarterbacks of the ballgame so far you can see the comparison that these are having great success Ramsay needs to get a hot hand as UCLA's chances second down and 10 trojan 24 [Music] and just past to the quarter [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] come very much benevolent [Music] Ricki Kaufman on a fine pass from time when I'm gonna say Keith Brown is to sake the man that fumbled the ball and then he meant to receive it get behind in for the touchdown we'll reach be right back at their beautiful pass the UCLA Bruins will go 4-2 they want to make it 16 15 to 12 [Applause] [Music] as if I have to throw it getting pressure gets it off it is again Huffman scores the touchdown catches the two-part pass play and it's 15 the UCLA here's a two-point conversion ause l got the Flitz own again that's exactly what they should do ramps is forced out of the pocket and then the coffee comes right across he's been covered by Neil Hope of freshman linebacker and that was allowing open for the DuPont diversion [Music] there's a touchdown what's the fate moving over to the left and just turn Ramsay turns and lays the ball Coughlin outruns Brown the number 47 in the corner perfectly rolled pave ball the touchdown now let's watch the work footwork and how Ramsey turned without even moving his feet he just riffles the ball out and again it's open the Ricki Kaufman number 36 and now let's watch Coughlin number 36 run the pattern see how he gets open from brown to brown is watch them all the way and it's just the speed it looks like Coughlin has the first the ball is right on carts and it's a touchdown and that fairly well documents UCLA's that's - very good three minutes to play in the first half what a ballgame typical UCLA southern gal 15 to 12 Bruins lead Johnson will kick it off but you're in Spencer all the beat people loss others yeah that's about hanger and it is putchar the fresher banana Pasadena is for shorter 220 near marker at about the 18 or 19 and at 255 to go you see the number Boston catching the touchdown pass from Ramsey and the two-point conversion drive being set up by the safety man Brown a fumble in the punt trying to catch it touched it UCLA would covet it went in and scored we have turned it over to no one three times setting up both of the scores for UCLA 111 yards and 147 yards well just short of an INT as we tried to cut it back against the brain that familiar move that we've seen so many tailbacks make couldn't get his footing the Gator Bowl now is all set with North Carolina meeting Arkansas on December 28 and you can see that eight and three that means at SMU beat Arkansas today and you'll see that on ABC on a Monday night yes India beat Arkansas on 32 to 18 second down and about eight is Mason which swings it out to Allen get some help you see four turnovers for Southern gentleman on the ball a linebacker for the Bruin [Applause] mistake he tried to run with a forward and dodge a defensive man before he had tucked it in it's just a little air pass it should be relative this safe Marcus is going to catch it this see if he doesn't try to run with it before he tucks it away he's got it out on his arm he just drops the ball he seemed like to me he just dropped the ball and UCLA would cover and its first down for the Bruins on the Southern California 22 with two minutes 11 seconds to go in the first half Remzi sets a bit quarterback Nelson and so far behind him he's gonna put it up he throws it short and the pass is parked by Tim - Keith I can see why this UCLA coaches will say that it's a joy and a delight as we look at Marcus Allen it's a join the light that coach Tom Ramsey quarterback he doesn't have the natural ability but he makes up for it because he's a take-charge competitor gain of about three yards on that reception by Reitman Frank Cephas now is again replacing Bruno for UCLA double-wide top of the picture that give the ball to see Cephas is not totally healthy he's pretty well banged up himself but he runs the ball on that carry down to the 15 where chip banks brings him down time remaining there in the first half got to call their play so that they can adjust it in case Southern Cal decides to blitz obviously becoming a big factor here both teams have two timeouts remaining is coming up on a minute now to go in the first half third down and the first thing those of motion and Ramsey sets to throw gets it off in the corner cuff it is over there this time chronic coverage this is a great angle to watch you can see exactly the battle going on Browne is told to hug the inside shoulder man-to-man coverage he gets as close to the inside shoulder receive as he can he turns his head jump and deflects the pass with his left great camera work and was almost the crab fifty-two seconds to go fourth down 32 yard field goal attempt by norm Johnson Normanton he's got it or goes to 18 to 12 UCLA and Johnson now is 13 of 17 on the season [Music] [Applause] you have six penalties against Southern California four turnovers three of the turnovers resulting in scores for UCLA Bruins lead 18 to 12 and that's it all the way into B we're back into the info and cut will put it down so you'll have four to nine seconds to play in the first half in Southern California at the own 20 the Washington Huskies come up with a field goal to take a three nothing lead over Washington State in the second quarter of play in Seattle the interesting on this ball game to see if Southern Cal will try to score from the own 20-yard line with 49 seconds left on the clock Oh will they play it safe and go in six points behind go they're going fourth they're gonna throw the ball spread them up as Rebecca as time goes short goes to Ellen coming out of the backfield and Marcus is across the 30 to the 31 that stops the clock as they move the change and the proteins in a hurry up offense from hustling up that took only seven seconds I've seen the Trojans go to the lake for the field in a minute two or three times when the football game they're very capable over the middle it goes Simmons can hang on as he really took a wallop from Rogers John Rogers nothing loosing the ball that is some play by Rajas that's all he could do he has to protect deep with the clock just running down you can see Simmons Rajas number six is going to come up to the safe man Vicki the poet that he has to cover deep first but he just puts the shoulder pads into the back to the ball pops out at the 31 [Music] [Applause] [Music] Allen with a ball trying to get outside it gets one block and they turn him upside down at about 37 picked up about six yards on that carry 24 seconds to play in the first half and timeout fault here Allen now has 18 carries in the ballgame for 105 yards and that ties the NCAA record with 11 100 plus games in a single season we'll have that for you at halftime highlights of Ohio State Michigan or the Buckeyes getting the win where Michigan State the Rose Bowl apparently out of the big 10 Vinson in South Carolina with Princeton going to the Orange Bowl to play Nebraska and we'll check in with burn Lundqvist in Seattle to find out more about what's going on between the Huskies and the Cougars if Washington State wins in Seattle today then they go to the Rose Bowl regardless of what happens here however if Washington beats Washington State in Seattle UCLA can beat Southern California here then the Bruins will go to the Rose Bowl if USC comes back to defeat UCLA in the second half and their Washington beats Washington State then the Huskies will make the second successive trip to Pasadena college football with teams right in the season will chance to win there it's and frankly every conference but the Atlantic coast and it's been the year when being number one was the worst thing that could happen to you big upset there there's a school in the Arkansas game we gave you SMU wins a Southwest Conference championship but they can't go prohibition in his third down ball goes to Marcus Allen Allen blows it up the middle and the talk is running now with about 17 seconds to play it's about 19 seconds they get it stopped throw that a little quick pass maybe Ben stop the clock and take time and see what they can do for the 19 seconds left to go stopping as the first time it was made in the change moved to the Trojan 48 lazy knows that the fallback while he fumbles the ball as a matter of fact and the UCLA Bruins come up with the ball 7:6 we've been on the in Finnish bigger his hair [Applause] maradona you and his coaches on the satellite police mistakes keep Southern Cal very uncharacteristic of John Robinson coached football team although they they did make a lot of errors up in the Washington last week something you don't explain you can't explain as a coach you just seem like you don't have the concentration that it takes look at Iowa Iowa's laying it on Michigan State so 36 7 in the fourth quarter I would say that's got to be rather conclusive with you yes the people in our have been such loyal fans we talked about that last week twenty years since it had a winning season and the first winning seats they've had I believe Keitha going to roast it well Wisconsin comes up with a winning season and the deadline for a bull bit as well Kentucky upset Tennessee today off the top set a number they beat him 21 and Howard Schnellenberger has had quite a season for himself down in Miami as well all right its first down UCLA the ball was at midfield on the seven seconds to play in the first half leading by six Rams just gotta throw it getting some pressure but he gets and he gets his pass off and it is incomplete and time is gone he's trying to find the safety valve but Kevin Nelson coming out of the backfield and so the Bruins lead and right now Steve Davis with coach Terry Donahue coach you've got to be glad of what's going on football game USD quits didn't quit making mistakes well I'll tell you what our team's kind of played a little bit like that all year long we've forced some of these mistakes and SC's a great football team and they're very physical and they're a little more physical than we are right now but we're hanging in there and sometimes when you're losing to really winning you know so it works like that coach y'all offensively you've not been able to stay in a drive of any real import try now does that bother you going in the second half it's killing me right but we haven't had many dries all season quite frankly we have a battered up offensive line but we have fought hard and our players are competing and that's all I can ask them they're doing the best they can the core Matt Carney will he be back no he's separated shoulder early in the game and he's a great receiver and unfortunately he's out for the game okay thank you for stopping in say football UCLA USC will continue it for this commercial message and a word about an upcoming show on ABC in coach you've got to be a little frustrated you've made the mistakes and just benefit anything going well we're I think we're physically dominating the game we're just beating ourselves while we went and halftime said hey we're not joining this where we should we should be more relaxed and display the game we are playing fine physically and I think we're making some big plays but we're making some just atrocious plays that are beating has to shake your confidence Aloha nog like heck it does we're coming back on sites that keep haha it's it I'd say if there's there I've ever seen a Salesman as a coach he's one here are the halftime numbers you can see that Southern Cal has dominated as John Robinson just said controlled their offense making a 100 scene 7 yards total offense but look down below 5 turnovers the one for UCLA and that has been the difference in Esquire UCLA as a head and we'll go to the floor of the Coliseum now for the kickoff to start the second half of play with a Bruins out in front 18 to 12 [Music] Roger and Spencer are the 2d people for Southern Cal but recorded I and Spencer 23 or Johnson will kick it off I'm Keith Jackson along with Frank Royals and Steve Davis we hope you're enjoying it it's warm and sunny in California I know it's cold and bitter in some sections the middle of the country and onboard the Northeast here's the kickoff sailing deep into the end zone there and Southern California with after football first down at its own 20 a score we had out of Seattle with seven three Washington State leading Washington here are your offensive backs and receivers major Spencer Allen comin off the flanker he's the man that goes in motion a lot the V the back as they call him big guys up front Mo's bar Matthew slight

it was newborn who recovered Marcus Allen's fumble in the first half [Applause] Spencer picked up on the carry six yards to make it second down and four Southern California [Applause] [Music] [Applause] give the ball to Marcus out and gets the first down as he bangs it out to the 33 Allen 9 with 122 yards in the ballgame he has gone over a hundred yards in all 11 games of this season then a whole bunch of him 200 well that was a good search by Roy Boston the all-american right guard number 64 that last play allowing Allen to make the first - call it call it - 32 I guess it's probably closer to that pass mark and the pitch goes to Allen the right Clark a setup over 35 picked up about three or so Marcus Allen needed 177 yards going into this game to assure him of breaking at

foul or unsportsmanlike one of the other personal foul against Southern California let's watch it again Joey Prandtl number 47 after the play is over food that is illegal unnecessary uncalled for and a penalty is in order referee was right on top of its first down he was taking on Willy current a little bit of a Mitch match because browner six-foot-three 205 Willy is five nine 175 Brown has had a tough day fumble one punt let the receiver coffee getting behind for a touchdown [Applause] first down Bruins the ball is at the Southern California 35 Trojans have not poised today it's Nelson sweeping to the right pretty good block gets Kevin around the core he goes through 35 for four down to the 31 and it was Bruno football not right now they don't get their defense in order second down and six at the 31 of USC Bruins moving the ball and it off inside to the full-back Bruno a yard UCLA sitting on a six-point lead this is the most impressive drive that UCLA has had the other scores came after turnovers from Southern Cal helped even feel the system this one so far has been on their own Bruins beat him last year to remember 22 17 and they set on Marcus Allen a year ago the only gain 72 yards against him he's well over a hundred today UCLA is leading manner NZ using the pass as a prime weapon O'Town jelly gets away and these about the 15 and he almost went for six run away from Turner and West came across just save it one thing that happens with you giggle could receive enough room that gets the ball and gets started boy stuff to game down the coast normally he gets loose and tournament he's got good news and turning them a 34 makes the mistake of giving too much sufficient this close to the goal line Townsend has good speed that's obvious that the defensive back wants to give him a little cushion but not this much he doesn't have to defend deep causa makes a good move in extra yardage first down UCLA Trojan 15 Kevin Nelson trying to get to the outside he yes footspeed enabling him to outrun pursuing Trojan linemen for three yards time Rams has got to be enjoying things the way they're going right now too because in two previous moments against Southern California he has just said we're not played well well last year it was Jay Schrader who came on to win the ballgame getting off to a baseball career and now Ramsey is guiding the Brewer Georgia quarterback by the success of the team not by his own individual statistics although those are coming up 7 for 50 out of 50 center burn and seven [Applause] [Music] [Applause] look right incomplete Nelson had come out of the backfield had gone to the corner he was well covered I think the man he really wanted to go to was town Zell covered like a blanket one thing you right keep one thing that rented us so well we've mentioned Alicia's make the point again to cause us look at Terry Donahue his overall record just over 70% he was chosen for the job by the late JD Morgan was a very young man Thank You Carrie which is 32 at the position Ramsey scramblin issue I get third down and seven the 13th play in this possession by the UCLA Bruins a hand the ball off inside to Terry Moorhead who had come in at the tailback position he gets it back into the center of the field in front of the uprights on fourth down and I would suggest to you will see norm Johnson long Johnson is the leading force in each field goal kicker in UCLA history all I wanted to do on that little cut back inside I think was to get it back in front a field goal I think the reason for that the field goal gives UCLA a nine-point lead where a touchdown in a conversion of the two points would not bring you sell Southern Cal up to this goal it's a 27 yard attempt and it is good and with 7 minutes and 19 seconds to play in the third quarter the UCLA Bruins have built their lead to 21 well there's your score 2112 as the UCLA Bruins give us an impressive march in this third quarter 14 plays assume 5 minutes and 15 seconds of the quarter and norm Johnson kickin the field goal and he just hammers the kickoff way back to the endzone and Freddie Crutcher will leave it there and it'll be usc's ball first down at the 20 again to restate the bold situations for the Rose Bowl does concern if UCLA wins here and Washington wins in Seattle over Washington State then the Bruins are going to go to Pasadena they're gonna play Iowa Iowa beating Michigan State today while Ohio State beat Michigan and the Hawkeye's are coming back to Pasadena Iowa I think Iowa and Washington State probably have to be called the two surprise teams of the 1981 season but Jeff Walden magnificent job for your old alma mater 10-7 up there right now the Washington leading Marcus Allen has the football the Trojans are down by nine the UCLA defense has been dancing around it's a defense is structured by a young man who has his doctorate named Jed Humes and he is a clever fellow Keith I talked to him last night about 10 o'clock and he was ready to play then he told me his the best had played all year the defensive unit the turnovers had been part of their strategy and they expect you to get some today and again there you see the another record that could come to Marcus Allen before this day has gone [Applause] macer back to throw it has a man he had Malcolm more wide open he waited too long more was wide open but grant Mazur was an IT able to get the ball to him in time Sullivan came up to spoil the play he's I think you mentioned a point earlier that Mesa is tipping off and letting UCLA read his mail by looking at the receiver all the way and Sullivan got a good jump on the ball and came close to intercepted if he had delivered the ball when Moore had made his turn goodness knows how long he could have run but he got third down and about seven maser as it - criminy redcorn well had dropped off to the outside out of here he was wide open but when the fast was thrown it was deflected by the earth Iike me I've never seen a defensive lineman had a better day than last year at Columbus Ohio he dominated the game and he arts listo our time [Applause] [Music] six foot six fire now we'll have to punt it to the Trojans and Sullivan us back to the brewery UCLA needed they dropped some off and there is no pressure [Music] Sullivan has to follow fair catch a football first down at their own 32 after a 40 UCLA Bruins we'll get the football you see the shoulder leader the Goodyear blimp Columbia with Captain porky Ballinger Pacino and cameraman Archie Griffin's up there with him along with the video technician Hugo de Bernardo here comes UCLA sit on a nine-point lead as Ramsey turns and gives the ball to Kevin notes to the tailback he's about a yard going back into the closing moments of the first half in Southern California Trojans last five possessions have resulted in a fumble fumble which produced a touchdown fumble which produced the field and here in the second half pump edify DCL a defensive made up in mind to go to force laser to throw the football and John Robinson has not reacted in that way second down and nine [Applause] Ramji getting outside gets his pass all the fastest complete and it goes to will occur in number 18 just short of the 40 that's short of a first down as well and next final in the Hurricanes of Miami out of the at 3:00 Eastern then on Saturday a doubleheader hit on the defeated against also Penn State at Pittsburgh in Birmingham Alabama and over all begins at Southeastern time on Saturday [Applause] third down and three [Music] [Applause] they go to the tailback Kevin notion that later too [Music] yeah called very good place election all right we can tell you now about three other bowls the beach bowl will have West Virginia and the Florida Florida State winner on December 31 the Independence Bowl will have Texas A&M and Oklahoma State that's down in Louisiana and the Sun Bowl will have Oklahoma and Houston on December 26 in El Paso first down for the Bruins as whimsy gets it off just before he is pavan it is intercepted back hip pain linebacker for Southern California so the Trojans come up with a football first down at the UCLA 48 [Applause] because his chip banks later critical plate this is another one of the sensational plays thanks number 51 is going to be dropping back in the zone rams is going to try to drill the ball between a little bit over sin watch banks go up well that's an athlete for a 6-foot for 230 pounds catches the ball returns it's short yardage and now Southern Cal is threatened UCLA turnover in the ball game the first time Rams is met intercepted but I would suggest to you Frank having watched this thing now for the better part of three quarters the USC better stick in the end zone and get some points good observation [Music] from the 48 laser on first down we'll put it up he goes deep he's throwing for Sinan Simmons is down the sidelines and the pass is incomplete covering him step for step his Mike Dirnt leaders had a fine ball game for the UCLA Bruins you're gonna watch them it's a fly patter the first down is a good time to go deep Jeff Simmons is at best deep receiver you can see that current is coming 29 is right on his inside shoulder you couldn't be in better position for defensive back just an excellent play on a tough tough usually tough play [Applause] number 53 again shaken up joke Gary his second time the Joe has come out of the ballgame but he's working up there in the trenches and boy I tell you when these two teams get together there's a lot of thunder and lightning along the trenches they're big people and they are quickly like Barbie has gone in now to play defensive tackle for UCLA on second down and 10 from the 48 they go to a marker no it's yes it is Marcus Allen that time major fool knees it turned his back I couldn't see where the Allen had it or not Marcus gets it down to about 245 for three years we're inside linebacker brought him down we should make the point once again that UCLA is trying to force Southern Cal the [Music] six defensive backs since it's a passing down third Simmons will come to the left Timmy white will go to the right for us see winsome razored looking at the books boxes emotion into the hands of Marcus Emma so the UCLA defense just lays their ears back and comes storming in you can see that you see UCLA he was gonna blitz and try to put Doug West number 41 it'd be picked up by Moore number 73 David into the ball game the puck now with time beginning to wind down in the third quarter Tom Sullivan back for the Bruins Bruins a leading 20 1 to 12 no pressure that's a good punch by fire looks like it a go to the end zone does so prior knocks it into the enzone 45-yard punt UCLA gets the ball back on the city of Los Angeles downtown the Colosseum UCLA's ball first down and 10 from their own 20 and he is behind the line of scrimmage on the 17 chip banks again the blade hit banks is all of conference really an outstanding football playing what's a linebacker suppose you're gonna see a perfect classic illustration of forcing he saw a gap he comes across the backfield he's not going to be blocked as keeps his feet working and finally rolls Nelson to the ground for a loss just an outstanding award second down at twelve and a half Nelson again goes up the middle this time and finds some daylight gets it up near the 24 is what it looks like down to the trenches Atika number seven to eight is all conference last year one of the very fine football players he's trying to shoot the gap and you can see the linemen ah did the Sun a number 51 and the left guard Charlotte moving right out of there Odie's another fella who came off leg injury to become an outstanding player third down and seven Ramsey Monroe gets it all passes good and Denzel steps out of bounds up at the 35 it is the UCLA first down a pickup of 12 when you watch the work 101 watch how much of cushion turn on them a 34 gives Townsel he's too far inside the first place what's that course turner slips a little bit Townsel separates himself from the defensive back makes it easy to throw completion in first down
