    I was AT this game. I started watching USC football games with my dad in the late 60’s. I was a 13 years old 8th grader, the son of a USC grad and a football player myself. I have been a USC football fan for over 50 years, and this game stands out as one of, if not the best game I’ve ever seen. I enrolled at USC 5 years later and my daughter just graduated. Fight On!✌🏻🤨

    50 year SC fan. I was 10 years old when I watched that game. Remember being sad at halftime when they were losing 24-6. Took a bath , came out and it was 24-20.AD ran the opening KO back for a TD and the onslaught was on. I was literally jumping up and down and screaming in my living room the rest of the game. The most amazing thing I have ever seen! Outscored the Irish 35-0 in the third quarter!! The greatest quarter of football ever!! My all time greatest memory of USC. I can still hear how loud the crowd was and how crazy the fans and players were going. Have never seen the Coliseum so on fire..Truly incredible. I'll always remember it..

      I was there with my uncle. Everyone else went camping. ND was totally dominating USC. Remember it was 24 to 0 until a late second quarter td. I told my uncle “if we could just return the 2nd half kickoff for A TD”. I still get chills that was an incredible moment. The coliseum shook to its core. The ensuing kickoff when we stuffed the ND return man thats when I knew we would win. 55 points in 17 minutes, incredible!

    I watched that game as a 15 year old. At the time, I was a huge Notre Dame fan. In those days, although the Irish were really good, they struggled to beat USC on a consistent basis. The late TD by the Trojans in the first half would radically alter the game. It's still one of the memorial games I've ever watched.

    I was a junior at ND that fall, and after coming into halftime up 24-6--especially after the little lift of blocking the extra point I think the best word to describe how we felt in the second half was 'bumfuzzled," before Bobby Bowden even ever came up with the word. Sensational performance by AD.

  • @TheHomelandProjectForum
    @TheHomelandProjectForum 2 года назад +5

    In 1974 I was a senior at USC, and remember the short and warm walk from campus to the coliseum that day. I remember too how upsetting so many of us felt at halftime. Yet something began to happen as the teams returned to the field to begin the second half. It's indescribable, yet something was in the air: an almost electric sense of anticipation. Something was about to happen that was so powerful that it bled across time. I remember turning to a stranger on my right and saying, "Can you feel it?" and he simply said, "Yes." And then Notre Dame kicked off and Mr. Davis did what did. Moving right to left before me standing stunned above the 20 yard line he ran...into history. There will likely never be another football game like this.

    Woody Hayes somehow got to work this game as a guest analyst for ABC, giving him a chance to see USC up close before playing them for the third straight year in the Rose Bowl. I'm sure he was crowing in the first half, but he sounded a bit concerned by the end. (USC won the Rose Bowl on a late touchdown pass from Haden to McKay, and then a two-point conversion to Diggs from Haden).

    I was a sixteen year old kid from Kansas watching this game. SC was my favorite team because they were the first major CFB team I saw with a black Qb (Jimmy Jones) a few years earlier. I absolutely hated ND, especially how they'd run up the score on lesser teams. It was delicious listening to Woody Hayes moaning on air and muttering to himself, and seeing Ara Parsegian (spelled wrong) in agony to the BTA the Trojans put on them! Anthony Davis ran angry, and another Heisman winner Ricky Bell was on KO team waiting his turn at tailback...ahhh the memories😅

    I’ve been watching college football since 1967 and I saw this game at my grandparents house at the time. This was an incredible game if you are a Trojan fan, but terrible if you’re a Notre Dame fan. Believe it or not, there’s been other games like this since then. I can recall at least two where one team built a big lead only to have the other team come back and blown them out.
