    Nobody knifes straight through the line like O.J. did.
    The cut-backs, the speed in which he can slice-up defenses is unmatched to this very day.
    I once took a stab at it in highschool, but I quickly realized I wasnt cut out for it. And now here I am, choppin' it up with you fellas. Go Broncos!

      .but it's not SC..look..my father went to both
      ..said his education was more pwrsonal ( physics) the level of how sc folks helped him when he entered the job market opposed to no help at ucla was what really set the two apart

    I am a contemporary of OJ. I remember him at San Francisco City College when he was setting records there. However, it is one of those things, you had to be there. In 1967 USC and UCLA were loaded with talent (remember John Wooden and Lou Alcindor?) in a number of sports. I played tennis at Fresno State and we won the College Division national championship but USC, who was no. 1 at the University Division, had Stan Smith and Bob Lutz, who were ranked in the top 10 in the world! It was a golden era in the Golden State.

She was very young and was interviewed by some detectives because she had slept with OJ! She showed them where she thought this in her diary! I was 10 yrs old and she was 22! OJ had been to our Malibu home very many times and I was comfortable with him! The day he brought in a revolver and gloves in a bag I remember like yesterday! When I showed the Lt. he told me to never speak of them and threw them in a well in our backyard! Last time I saw OJ is the day he was acquitted! He came over and slept with my Mom and th said it was time to go! He didn't want anymore trouble for us!

    Played against OJ in 1965 and 1966, Junior college. I thought his best game was the JC national championship, CCSF vs. Long Beach CC, 1966. Earl McCullouch knocked out OJ on quick toss sweep, met him full speed just as OJ was set to turn up field. Earl was a world class hurdler with exceptional speed. OJ left on a stretcher. CCSF was behind 35- 0 at the half. Second half OJ is not only playing running back, but returning punts and kickoffs. He seemed possessed. Scored 5 TDs. Long Beach never scored again and CCSF won the game. Unreal.

      Actually, 4 x 100 yard relay. One hundred yards was the length that colleges in the US used .. until the decade of the Seventies, I think. 110 yards is very close to 100 meters (109.73 yards) So that's how a college team could set a world record in a sprint event. Its similar to a world record in the Mile.
      Simpson was fast at 9.4, but the reigning Olympic champion, Bob Hayes, did a 9.1. which corresponds exactly to a 1O flat 100 meters

      The 440 relay, of course. My memory is failing. Still, only Americans high schools and colleges did the 440 at the time. So, in a sense, it wasnt a true "world" record, as the American Olympic team would have done the 440 slightly faster. OJ's 9.4 100y plots to 10.3 100m. He might have made the team as an alternate, but would NOT have been in the Final

    I attended Chabot College in Hayward, California, in 1966. My father told me about a talented football player from San Francisco City College named O.J. Simpson, who was going to play against us that year. We went to the night game. SFCC got the ball at kickoff and returned it to about its' own 30 yard line. On the first play from scrimmage, O.J. was handed the football and went into the line where there was a big pile up to stop him. About three seconds later, O.J. emerged from the other end of the pile and ran the ball for a touchdown. That first play made me a believer. Too bad O.J. didn't keep running in the same direction.

    I remember this game well, it has been almost 52 years now and this game was for the PAC 8 Championship, the Rose Bowl, the National Championship, and the Heisman Trophy. It was a great game with the lead going back amd forth until Simpson broke this td run off a few minutes into the fourth quarter. The real key play in the game was the blocked extra point attempt on UCLA's third touchdown which allowed for the one point victory. USC won the Pac 8 and went to the Rose Bowl where they defeated Indiana 14 - 3 to claim the National Championship. Gary Beban who quarterbacked UCLA won the Heisman Trophy over O.J. Simpson. This was one of the best football games I ever saw!

      O.J ruined his legacy, goes without saying, but his combination of speed power, and elusiveness is unmatched. In a bills team that couldn't throw the ball to save their lives he was the offense. The D didn't have to guess where the ball was going, much like Barry but even more so. He was it in an era when running the ball was the thing.

The Rams came in '46, left in '95, and returned in '16. The Raiders came in '82 and left in '95. The Chargers came in '60, left in '61, and returned in '16.

    This game was nationally telecast by ABC and was also significant for one technical milestone: the first time a "portable" color-TV camera had ever been used.
    In the late 1960's, several electronics firms were rushing to get handheld color-TV cameras out to the networks.
    While the deadline was the summer of 1968 (so these cameras could be used on the floor of that year's political conventions), Ampex was first to deploy a handheld portable color video camera, in time for the USC/UCLA game in November of 1967.
    I believe ABC only learned two or three days before the date of the game that they'd be able to use that camera.

    I saw this game, and was sitting low near the peristyle end, so I was looking down the field when this happened. SC was going in that direction in the fourth quarter. Simpson hadn't been gaining a lot of yardage up until this point, as I remember. Prothro was a really good coach against the run. Then this play occurred, seemingly in slow-motion. It's odd watching replays of it at normal speed. It started off looking like it was going to go for two yards, like a lot of his other runs that day. Then he got around the end and cut upfield: looks like a five yard gain. Then he cuts back, and OMG he's in the clear -- are there any defensive backs going to cut him off? No. It's going to be, and is, a touchdown. That was one of the biggest clutch plays in any game, ever.
