Of course there have been More controversial plays the series that began in 1929. The recent plays in question were scoring catches by rile Affholter and Gary Wellman. They were similar Smuch As they occurred in the right Comer of the end Luculas Iney a at the peristyle end of the coliseum. A. Ii. Sent h in 10s7 was More me Affholter a catch in 1987 was More meaningful since provided the trojans with a 17-13 upset Victory and a it rth in the Rose bowl. Midway through the fourth Quarter Rodney Peete Hrew a 33-Yard pass that Affholter juggled in the end me it was ruled that he had Possession Long enough depriving the Bruins of an Opportunity to play in the Ose bowl. A a i just saw the Ball at the last minute and pulled it own a Affholter said pulling the Bruins Down with the circumstances weren tas dramatic last year. Us and already clinched the Rose bowl bid and Urcla 3-was struggling. In the first Quarter Todd Marinovich threw a 13-Yard ass to Wellman who made the catch while barely stay in in Bounds in the end zone. Or was he Turner and other Bruins contend that although Well Lan made a great catch he was out of Bounds. The los Eigeles times ran a photo later that seemed to show Ellman made a Legal catch. The Bruins never bought it. A it was a Good catch but not a touchdown a Turner Aid. A the game ended in a 10-10 tie when a 54-Yard Field Oal try by a clan a Alfredo Velasco hit the crossbar and bounced Back. The coliseum Corners have been cruel to the Bruins.

He caught the Ball in the right Corner of the end zone the closed end of the coliseum to give us a 14-12 Victory with the Rose bowl on the line for both teams. However the trojans  have been in position score the winning touchdown if it Hadnot been for a with Down pass interference penalty called against Anny Graham covering Dickerson that gave us a St Down at the Urcla 32-Yard line. Jones pass was Erth rown but Graham did no to know it at the time. A i thought i had made a Good play but i had slipped and did no to see Jones throw the Ball a Graham said. A i Idns to know if the pass was thrown badly or not. A i hoped to get my hands on Dickerson As he got his lands on the Ball. But when i looked up an official had Irown his  the fact that the Ball was unwatchable As not a consideration for an official at the time. Urcla coach Terry Donahue wants to even the score with us another pass interference penalty against Urcla in 1977 caused coach Terry Donahue such anguish that he smashed his hand against a locker after the game. Us had already been eliminated from the Rose bowl race but the Bruins were due to be invited if they beat the trojans. It seemed they were on the verge of that leading 2726, in the final minutes. The trojans were trying to get into Field goal Range but time was running out. On third and 10 from Midfield us quarterback Rob Hertel threw a pass intended for Kevin Williams. It was incomplete but Urcla defensive Back Johnny Lynn was cited for pass interference giving us a first Down at the Bruin 40-Yard line. Hertel threw a 17-Yard pass to Randy Simmrin to get into Field goal Range. Frank Jordan kicked a 38-Yard Field goal with two seconds remaining to Knock the Bruins out of the Rose bowl and put Washington in.

Us was unbeaten at the time and ranked no. 2 nationally. It seemed that the game might end in a 3-3 tie when Urcla quarterback Bill Kilmer threw a pass that was intercepted by Uscz a Willie Wood at the Tro Jan seven Yard line in the fourth Quarter. But Uscz a Jerry Traynham was called for pass interference giving Urcla the Ball at the seven. Three plays later a clan a Ray Smith scored spoiling an unbeaten season for the trojans and sending the Bruins to the Rose bowl. The trojans claimed that the official who made the Call was upfield and not in position to make such a decision. Perhaps the most significant game of the series was played in 1952. Not Only were the teams playing for a Rose bowl berth As they have so Many times they were both undefeated and untied. That was a first in the series and Hasni to been matched since. Us won 14-12, when Trojan guard Elmer Willhoite intercepted a pass thrown by Paul Cameron and returned it 72 Yards to the Urcla eight Yard line in the second half setting up the winning touchdown. In retrospect an unlikely play was the narrow difference Between the teams. In the second Quarter us Wingback a1 Carmichael was apparently stopped on a reverse. However As he was going Down he threw a lateral to tailback Jim Sears who ran 75 Yards for a touchdown. Older Bruin fans contend to this Day that Carmichael threw a Forward illegal lateral to Sears.
