OJ took off on his eye-popping 64-yd jaunt with over 10 and a half minutes left to play. The bruhorns had lots of time to come back and win, but Beban, who by now was playing like he was out on his feet with pain and exhaustion, never even got ucla within 50 yds of another score.
Jimmy Gunn, playing with a torn ligament, spent the rest of the 4th quarter chasing Beban and the demoralized, slower bruins around like chickens with their heads cut off. ucla football has never recovered, literally.
Third time was the charm for McKay to finally beat Prothro.
