Raw Video: Halftime Show At 1982 Big Game Between Stanford & Cal We spoke to then CBS 5 sports producer Steve Kroner former CBS 5 photographer Al Lopez, Cal football player and 'The Play' game changer Kevin Moen, and Stanford band trombonist Gary Tyrrell. And fewer yet know the true story of how that footage got shot.ĬBS 5 has uncovered a treasure trove of rarely seen, unedited videotape of what went down that day, including the half time show, raw footage of interviews with the football players and what's called 'The Play' in its entirety. But few have seen the footage shot by CBS 5. Most folks have seen the version that aired during the broadcast of the 1982 game.

For those who don't know, the 'Big Game' is the biggest college football event in the Bay Area, celebrating the historic rivalry between two great universities.īut 30 years ago, one of the biggest 'Big Game' moments unfolded at Memorial Stadium, resulting in one of the most remarkable, if not recognizable, plays in college football history. It does however feel oddly fitting that this is the way the 2023 season will end for Notre Dame.BERKELEY (CBS 5) - On Saturday, Stanford and Cal will play the 115th Big Game at UC Berkeley's refurbished Memorial Stadium. You’ve got to imagine that had Notre Dame handled business against Clemson or Louisville this year and were playing for a spot in a New Year’s Six bowl game that one of the other networks would have picked this one up. The network has long been infamously difficult to find for even locals and is just part of the reason the conference is headed to meet its maker at season’s end. It will be the first and only time Notre Dame appears on Pac-12 Network as it will be the final live football game the network airs. It was announced Monday that next Saturday’s game will kickoff at 7 p.m. There is a little bit more history to add to the game now, too. In their final year in the Pac 12 that means their season-finale against Notre Dame will be their final as a member of the conference.

It takes place at Stanford and with the Cardinal just 3-7 on the year, they won’t qualify to play in a bowl game. Notre Dame’s 2023 regular season finale will be one for the history books.
