"Ah yes, that year's UCLA game, also known as 'why I never believe any lead is safe'."

Have posted this before, so apologies for the redundancy.  A friend of mine believes that the UCLA game that year was more painful than any other Stanford football game, including "The Play."  Why, you ask? 

Because The Play was just one painful moment where Cal, with the help of the zebras, fluked its way into a W.

But that UCLA game . . . well, everyone in attendance could see that Q4 comeback by UCLA coming a mile away.  The O goes into a shell; the D can't get a stop.  All Stanford needed to win that game was ONE PLAY made on offense (for a first down) or on defense (to stop a TD drive) in the last 10 minutes.  And it didn't happen.  And those last 10-12 minutes were like watching a fatal train wreck that you knew was coming.

Brutal.  Just.  Absolutely.  Brutal.
