1988 - Tuan Van Le!

My favorite memory was Le's block of an extra point in 1988, which happened right in front of me, as I was in a section surrounded by C.al fans.  Stanford was 3-6-1 going into the game, but had only one loss of more than 10 points.  Ca.l was 5-5.

It was Cal on the Stanford 3 yard line, 0:04 to go.  Called "the Cadillac of kickers in college football" by Cal coach Bruce Snyder, all Pac-10 and future all-American Robbie Keen lined up for a 21-yard field goal attempt to win the game on the final play.  Le raced from the left end of the defensive line to block the kick and preserve a 19–19 tie, the last tie in the series. This was the only Big Game to end in a tie after 1953 and under current overtime rules may be the last Big Game to end in a tie.
