I, too, was at the Rose Bowl, bleary-eyed, on January 1, 2000. My recollection is that, on Stanford's last play on offense, Husak slipped else he would have found a wide-open receiver for the score that would have brought Stanford within two, two-point conversion pending, of course. (Or maybe I'm thinking of another game at which I was bleary-eyed.)
On the bright side, it was y2k and the world didn't end as some people were predicting.

If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
