Also unbelievable there's no video of it on YouTube.

From UPI on 11/22/1980

"LOS ANGELES -- Freeman McNeil caught a deflected pass and raced 58 yards for a touchdown with 2:07 remaining in the game Saturday to lift 19th-ranked UCLA to a dramatic 20-17 Pacific-10 victory over 12th-ranked Southern California.

With the Bruins trailing 17-14, sophomore Jay Schroeder dropped back on his own 42 and lofted the pass that was tipped by USC's Jeff Fisher and fell into the hands of McNeil, who ran untouched into the end zone for the game-winning TD. Norman Johnson's extra point attempt was wide."

GO BRUINS!!!!
