So the question really becomes, do we try to organize the largest Bernie rally in the history of Bernie's campaign, maybe even the US Presidency?

I decided it would be fun to email the people who run the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and ask the rate and availability for the 3rd, it's available to rent :)

Since I am an expat in Europe, I'd like some ideas on who to approach to help make this a reality. I'm thinking very much a "if you build it" field of dreams type of event. We do the ground work and convince Bernie to show up.

I gave $250 to the campaign today, but I'm sure willing to drop $500 into a gofundme to help make this happen.

Thoughts, ideas?

Introduction

On October 6th, 2007, the Stanford Cardinal entered its fifth game of the season against the USC Trojans with a 1-3 record. Few people gave the Cardinal any chance against the #1 team in the country (#1 in Coaches Poll, #2 in AP Poll). They were coming off a dismal 1-11 season. In their 3 games against (ranked) Pac-10 teams so far that season they had been outscored 141-51. They had a first-year head coach. And as if the odds weren't already stack against them enough, the Sunday before the game their starting QB, TC Ostrander, suffered a seizure and would be unavailable to play; so sophomore QB Tavita Pritchard would make his first collegiate start...on the road...in the Los Angeles Coliseum...against the #1 USC Trojans.

Vegas pegged Stanford as a 41-point underdog. But every dog has its day. And that day – October 6th, 2007 – belonged to the Stanford Cardinal.

Timeline of Events Preceding the Game

2001 September 29th - Stanford defeats USC 21-16 in the LA Coliseum. This is USC's last home loss before losing to Stanford in 2007. It is also Stanford's last win against USC until 2007.

2004 January 1st - USC defeats Michigan 28-14 in the 2004 Rose Bowl, winning the 2003 AP national title (split national title with LSU).

2005 January 4th - USC defeats Oklahoma 55-19 in the 2005 Orange Bowl, winning the 2004 national title.

2006 January 4th - USC loses 41-38 to Texas in the 2006 Rose Bowl (and national title game), finishes season #2 in the country.

2006 September 16th - Stanford opens new Stanford Stadium with 37-9 loss to Navy. Stanford doesn't win any games in the new stadium in its inaugural season.

2006 December 4th - Stanford fires Head Coach Walt Harris following 1-11 season.

2006 December 19th - Stanford hires Jim Harbaugh to be its head football coach.

2007 April 2nd - Jim Harbaugh publicly questions how long Carroll will remain at USC, saying "It’s been widely publicized that he has interviewed for other jobs, and that is what I’ve heard...I definitely said that. But we bow to no man. We bow to no program here at Stanford University." Carroll refutes Harbaugh's claims, and thus begins the Carroll-Harbaugh rivalry.

2007 September 24th - The father of Stanford WR Mark Bradford dies of a heart attack. Bradford heads home to Los Angeles to be with his family.

2007 September 30th - Stanford starting QB TC Ostrander suffers seizure. Tavita Pritchard becomes starter for game against USC.

2007 October 6th - Stanford defeats USC 24-23 in the LA Coliseum, snapping USC's 35-game home winning streak.

The Key Characters

Looking back on this game, you'll recognize a lot of familiar faces. Here are just a few of the key characters from that game:

USC

• Pete Carroll - USC's Head Football Coach. Entering the 2007 season (his seventh as HC), Carroll had led the Trojans to five Pac-10 titles, two national titles (2003 AP, 2004 AP/Coaches/BCS), and a national title game appearance (2005). Carroll would leave USC after the 2009 season and become the head coach of the Seattle Seahawks, eventually leading them to two Super Bowl appearances and a Super Bowl title. Carroll is now in his 8th season as head coach of the Seattle Seahawks.

• Steve Sarkisian - USC's Offensive Coordinator and Quarterbacks Coach. This was Sarkisian's sixth season with USC (and Pete Carroll). Sarkisian would later become the head coach of the Washington Huskies in 2009 and then return to USC as head coach in 2014. He was fired from USC midway through the 2015 season. He took over offensive coordinator duties for Alabama in the 2017 National Championship Game (which they lost to Clemson) after serving as an offensive analyst throughout the season. He is currently the Offensive Coordinator for Atlanta Falcons.

• Todd McNair - USC's Runningbacks Coach. This was McNair's fourth season with USC. The NCAA would later target McNair as part of its probe into the . McNair has since sued the NCAA and the case is ongoing.

• John David Booty - Starting QB. Booty broke his finger sometime during the game (second quarter?) but remained in the game. He threw four interceptions including a pick six, one that set up Stanford's game-winning drive, and one that sealed Stanford's victory.

• Mark Sanchez - Backup QB. He was sitting on the sidelines while Booty was throwing interceptions with a broken finger. Sanchez would start the next three games while Booty was out with a broken finger. The following season, Sanchez led the Trojans to their sixth straight Pac-12 title and a Rose Bowl win against Penn State. Sanchez would be drafted 5th overall by the New York Jets in the 2009 NFL Draft. The "Sanchize" led the Jets to two AFC Championship Games. Since his 5-year stint with the Jets he has become a NFL journeyman, playing for the Eagles, Broncos, Cowboys, and Bears.

• USC's NFL Linebacking Corps - USC's linebacking corps in this game featured future 1st/2nd round draft picks Clay Matthews, Rey Maualuga, Keith Rivers, and Brian Cushing.

Stanford

• Jim Harbaugh - Head Football Coach. Harbaugh completely changed the culture surrounding Stanford football and resurrected the program from the ashes of a 1-11 season. This game would be the marquee win of the Harbaugh era, leading to a huge improvement in winning recruiting battles...and, more importantly, football games. After the 2010 season (in which Stanford finished 12-1 and won the Orange Bowl), Harbaugh left to become the head coach of the San Francisco 49ers. Today, Harbaugh is the head coach of the Michigan Wolverines (because Jed York is an idiot).

• David Shaw - Offense Coordinator. Shaw would later succeed Harbaugh as head coach when he left after the 2010 season to become the head coach of the San Francisco 49ers.

• TC Ostrander - Starting QB. On Sunday, September 30th, 2007, . Due to the seizure, Ostrander would not play in the game against USC.

• Tavita Pritchard - Backup QB. After Ostrander's seizure, Pritchard took over the reigns at QB. He made his first collegiate start against USC...not a bad first start. Today, he is the Kevin M. Hogan Quarterbacks Coach at Stanford (yes...we endowed the title of our Quarterbacks Coach).

• Richard Sherman - WR. Sherman was a WR at Stanford his first three seasons (2006-2008) before transitioning to cornerback before the 2009 season. Sherman converted a 4th and 20 on the game-winning drive with a catch that went for ~20.2 yards and set Stanford up with a 1st and goal with a little over a minute left in the game. Sherman would later be drafted by Pete Carroll and the Seahawks in the 5th round of the 2010 NFL Draft. Sherman would eventually become one of the top CBs in the NFL and (at one point) was the highest paid CB.

• Mark Bradford - WR. Bradford did not practice with the football team for much of the week as he was in Los Angeles with his family following the death of his father. In a "this is so unbelievable I would reject this movie script" moment, Bradford caught the last-minute, game-winning touchdown in his hometown to defeat the #1 team in the country.

The Game

The first half saw USC put up only 9 points, while Stanford's offense put up none. But it was Stanford's defense that really kept them in the game (they recorded 5 turnovers). A goal-line stop at the end of the first half on 4th and goal from the 1 was the big momentum turn. Three minutes into the second half Austin Yancey intercepted one of Booty's passes and returned it for a TD, cutting USC's lead to 2. USC and Stanford then traded TD drives at the end of the 3rd quarter/beginning of the fourth quarter to bring the score to 16-14. With 11 minutes left, a 46-yard TD pass from Booty to Ronald Johnson put USC up 23-14.

With 5:43 left in the game, Stanford kicker Derek Belch cut USC's lead to 6. With three minutes left, Booty overthrew his receiver and the ball landed in the waiting hands of Wopamo Osaisai. Tavita Pritchard then marched Stanford down the field for the game-winning TD pass to Mark Bradford. Another Booty interception thrown to Bo McNally sealed the victory for the Cardinal.

Team Stats -

Key Plays

• USC's Blocked PAT - The 1-point difference in the final score was due to a PAT that Stanford blocked midway through the second quarter that kept the USC lead to only 9-0.

• - With only a couple of minutes remaining in the first half, USC had a first and goal at Stanford 9-yard line, leading 9-0. USC ran the ball on second, third, and fourth downs but was unable to punch it in. The biggest moment came when Stanford stopped USC on a 4th and goal from the 1-yard line with 11 seconds left in the first half.

• - Three minutes into the second half, John David Booty threw the first of his four interceptions to Austin Yancy, who returned the ball 31 yards for the TD.

• - With three minutes left in the game, John David Booty throws his third interception of the game to Wopamo Osaisai, who returns it to the USC 45-yard line, setting up Stanford's game-winning TD drive.

• - With 1:39 left on the clock, on 4th and 20 from the USC 29-yard line, Tavita Pritchard throws a pass directly over the middle to Richard Sherman, who completes an amazing 20-yard catch that makes it just inches across the line to gain.

• - With 0:49 left on the clock, on 4th and goal from the USC 10-yard line, Tavita Pritchard lobs a fade to the left corner of the end zone (the exact same play that was run on third down to Evan Moore). Mark Bradford pulls it in, toe taps, and scores the game-winning TD. The excited Versus announcer is so surprised he screams "Touchdown USC!"

Booty throws an interception that Stanford returns to the USC 45. Tavita Pritchard then marches Stanford down the field (enduring a handful of penalties and incomplete passes). Richard Sherman and Mark Bradford make two of the most icon catches in Stanford Football history. Plus, lots of peak Harbaugh.

I strongly recommend you (it's the first 22 minutes).

The Aftermath

Immediate Aftermath

How unexpected was this result?

This was another in a series of unexpected results during the wild 2007 college football season. College football fans around the country rejoiced when they heard the news of yet another shocking upset. Per :

The final score was announced at the Rose Bowl, where USC's two arch-rivals, UCLA and Notre Dame, were playing each other. Irish and Bruins fans cheered in unison and celebrated together briefly. At the same time, at Tiger Stadium, the #1 LSU Tigers were playing the #9 Florida Gators and the fans in the stadium celebrated when the USC score was announced there, too. The Tigers would later come from behind to beat the Gators 28–24, making them #1 in both polls with USC dropping from #1 in the coaches poll due to the loss.

USC finished the season with a Pac-10 title (shared with Arizona State) and won the 2008 Rose Bowl against an overmatched Illinois team, but this loss ultimately knocked USC out of the national title game. This shocking upset paved the way for LSU to get into the 2008 National Championship Game and beat Ohio State 38-24, becoming the only 2-loss national champion of the BCS/CFP era.

Long-term Aftermath

If there is one game to point to and say this is when the Stanford Football Renaissance began, this is THAT game. The incredible upset validated Harbaugh’s boastful claim that ”We bow to no man. We bow to no program here at Stanford University.” If not for this victory, Harbaugh may not have been able to recruit the players (e.g. Andrew Luck, David DeCastro, Coby Fleener, Zach Ertz) that would become the foundation of the unprecedented success of the last decade of Stanford football. Needless to say, we hold this game very dear to our hearts.

Here is a comparison of Stanford Football in the decade before October 6th, 2007 and the decade since:

This game also revived the USC-Stanford rivalry (which dates back to 1905), which had become very...lopsided in recent years. Since 2007, USC-Stanford has become must-watch television, producing instant classics like 2010 (Stanford defeats USC on a walk-off FG), 2011 (Stanford defeats USC in 3OT), 2012 (Stanford defeats #2 USC 21-14), 2013 (USC defeats Stanford on last-minute FG). Stanford has always hated USC, but in the last decade Stanford has (finally) given USC a reason to hate Stanford, posting an 8-4 record against the Trojans.

Last Decade of USC-Stanford Games

A New Record

For almost ten years, Stanford overcoming a 41-point spread stood as the largest upset in college football history. However, in week 1 of this season, , overcoming a 45-point spread and taking over the record for the largest upset (by point spread) in college football history.

Now, Stanford's 2007 upset of USC stands as the largest upset between two FBS teams.
