Video: '76 Rose Bowl Officials Intro'd

[FredFan7]

1976 game. Don Hakes was the back judge in his last collegiate game. He'd join the NFL in the fall of 1976. Carl Cheffers' dad is also on this crew!

Back then they had split crews from each schools' conference. So we had a mix of Big 10 and Pac 10 officials. I think it's much better now to have neutral crews call the game.

I also like how the referee introduces each official at the coin toss ceremony.

Enjoy!

It's nice that the crew is introduced to the players because it's nice to recognize the officials as well. But I don't think the players care at all. They will forget the official's names before the R is done introducing them.
