The Band is on the Field | Official Trailer | E60

That play. The play. How to describe it?
How about this…“the most amazing, sensational, dramatic... exciting, thrilling finish in the history of college football!” Those were the exact words used by game announcer Joe Starkey on the day it happened, Nov. 20, 1982. Four decades later, Starkey’s description of the last-second miracle play that included five laterals, a cannon, a trombone, and the bitter rivalry between the Cal Bears and Stanford Cardinals, that description still holds.
In this new episode of E60, host Jeremy Schaap marks the 40th anniversary of the most memorable play in college sports by taking viewers on a journey that blends laughter and life lessons. There are behind-the-scenes stories of the day, tales of how those few seconds on a football field changed lives, and insights into why the play still resonates today. Schaap traveled the country to speak with more than forty people intimately involved with the moment including players, coaches, band members, announcers, mascots, officials, and former students. What emerges makes clear that the 20 seconds it took for the play to unfold, for six words - “the band is on the field” - to become part of the sports lexicon, and for one remarkable play to be etched into our national memory, all of it represents much more than just a fantastic football finish. That play is about who we are and who we want to be.
