HIDEF SCREEN CAP SEQUENCE OF MCNEAL'S SWEET GRAB
From the Diaries. -N
It's 3rd and 4 at the UCLA 18 yard line with 1:15 left in the game. USC is down by 4 points. The drive started on the USC 29.
Booty's pass is deflected by Eric McNeal:
OH YEAH!
Bruce Davis' glove on McNeal's helmet reads "PROVE THEM WRONG" and "FOR THE FAMILY":
Bruins after the big play:
Even though it is blurry, the following frame gives you an idea of McNeal's leaping ability. Look at that elevation :) He jumped at the 22 yard line. I know this from reviewing frames from other replay angles. USC #2 is in the backfield around the 12 yard line.
GO BRUINS !
I reminded myself how loose the turf was (remember the QBs slipping quite a bit). Reviewing the McNeal catch there's quite a bit of force as he springs almost instantly towards the ball after tipping the ball from a pretty sizable height. Quite a catch indeed.
Here's some info about these screen caps. Source is over the air ATSC (HDTV) in ABC's usual 720p. Over the air is just UHF. The video bit rate is NOT compressed like you will find on high def cable or satellite. The mpeg2 and surround sound stream is written to a MythTV backend with dual ATSC tuner cards. The backend has 600 GB of disk storage and being upgraded to one terabyte. Video can be trans coded to other video formats like DVD-format mpeg2 with some degradation of the high definition. Some frames are blurry because, well, this is sports, and cameras can whip around and zoom frantically to capture those incredible moments... like this one!

Take a look at the first frame. Good enough? I just resized the IMG tag to 500 x 281. Can do the rest of them.

Whoever wrote "prove them wrong" on his gloves is my new best friend.

Not sure where else to put this, but...
Kiffin said McNeal only made the interception by failing to blitz.
"(McNeal) was supposed to come and didn't," Kiffin said." He screwed up. It was unfortunate the way it happened."
Here's the whole article...

So, basically Kiffin got clowned the entire game by Coach Walker, and suddenly he knows when McNeal is or isn't supposed to blitz? Until I hear that from one of our coaches, I'm not buying it.

I love the spin.
Fucking sore losers all over USC. They don't even have the class to man up and accept the loss. Christ, they make me sick.

Dear Mr. Kiffin,
Love,
THE ENTIRE BRUIN FAMILY!

Yet another weak Kiffin quote
At least Jarrett can man up and give McNeal credit.

The play..........
I am not even sure the 4th down play they did make was accurate. A Bruin came out of that pile with the ball.
What a bunch of hoseheads those Coaches are.

If you want to send me the video...

DVD
I spent 10 hours compiling a DVD video FILE of the greatest moments of the game. It gave me chills (the good kind) just watching it.
Good news: It is HDTV in DVD format (.mpg file).
Bad news: It is 600MB and I have no good place to host it.
Does anyone in the Bruin community have a way to host this large file?
Or do we have enough Bruin fans to get at least 5 seeders going on Bittorrent?
Or split the file into smaller pieces and spread them around somewhere?
Or other ideas?
If we can work together, everyone can enjoy this beautiful video footage. Having the actual/live game audio is a real treat.
