So much for the myth of unbiased refs.

Joe Starkey calls final Big Game 40 years after band was out on field

BERKELEY, Calif. -- Joe Starkey thought he had blown the call.

Hours after "the most amazing, sensational, dramatic, heartrending, exciting, thrilling finish in the history of college football," Starkey attended a neighborhood party near his home in Walnut Creek, California, about 15 miles East of Cal's Memorial Stadium. The date was Nov. 20, 1982, and Starkey had spent the day calling the Big Game, featuring archrivals Cal and Stanford.

Starkey, the eighth-year radio play-by-play voice for Cal, scrambled to find a highlight of what had happened in the final four seconds, a scene that would become known in sports lore simply as: The Play.
Trailing 20-19, Cal fielded a kickoff with four seconds left. The Bears made five laterals, the last going to Kevin Moen. As Starkey shouted, "The band is out on the field!" Moen weaved through Stanford band members, crossed the goal line and plowed into trombonist Gary Tyrrell.

Final score: Cal 25, Stanford 20.

"I thought I'd screwed it up completely," Starkey said. "I was too excited, not enough detail."
Even in the KGO radio booth, amid the mayhem and excitement after Cal's victory, Starkey felt fear run through him.

"I realized pretty quickly the magnitude of what had happened," he said. "Now, my fear is, did I do it right? Did I make the call right? Did I screw it up and say something I shouldn't have, or did I miss something I should have had? That haunted me."

Eventually, Starkey warmed up to the call that would change his life, the one that will forever be associated with him. He's called Super Bowls as the San Francisco 49ers radio play-by-play voice. While working for ABC at the 1980 Winter Olympics, he did an impromptu call of the third period of the U.S.-Russia "Miracle On Ice" game, which aired on ABC's West Coast radio affiliates.

But no single moment will compare to the one 40 years ago in Strawberry Canyon. The one that got him recognized on the streets of Tokyo and in a hotel pool in Rome with the drummer for the Rolling Stones. Now 81, Starkey will call his final Big Game this week as he prepares for retirement after 48 seasons as the voice of the Bears.

"They're going to bury me with it," Starkey said of his famous call. "It will be the first words when I die in the obituary. It lives on forever, apparently. This is 40 years later, and it's starting all over again."

Caleb Williams's best moments:



Actually, I'm being unfair. He's a pretty decent QB & probably better this year than he was last (I have watched very little of USC this year). What that game demonstrated, really the entire season, was that out defense was outstanding. We know now how much we are missing Pitre, Bernard, Woods, etc.
