76. Pick-Six

Alterraun Verner seals UCLA win over Cal with interception

Oct. 24, 2007: California, which notably lost to Oregon State a week before and blew its shot to be No. 1, was driving for a comeback win in the final two minutes, but Alterraun Verner intercepted a Nate Longshore pass and sprinted 76 yards to the end zone with 1:33 remaining. Neither team would do much of note for the rest of the season. The Bruins improved to 5-2 but would lose five of their final six games, and coach Karl Dorrell lost his job. Meanwhile, the 10th-ranked Bears became snared in a downward spiral that would see them lose six of their final seven games.
