Yards to Glory

38. Best Friends Forever

Pat Haden, J.K. McKay team up to win Rose Bowl

Jan. 1, 1975: USC athletic director Pat Haden and his right-hand man, J.K. McKay, have a long history, together and as Trojans. Not only are they boyhood pals, but Haden connected with McKay for a 38-yard touchdown with just more than two minutes left in the 1975 Rose Bowl, a score that set up the two-point conversion that gave the Trojans an 18-17 win over Ohio State. So their collaboration has worked for USC before.
