The day was Oct. 21, 2006.
Cal was the No. 11 team in the country and hosting conference rival Washington in its eighth game of the season. The contest was a close one that went to overtime, thanks to a last-second Hail Mary by the Huskies to tie things up at 24.
On the first possession of the extra period, junior running back Marshawn Lynch broke off a 22-yard TD run that put the Golden Bears ahead 31-24. On the ensuing possession, Washington threw an interception to seal the victory for the home team.
Cal's sideline erupted with joy after the game-clinching pick, and that led to arguably one of the greatest moments in sports history: Lynch hopping into the injury and driving around then-Memorial Stadium, much to the delight of everyone in attendance, the Huskies and their fans notwithstanding.
