Saturday's UCLA-USC game not only provided us with one of the games of the year in college football, it also gave us one of the all-time great security guard tackles of a fan on the field.

It really does not need any more explanation than the video itself can provide.

This all happened after USC had defeated the Bruins 48-45 in a thrilling game that eliminated UCLA from contention for the Pac-12 title game, while also keeping USC's slim college playoff hopes alive.

The Trojans overcame an early 14-0 point deficit (and later a 21-10 deficit) to get the win to improve to 10-1 on the season. The Trojans entered the game ranked seventh in the latest college playoff rankings.

USC's only remaining game will be against Notre Dame. It finished the conference season with an 8-1 mark, with its only loss being a 43-42 thriller against Utah.

It could be a Pac-12 Championship game rematch as USC has already clinched its spot in that game.
