I never saw this video before and there are quality issues with it. I think it is worth the watch, though. When i think of USC in MN I think of the OJ Simpson game, and the Brewster era game at TCF.
There was zero recall on this game, and I must have been too into Disco or video games, because Marion Barber and the one and only Marcus Allen was at University and Oak St. that day.
The only online video i had seen before of a full game at Memorial Stadium was the 1981 game the next year vs. Ohio State.
USC, Minnesota 1980, second to last year at Memorial with Salem at HC. A lot of interesting comments and a couple of shots of the MPLS downtown that I recall from recent BTN broadcasts.
I sort of forgot that that Marion Barber was already a legend by then. (233 yards , Illinois game 1979, all time rushing leader, career)
