The camera looks across the Coliseum's field during a football game between UCLA and St. Mary's. At center, a UCLA player (white jersey) and a St. Mary's player (dark jersey) both appear to await a pass. Behind and to the right of them, a football sails in the air towards them. Players from both teams and a referee stand spread across the field behind them. Crowds fill the Coliseum's stands, which stretch across the background.
