The game featured the first on-field appearance by USC long snapper Jake Olson, who as a consequence of retinoblastoma had been blind since the age of 12. Olson successfully snapped the ball for extra point following a touchdown. Western Michigan was informed prior to the play being run and did not rush the line.[1]
