The Golden Bears will wear the '70s-era throwback uniforms to honor the late Joe Roth in their Pac-12 opener vs. USC.
Roth played the 1976 season knowing he was dying of melanoma; he died in February 1977, three months after his last regular season game and just weeks after playing an all-star game in Japan. His jersey, number 12, is the only one ever retired by the California Golden Bears football program.
