The 1974 USC Trojans football team compiled a 10-1-1 record (6-0-1 against conference opponents) finished in second place in the Pacific-8 Conference (Pac-8) and outscored their opponents by a combined total of 363 to 142. The team was ranked No. 1 in the final UPI Coaches Poll and No. 2 in the final AP Poll. On January 1 1975 the Trojans defeated the Ohio State Buckeyes 18-17 in the Rose Bowl to win the national championship.

This lot features a size 9 ¼ Jostens 10K gold ring from that championship campaign that was awarded to the team’s statistician. Sporting the famed USC Trojan logo at the center of the face atop a red stone backdrop encircled by the words "National Champions." The ring includes the name “GARDINO” on one shank along with a helmet and “Rose Bowl 1975” while the other shank has 1974 Trojans and banners with four key victories and the score from each game (Ohio State Notre Dame UCLA and Stanford). The inside band is engraved “Jostens 10K.” The ring is essentially in as-issued and problem-free condition.

Includes LOA from original recipient's grandson.
