[[File:Doing the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge (14927191426).jpg|thumb|Doing the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.]]<br />
The '''Ice Bucket Challenge''', sometimes called the '''ALS Ice Bucket Challenge''', is an activity involving dumping a bucket of ice water on one's head or donating to the [[ALS Association]] in the United States. It went viral throughout [[social media]] in summer, 2014.<ref>{{cite web|author=Lost Coast Of New Zealand |url=http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/charities-benefit-viral-ice-challenge-6023429 |title=Charities benefit from viral ice challenge - National News |publisher=TVNZ |date=2014-07-09 |accessdate=2014-08-17}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cancersocietyauckland.org.nz/newsandmedia |title=News |publisher=Cancer Society Auckland |date= |accessdate=2014-08-17}}</ref><br />
<br />
The challenge dares nominated participants to have a bucket of ice water poured on their head. One common stipulation gives 24 hours from the time they are nominated to complete the dare; otherwise, the participant is asked to donate money to charity.<ref name=nj>{{cite web | url=http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2014/08/chris_christie_gets_in_on_ice_bucket_challenge_dares_cory_booker.html | title=Chris Christie gets in on 'Ice Bucket Challenge,' dares Cory Booker | work=[[Nj.com]] | date=13 August 2014 | accessdate=13 August 2014 | author=Arco, Matt}}</ref><br />
<br />
==Origin==<br />
The origins of the idea of dumping cold water on one's head to raise money for charity are unclear and have been attributed to multiple sources. During the winter of 2013–14, a challenge of unknown origin often called the "Cold Water Challenge" became popular on social media in areas of the [[Northern United States]]. The task usually involved the option of either donating money to cancer research or having to jump into cold water.<ref>{{cite web|author=Iris Perez |url=http://www.myfoxtwincities.com/story/25487940/dnr-dont-rise--cold-water-challenge |title=DNR: Don't rise 'Cold Water Challenge' - KMSP-TV |publisher=Myfoxtwincities.com |date=2014-06-25 |accessdate=2014-08-17}}</ref> It was criticized for the danger of going into cold water unassisted.<br />
<br />
The earliest known version of this challenge was known as the "Cold Water Challenge." It was started by the Sheaves For Christ division of the General Youth Division [[UPCI]]. A video dated April 26, 2014 by Amado Huizar challenges others to donate 100 dollars to the SFC Missions fundraiser or jump into cold water. Many videos followed of people dumping buckets of water on people's heads.<ref>{{cite web|author=Amado Huizar |url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75_hWyGt8i8 |title=DNR: SFC 'Cold Water Challenge' |publisher=youtube |date=2014-04-26 |accessdate=2014-08-18}}</ref><br />
<br />
One version of the challenge started in New Zealand on July 4, 2014, with a fundraising page on behalf of the Cancer Society to help support patients and their families through the trauma of a cancer diagnosis. As with similar challenges, it was usually filmed so footage can be shared online.<ref>[https://www.cancersocietyauckland.org.nz/newsandmedia The Ice Water Challenge]</ref><br />
<br />

<br />
The challenge was popularized in the [[United States]] on June 30 2014 when the Golf Channel Morning Show televised the social media phenom and performed a live on-air ice bucket challenge.<ref>[http://www.golfchannel.com/media/gary-williams-takes-ice-bucket-challenge/ Gary Williams Takes Ice Bucket Challenge]</ref> Soon after, on July 15, 2014, golfer [[Chris Kennedy]] did the ice-bucket challenge and challenged his cousin Jeanette Senerchia of [[Pelham, NY]], whose husband, Anthony, has had ALS for 11 years. A day later she did the challenge while her 6-year-old daughter filmed her in front of their house. Senerchia's network on Facebook connected with Pat Quinn, a 31-year-old in [[Yonkers, NY]], who was diagnosed with ALS in March 2013. Quinn called upon his friends and family. Soon, his whole network was posting challenges, including family in Florida, friends in Ireland and Greece, and a bar full of locals, which was broadcast on local television.<br />
<br />
Quinn's Facebook network overlapped with [[Massachusetts]] resident and former [[Boston College]] [[Boston College baseball|baseball]] player [[Pete Frates]], who has [[ALS]] and began posting about the challenge on [[Twitter]].<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.mtv.com/news/1900335/ice-bucket-challenge-origin/ | title=Who Invented The Ice Bucket Challenge? | work=[[MTV]] | date=15 August 2014 | accessdate=17 August 2014 | author=Kaufman, Gil}}</ref><br />
<br />
The ice bucket challenge has also hit the United Kingdom, where social media feeds are filled with people doing it for the Motor Neurone Disease Association and Macmillan Cancer Support.<br />
<br />
The President of the United States, [[Barack Obama]], was challenged by [[Ethel Kennedy]] but declined, opting to contribute to the campaign with a donation of $100.<ref name=cbslocal>{{cite web | url=http://washington.cbslocal.com/2014/08/13/obama-rejects-als-ice-bucket-challenge-will-donate-to-charity-instead/ | title=Obama Rejects ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, Will Donate to Charity Instead | work=[[CBS DC]] | date=13 August 2014 | accessdate=13 August 2014}}</ref> [[Justin Bieber]],<ref>{{cite web|website=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0Zxf8AHMn0}}</ref> [[LeBron James]],<ref>{{cite web|website=http://www.foxsports.com/nba/story/lebron-james-president-barack-obama-ice-bucket-challenge-als-081714}}</ref> and [["Weird" Al Yankovic]]<ref>{{cite web|website=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nYjEF6e_n8}}</ref> also challenged President Obama after completing the Ice Bucket Challenge.<br />
<br />
== Legacy ==<br />
<br />
Before the “Ice Bucket Challenge” went viral on social media, levels of awareness, fundraising, research dollars, and overall public support were extremely low for a disease that causes enormous suffering.<ref>http://als-advocacy.blogspot.com/2013/08/prevalence-is-red-herring.html</ref> [[Amyotrophic_lateral_sclerosis|Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis]] (ALS), more commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a fatal disease for which there is no known cause or cure. ALS is a degenerative disease of the motor nerves that causes progressive weakness of all voluntary muscles. People with ALS become unable to move, swallow, speak, and breathe without assistance, usually remaining fully aware of what is happening to them and their families. Most ALS patients die within two to five years of symptom onset. Every 90 minutes someone is diagnosed with ALS and every 90 minutes someone dies of the disease. ALS knows no racial, ethnic, or socioeconomic boundaries, often striking people at midlife and at the height of family and financial responsibilities. The devastating physical, emotional, and financial effects caused by the progression of ALS and the 24-hour, seven-day-a-week caregiving required impact not only the patient, but the entire family. The need for greater research and public support has been described by lawmakers as "dire."<ref>See California Revenue and Taxation Code, article 17, section 18881 (http://www.oclaw.org/research/code/ca/RTC/18881./content.html#.U_I8v_uJSuZ)</ref><br />
<br />
After the “Ice Bucket Challenge” went viral on social media, public awareness and charitable donations for ALS soared to unprecedented levels. On August 16, 2014, the ALS Association announced that it received $11.4 million in donations compared to $1.7 million during the same time period in the prior year (July 29 to August 16). These donations came from existing donors and 220,255 new donors to The Association.<ref>ALSA press release (http://www.alsa.org/news/archive/ice-bucket-donations-surpass.html)</ref><br />
<br />
<br />
==Rules==<br />
Within 24 hours of being challenged, participants are to video record themselves in continuous footage. First, they are to announce their acceptance of the challenge followed by pouring ice into a bucket of water. The bucket is then to be lifted overhead and poured over the participant's head. Then the participant can call out a challenge to other people. There is disagreement about the rules at this point. In one version of the challenge, the participant is expected to donate $10 if they have poured the ice water over their head and donate $100 if they have not.<ref name=cbsphilly>{{cite web| url=http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2014/08/12/health-local-als-researchers-take-ice-bucket-challenge/ | title=Health: Local ALS Researchers Take Ice Bucket Challenge | work=[[CBS Philadelphia]] | date=12 August 2014 | accessdate=17 August 2014}}</ref> In another version, dumping the ice water over the participant's head is done in lieu of any donation, which has led to some criticisms of the challenge being a form of [[slacktivism]].<ref name=huffpo>{{cite web |url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ben-kosinski/icebucketchallenge-why-yo_b_5656649.html | title=#IceBucketChallenge: Why You're Not Really Helping | work=[[Huffington Post]] | date=7 August 2014 | accessdate=17 August 2014}}</ref><br />
<br />
==Popular culture==<br />
In the summer of 2014, the Ice Bucket Challenge became a [[pop culture]] phenomenon, particularly in the [[United States]], with numerous celebrities, politicians, athletes, and everyday Americans posting videos of themselves online and on TV participating in the event.<ref name=nj /><ref name="cbslocal"/><br />
<br />
==United Kingdom==<br />
In the United Kingdom, people have also been doing the challenge for the [[Motor Neurone Disease Association]] which is the sister organisation to the ALS Association. The Motor Neurone Disease (MND) Association is the only national charity in England, Wales and Northern Ireland focused on MND care, research and campaigning.<ref>{{cite web|author=MND Association |url=http://www.mndassociation.org/news-and-events/Latest+News/the-mnd-ice-bucket-challenge |title=The MND Ice Bucket Challenge &#124; Latest News |publisher=MND Association |date= |accessdate=2014-08-18}}</ref><br />
<br />
This challenge has inspired other charities in the UK to get involved, including [[Macmillan Cancer Support]], who are calling it the Macmillan Ice Bucket Challenge.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.macmillan.org.uk/donate/Ways-to-support-Us/ice-nominate.html |title=The Ice Bucket Challenge |publisher=Macmillan Cancer Support |accessdate=August 18, 2014}}</ref><br />

<div>[[File:Bill Gates Dumping Ice water.jpg|270px|thumb|right|[[Bill Gates]] dumps ice water on himself in response to a challenge by [[Mark Zuckerberg]] to raise awareness of [[ALS]] research.]]<br />
<br />
The 'Ice Bucket Challenge' is an activity involving dumping a bucket of ice water on one's head, generally in conjunction with donating to the Cancer Society in New Zealand or to the [[ALS Association]] in the United States. It went viral throughout [[social media]], where the challenge was to either dump a bucket of ice water on one's head or to donate to a charity of the participant's choice.<ref>http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/charities-benefit-viral-ice-challenge-6023429</ref><ref>https://www.cancersocietyauckland.org.nz/newsandmedia</ref><br />
<br />
The challenge required nominated participants to have a bucket of icy water thrown over their head. They have 24-hours to complete the mission from the time they are nominated and if they don't complete the dare they have to donate $100 to charity. If you complete the challenge then you only have to donate $10.<br />
<br />
==Origin==<br />
Correction: The Ice Bucket Challenge was in full effect in the United States even in June 2014 (ref: Pastor Michael Penn and First Lady Angela Penn's ice bucket challenge in Martinsville, VA June 11). The challenge continued in [[New Zealand]] on July 4, 2014, with a fundraising page on behalf of the Cancer Society<ref>https://icebucketchallenge.everydayhero.com/nz/ice-bucket-challenge</ref> to help support patients and their families through one of the toughest challenges anyone will face, a [[cancer]] diagnosis. As with similar challenges, it is usually filmed so footage can be shared online.<br />
<br />
The challenge was popularized in the [[United States]] when, on July 15, golfer Chris Kennedy did the ice-bucket challenge and challenged his cousin Jeanette Senerchia of Pelham, N.Y., whose husband, Anthony, has had ALS for 11 years. A day later she did the challenge while her 6-year-old daughter filmed her in front of their house. Ms. Senerchia's network on Facebook connected with Pat Quinn, a 31-year-old in Yonkers, N.Y., who was diagnosed with ALS in March 2013. Mr. Quinn called upon his friends and family. Soon, his whole network was posting challenges, including family in Florida, friends in Ireland and Greece, and a bar full of locals, which was broadcast on local television.<br />
Mr. Quinn's Facebook network overlapped with [[Massachusetts]] resident and former [[Boston College]] [[Boston College baseball|baseball]] player Pete Frates, who has [[ALS]], began posting about it on [[Twitter]]. Together, Senerchia, Quinn and Frates are directly responsible for the tremendous increase in awareness and donations for ALS.<ref>http://www.popopics.com/blog/news/ice-bucket-challenge-videos/</ref><br />
<br />
==Rules for Ice Bucket Challenge==<br />
Within 24 hours of receiving a challenge, participants are to video record themselves in continuous footage. First, they are to announce their acceptance of the challenge followed by pouring ice into a bucket of water. The bucket is then to be lifted overhead and poured over the participant's head. After completion, the participant has the option of extend the challenge and to donate $10 a charity of their choice. Alternatively, they can decline the challenge, in which case they are encouraged to donate $100.<br />

<div>[[File:Bill Gates Dumping Ice water.jpg|270px|thumb|right|[[Bill Gates]] dumps ice water on himself in response to a challenge by [[Mark Zuckerberg]] to raise awareness of [[ALS]] research.]]<br />
<br />
The 'Ice Bucket Challenge' is an activity involving dumping a bucket of ice water on one's head, generally in conjunction with donating to the Cancer Society in New Zealand or to the [[ALS Association]] in the United States. It went viral throughout [[social media]], where the challenge was to either dump a bucket of ice water on one's head or to donate to a charity of the participant's choice.<ref>http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/charities-benefit-viral-ice-challenge-6023429</ref><ref>https://www.cancersocietyauckland.org.nz/newsandmedia</ref><br />
<br />
The challenge required nominated participants to have a bucket of icy water thrown over their head. They have 24-hours to complete the mission from the time they are nominated and if they don't complete the dare they have to donate $100 to charity. If you complete the challenge then you only have to donate $10.<br />
<br />
==Origin==<br />
The challenge started in [[New Zealand]] on July 4, 2014, with a fundraising page on behalf of the Cancer Society<ref>https://icebucketchallenge.everydayhero.com/nz/ice-bucket-challenge</ref> to help support patients and their families through one of the toughest challenges anyone will face, a [[cancer]] diagnosis. As with similar challenges, it is usually filmed so footage can be shared online.<br />
<br />
The challenge was popularized in the [[United States]] when [[Massachusetts]] resident and former [[Boston College]] [[Boston College baseball|baseball]] player Pete Frates, who has [[ALS]], began posting about it on [[Twitter]]. The first recorded ice bucket challenge for ALS was taken by Jeanette Hane Senerchia of [[Pelham, New York]] on July 16, 2014 after she was challenged by Chris Kennedy on [[Facebook]]. The two set out to raise awareness for ALS on behalf of Anthony Senerchia Jr., who has ALS. Together, Senerchia, Quinn and Frates are directly responsible for the tremendous increase in awareness and donations for ALS.<ref>http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/06/college-basketball-players-dump-ice-water-on-their-heads-for-charity</ref><br />
<br />
==Rules for Ice Bucket Challenge==<br />
Within 24 hours of receiving a challenge, participants are to video record themselves in continuous footage. First, they are to announce their acceptance of the challenge followed by pouring ice into a bucket of water. The bucket is then to be lifted overhead and poured over the participant's head. After completion, the participant has the option of extend the challenge and to donate $10 a charity of their choice. Alternatively, they can decline the challenge, in which case they are encouraged to donate $100.<br />

'''Adriel Jeremiah "A. J." Green''' (born July 31, 1988) is an [[American football]] [[wide receiver]] for the [[Cincinnati Bengals]] of the [[National Football League]] (NFL). Green played [[college football]] for the [[University of Georgia]]. He was selected fourth overall by the Bengals in the [[2011 NFL Draft]]. In his first season with the Bengals, Green made the [[2012 Pro Bowl]], the first rookie receiver to make a Pro Bowl appearance since [[Anquan Boldin]] in 2003. Green has caught more passes (260) than any other player in NFL history during their first three seasons.<br />
<br />
== Early years ==<br />
Green was on his elementary school's [[juggling]] team telling ''The Atlanta Journal-Constitution'' that he learned to juggle as early as second grade. Green said he could juggle as many as four items at once, and that the ability helped the development of his hand-eye coordination.<br />
<br />
== High school career ==<br />
Green attended [[Summerville High School]], where he played for the Summerville Green Wave [[high school football]] team, under coach [[John McKissick]]. He was widely considered to be one of the top national football prospects of the 2008 high school class, and was listed #1 by ''Sports Illustrated''.<ref>{{cite web|author=By Jon Mahoney, Special to SI.com, SchoolSports.com |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/highschool/08/04/top10.football08/index.html |title=Green headlines top 10 football players in Class of '08 |work=Sports Illustrated |date=August 4, 2006 |accessdate=April 1, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|author=By Jon Mahoney, Special to SI.com, RISE |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/highschool/12/21/whos.next/index.html |title=Who's Got Next? |work=Sports Illustrated |date=December 22, 2006 |accessdate=April 1, 2012}}</ref> Green earned All-State honors four times and was the only junior nominated to the 2006 ''[[USA Today]]'' All-American first team following 75 receptions for 1,422 yards and 16 touchdowns during his sophomore season. Green was also selected as a member of the [[Rivals.com]] Junior All-America team based on those stats.<ref>{{cite web|author=JC ShurburttRivals.com Football Recruiting |url=http://www.rivals.com/content.asp?cid=638213 |title=Junior All-America Team |publisher=Rivals.com |accessdate=April 1, 2012}}</ref> As a freshman, he had 57 receptions for 1,217 yards and eight touchdowns. As a junior, he had 60 catches for 1,203 yards and 14 touchdowns.<br />
<br />
A. J. Green's 5,373 career receiving yards rank second in the all-time career receiving records of the National Federation of High Schools. His 279 career receptions rank fourth.<ref>{{cite web|last=Lee |first=Roger |url=http://www.ajc.com/sports/content/shared-blogs/ajc/cfbrecruit/entries/2008/02/06/aj_green_signs.html |title=Coach: No receiver better than A.J.

'''Adriel Jeremiah "A. J." Green''' (born July 31, 1988) is an [[American football]] [[wide receiver]] for the [[Cincinnati Bengals]] of the [[National Football League]] (NFL). Green played [[college football]] for the [[University of Georgia]]. He was selected fourth overall by the Bengals in the [[2011 NFL Draft]]. In his first season with the Bengals, Green made the [[2012 Pro Bowl]] and became the first rookie receiver to make it since [[Anquan Boldin]] in 2003.<br />
<br />
==Early years==<br />
Green was on the "[[juggling]] team" at his elementary school, Beech Hill Elementary School in Summerville, South Carolina telling ''The Atlanta Journal-Constitution'' that he learned to juggle balls and props as early as second grade. Green said it helped his hand-eye coordination a lot from an early age. He is able to juggle four balls and various props such as [[juggling club]]s.<ref name="Juggling">{{cite web|author=8:27&nbsp;pm August 20, 2010, by Tim Tucker |url=http://blogs.ajc.com/uga-sports-blog/2010/08/20/juggling-topics-with-a-j-green/ |title=Juggling topics with A.J.

<br />
==High school career==<br />
Green attended Summerville High School in Summerville, South Carolina, where he played under coach [[John McKissick]].<br />
<br />
Green was widely considered to be one of the top football prospects of the 2008 high school class.<ref>{{cite web|author=By Jon Mahoney, Special to SI.com, SchoolSports.com |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/highschool/08/04/top10.football08/index.html |title=Green headlines top 10 football players in Class of '08 |work=Sports Illustrated |date=August 4, 2006 |accessdate=April 1, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|author=By Jon Mahoney, Special to SI.com, RISE |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/highschool/12/21/whos.next/index.html |title=Who's Got Next? |work=Sports Illustrated |date=December 22, 2006 |accessdate=April 1, 2012}}</ref> Standing {{convert|6|ft|4|in|cm|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|205|lb|abbr=on}}.

He hauled in 57 passes for 1,217 yards and eight touchdowns as a freshman. In his junior season, Green caught 60 passes for 1,203 yards and 14 touchdowns. Green was the only junior nominated to the 2006 ''[[USA Today]]'' All-American first team. He was also a member of the [[Rivals.com]] Junior All-America team.<ref>{{cite web|author=JC ShurburttRivals.com Football Recruiting |url=http://www.rivals.com/content.asp?cid=638213 |title=Junior All-America Team |publisher=Rivals.com |accessdate=April 1, 2012}}</ref><br />

Green |publisher=Ajc.com |date=February 6, 2008 |accessdate=April 1, 2012}}</ref><br />
<br />

McAulay is most notable for working five conference championship games as referee since 2001, and officiating [[Super Bowl XXXIX]] and [[Super Bowl XLIII]].<ref name=SB43>{{cite news |title=BIG EAST Coordinator Of Football Officials Terry McAulay To Referee 2009 Super Bowl |url=http://www.bigeast.org/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=19400&ATCLID=3656411 |publisher=[[Associated Press]] |date= 2009-01-28 |accessdate=2009-01-31}} {{Dead link|date=October 2010|bot=H3llBot}}</ref> Beginning his eleventh season as referee (fourteenth season overall) with the [[2011 NFL season]], McAulay's officiating crew consists of umpire [[Paul King (American football official)|Paul King]], head linesman [[Greg Bradley]], line judge [[Mark Steinkerchner]], field judge [[Terry Brown (American football official)|Terry Brown]], side judge [[Michael Banks (American football official)|Michael Banks]] and back judge [[Lee Dyer]].<ref>[http://www.football-refs.com/nfl-referees-by-season/2011-crews/ 2011 NFL officiating crews]</ref><br />

<br />
==Officiating career==<br />
===Early years===<br />
McAulay's football officiating career began in 1976, including many years at the high school level in [[Howard County, Maryland]]. Prior to joining the NFL, McAulay was a referee in the [[Atlantic Coast Conference]] from 1994 to 1997, and was the referee for the [[BCS National Championship Game]] at the [[Miami Orange Bowl]] in 1998.<br />
<br />
===NFL career===<br />
McAulay began his NFL officiating career in 1998 as a side judge on [[Walt Coleman]]'s crew and worked the 2000 NFC Championship game, which was his last game at that position before he became a referee for the [[2001 NFL season]]. He wears uniform number 77. Coincidentally, McAulay wears the same number and originally worked at the same position that was vacated by [[Mike Pereira]], who served as the NFL's Vice President of Officiating from 2001 until February 2010. McAulay was the referee of [[Super Bowl XLIII]]; he had previously served as referee for [[Super Bowl XXXIX]].<ref>[http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/football/nfl/super-bowl/01/28/refs.ap/index.html Super Bowl Referee Crew Officially Named by the NFL] Si.com, January 28, 2009</ref><br />
<br />
===="Bottlegate" incident====<br />
McAulay was the referee in the [[Jacksonville Jaguars]]' controversial 15&ndash;10 victory over the [[Cleveland Browns]] at [[Cleveland Browns Stadium]] on December 16, [[2001 NFL season|2001]] which notoriously ended with a display of dysfunctional [[fan (person)|fan]] behavior. The Browns were driving toward the east end zone for what would have been the winning score. Browns' [[wide receiver]] [[Quincy Morgan]] caught a pass for a first down on 4th and 1. After [[quarterback]] [[Tim Couch]] [[Spike (gridiron football)|spiked the ball]] on the next play to stop the clock, McAulay announced that they were going to review Morgan's catch, saying that the replay officials had buzzed him, indicating for a replay review, before Couch spiked the ball. McAulay did not actually move to his buzzer until well after Couch had snapped and spiked the ball, but replay official Bill Reynolds would later claim that McAulay merely did not react in time to stop the spike play.<ref name=dawgpound>{{cite news | first= | last= | url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/news/2001/12/16/jaguars_browns_ap/ | title=Fans get unruly about overturned call in final minute | publisher=[[Associated Press]] | date=2001-12-16 | accessdate=2011-01-01}}</ref> In reviewing the play, McAulay determined that Morgan never had control of the ball, thus the pass was incomplete, and the Jaguars were awarded the ball. However, fans in the "[[Dawg Pound]]" began throwing plastic beer bottles and other objects directed at and striking players and officials. McAulay then declared the game over and sent the teams to the locker rooms. NFL Commissioner [[Paul Tagliabue]] called the game supervisor to override McAulay's decision, sending the players back onto the field after a thirty-minute delay, where the Jaguars ran out the last seconds under a hail of debris.<ref name=dawgpound/><br />

He started against [[2009 Boston College Eagles football team|Boston College]] and performed well, and saw limited action in 11 other games (all but [[2009 Arizona State Sun Devils football team|Arizona State]]) and played primarily on special teams. In his sophomore year, Kalil beat Smith to replace [[Charles Brown (offensive lineman)|Charles Brown]] at left tackle, where he started all 13 games. He also played on the defensive line for special teams and blocked a [[point after touchdown]] against [[2010 Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team|Notre Dame]].<br />
<br />
As a junior, Kalil retained his starting left tackle spot, helping the Trojans average 456.8 yards of total offense. The Trojans' offensive line only allowed an FBS-low eight sacks of quarterback [[Matt Barkley]], none of which was allowed by Kalil.<ref name="Kalil Draft">[http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/nfl/story/_/id/7358275/usc-trojans-matt-kalil-enter-2012-nfl-draft ESPN: Matt Kalil to enter 2012 draft]</ref> For his effort, Kalil was named to [[2011 College Football All-America Team|several All-American teams]], while also becoming the 12th Trojan offensive lineman to win the [[Morris Trophy]]. Kalil was also semifinalist for the 2011 [[Lombardi Award]].<br />

===2012 NFL Draft===<br />
Already after his sophomore year, Kalil was regarded as the best offensive tackle prospect for the 2012 NFL Draft.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/story/15014424/flash-forward-top-32-picks-for-the-2012-nfl-draft |title=Flash forward: Top 32 picks for the 2012 NFL Draft |date=May 1, 2011 |work=[[CBSSports.com]] |first=Pete |last=Prisco }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/football/nfl/05/03/2012.prospects/ |title=Stanford's Luck headlines early look at top 2012 draft prospects |work=Sports Illustrated |date=May 3, 2011 |first=Tony |last=Pauline }}</ref> He declared for the draft on December 16.<ref name="Kalil Draft" /> After a strong performance at the NFL Combine, Kalil was projected to be the No. 3 draft pick by the [[Minnesota Vikings]],<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.twincities.com/vikings/ci_20045627 |title=As Matt Kalil's stock rises, so do Vikings' trade options |first=Jeremy |last=Fowler |newspaper=Pioneer Press |date=February 25, 2012 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.foxnews.com/sports/2012/03/06/nfl-draft-coming-into-focus/ |title=NFL Draft coming into focus |work=Fox News |date=March 6, 2012 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/writers/don_banks/03/23/2012.mock.draft.3/index.html |title=2012 NFL Mock Draft has Andrew Luck, Robert Griffin going in first two picks |first=Don |last=Banks |work=SI.com |date=March 23, 2012 }}</ref> which would make him USC's fourth offensive lineman selected in the top-3 of an NFL Draft, after [[Ron Yary]] in [[1968 NFL Draft|1968]], [[Anthony Muñoz]] in [[1980 NFL Draft|1980]], and [[Tony Boselli]] in [[1995 NFL Draft|1995]]. With [[Tyron Smith]] having been selected ninth overall in [[2011 NFL Draft|2011]], it would also make USC the first school with consecutive top-10 selected offensive lineman since [[Texas Longhorns football|Texas']] [[Leonard Davis]] ([[2001 NFL Draft|2001]]) and [[Mike Williams (offensive lineman)|Mike Williams]] ([[2002 NFL Draft|2002]]).<br />
