bisonlj, I believe that was Matt Leinhart and some DB for USC. (side note: remember when he used to actually be good?)

There was a lot of number-sharing when I played college ball... when you have 140 kids on the team, and only 98 usable numbers (one number was retired, I think it was #84), you're gonna have to have some repeats.

They did try to make sure that if 2 players shared a number, that they either played on opposite sides of the ball, or that one of the players was significantly younger then the other. (A senior o-lineman, for example, might share #65 with a freshman o-lineman... highly unlikely that any situation would develop that would require both of them to be on the field at the same time).
