@Irishfanism That clown is just mad cause his cheating University of Scumbag Cheaters has never and will never accomplish what ND has done. They deserve a cheater like Lame Kitten for a coach.
@jdailey19811 THE MOOSE of USC has some strong advise for someone such as you who continue in their DELUSIONAL RANTS - Proceed immediately to the nearest clinic in your community and see someone who may recommend some solid psychiatric help for that mental illness that you currently have that festers and is promoting advanced dementia. THE GREYMOOSE and his fellow Men of Troy enjoyed whipping those Murdering DOMER's last month and Lane Kiffin is now established as COACH OF THE YEAR!
@huskyjerk It was a great speech,Ara showed nothing but class as he accepted the championship trophy and payed tribute to the Alabama team on playing a great game...worst speech ever???What the hell are you talking about????
@greymoose1000 FYI ND played usc in 1973 and ND won 23-14 that ended the Trojans 23 game winning streak,usc was just another team that fell by the wayside...boy are you stupid!!!!
@Irishfanism Another delusional ND DOMER. By the way, how is the murder investigation coming with you guys killing your own student in the scissors tower this past fall?? That was a great report on ND that the Indiana OSHA provided recently. Fight ON!!!
@greymoose1000 With that comment you have just proved what the whole world knows...usc fan's,and student's have no class at all! What happened was a terrible accident and only sub-humen's like you would get some kind of perverse pleasure over the death of someone that we all cared about!Why don't ask your boy O.J. if he has killed anyone lately I hear he is an expert at that!!!!!
Well, they DID win an NC that year. 1973 was the cusp of a major change. Of the two major wire service awards - AP and UPI at the time - only AP waited til after the bowls to award the NC. So Alabama won the UPI NC that year - though ND won the "consensus" because the other "lesser" awards also waited til after the bowls. Bowls weren't counted at all til 1959, and there have been many "split" NCs, even now since AP pulled out of the BCS mess.
good luck to notre dame too. although this isn't the year, hopefully they'll be back where they belong soon. its time for all the old school teams that made college football great to be back at the top. alabama, penn state, notre dame, michigan, nebraska, oklahoma, usc etc...........
One of college football's all-time greats passed away May 24th, 2007. Pete Demmerle who played such a critical role in this game died of ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease). Pete Demmerle was everything you would want in a collegiate athlete. All American, Academic All American and a special human being. He had the best hands and ran the most precise routes of any ND football player I have seen. May God Bless Pete Demmerle and those he loved!
I have to agree with mspell350. In my lifetime this was the greatest game I have ever seen! Unbelievable game. Why it doesn't get the credit I don't know.
The hitting in that game was incredible. Alabama had a tremendous team and the Bear and Ara were two great icons. Either team could have won, and it was the kind of game you must have been proud to say you played in. Very clean game with no trash talking. You just don't see this today. Only Alabama has as many knuckleheads trying to talk down their great achievements on the internet as the Irish. I respect Bama they are a great tradition.
The game had everything from a National Championship on the line to great defense, intense hitting, a kick return for a touch down, trick plays, great running games, great passing plays, and of course two legendary coaches competing at the highest level. A single point is all that seperated these two great teams. Your point of no trash talking is especially important. This was two classy and dignified teams competing for a championship. This was college football at it finest!
USC Sucks! Cry On!!!! Waaahhhh!
