This game was a turning point for ND football.......think about it, they have never really challenged for a national title since this fateful loss. They have never been the same.
I'll never forget that game. ND had made a huge 4th quarter comeback. BC fumbled at least 2 snaps on 3rd and 1s. I've never been so happy to see a team lose!
hey BigB, BC could "own" ND and beat them every year for the next 40 years but ND will still always be better. How many Heismans BC got? 1. ND? 7. How many national titles for BC? that'd be zero (the last time they were undefeated and untied an ND MAN was their coach btw and yes, that was a long looong time ago...). National titles for ND? how about 11 (which is being pretty harsh btw, they don't count titles like Bama does you know)...
I'm a notre dame fan, but I liked when boston college beat them at the end here back then. Cause notre dame was a little cocky for beating florida state, and notre dame humiliated boston college a year before. And also notre dame being overhyped on nbc anyway.

The kick that sent Notre Dame's program straight into mediocrity. Eighteen years later, they still haven't recovered.

FSU and ND knocked the snot outta each other before BC came along and nailed ND's coffin shut for 20 years running

Wow. Yet another home loss to NAVY. I guess Fat Charlie was wrong about that "decided schematic advantage."
Another over-hyped,under-delivered season for the Fraudulent French.

BC owns ND. In light of said ownership, ND has refused to renew their contract with Boston College, instead opting to play a schedule full of patsies.
The Irish are rumored to be negotiating to play against the Coast Guard Academy, at home, in 2011.

A team from the ACC talking smack about an easy schedule? And one that schedules teams from the MAC and Div. 1-AA in out-of-conference games?
You've got some nerve.

Who said anything about that? Your schedule is much more of a joke than ND's. That's all I said.

Fantastic moment in sports history. I love that it's Tom Coughlin coaching BC too. Go Eagles!

This should have set up a West Virginia/Nebraska title game.
B.C. pulls the upset, and there were two unbeaten teams left.
Instead of doing the right thing, Florida State backed in.
IMO, the wrong team benefitted from this upset.

This was a tough one! Every season since this moment, the Irish have not been a contender for the national title. They will be back, though!
