Greatest Moments in Notre Dame Football History
"I saw them come out screaming in those jerseys, and I knew we were in trouble." --USC linebacker Clay Matthews on the green-jersey game in 1977"Whereas those legendary Four Horsemen of the '20s did it with sleight of hand, these Three Horsemen did it with in-your-face brute force." --New Orleans Times-Picayune after Notre Dame's 39-28 victory over heavily favored Florida in the 1992 Sugar Bowl"Someone stepped on my ankle and someone else stepped on my back.... I said `Please get off me, I can't breathe.' They just kept piling on. It was just the greatest feeling I ever had." --Notre Dame's Reggie Brooks on his 78-yard run in the 17-16 win over Penn State in 1992"I was so fortunate that, during the three years I played at Notre Dame, we won 33 football games and lost only four times. Of those 37 games, we came into 21 of them as the No. 1 team in the nation. That's what those games meant from one Saturday to the next." --from the foreword by Chris Zorich
