That win left ND at 6-1-1 ranked #13. Unfortunately ND would lose their next 3 games (Penn State, Air Force & USC) to end up 6-4-1 and not go to a Bowl Game.

I was 19 or 20 years old when i watched this game, will never forget it. Gotta love this old school huge shoulder pads.. GO IRISH!!!!

All my friends before the game doing the "cheerios" thingy...hope ND had Cheerios to celebrate hahahah!!

Incredible footage! Loved every second of it! Go Irish! Go Army!

Tony Roberts...great memories!

The GOAT of pregame intros!

when did they stop letting fans come help celebrate TDs in the end zone? 😆

Gerry Faust is a gem in Notre Dame history. A great catholic story like Rudy

So here we are - perfect seasons at stake, a game in a perfect place, a collision for history… Enough said.

I was at this game. I was 7. I still remember walking to the super dome

The goal line stand of sorts to hold MIA to a FG to make it 10-3 instead of 14-3 was huge. MIA was on the 1 yard line, had just hit a huge pass down the middle and had picked off Mirer the play before that. If Miami sticks that in on 1st down, its really deflating. Instead ND held and turned the game around. Rocket Ismail.....what else can you say about that dude in College....he was unstoppable.

A town was literally named after him!

Lol why would any team, even the great Hurricanes, kick it right to the Rocket? The guy had world class speed.

31 years later and I still get goosebumps. 13 year old me was so hyped for this game. This intro had me ready to suit up. Go Irish!

Bobby Costas got it wrong. Alabama has the most national championships. RTR!!!

Dan Dierdorf was a class act, he was Michigan guy that always respected ND football. I can't say enough about him. HOF player & great announcer, I miss him calling games.

31 years later I still get chills watching this.

Wow ..even tho I’m a Michigan Man and never cared for either of these teams but this is one of the greatest intros Ever.. Pure nostalgia of Playing football in my grandparents yard imaging I’m running back a KR to win the RoseBowl. And wasn’t that far from Main st. Every Hs Game I ever played was down the st from Main st, this Intro embodies my childhood, wow 💯💯

1949 team was phenomenal. easily one of the top 5 ND teams of all time

😊 those. Notre. Dame. Helmets and. Uniforms

Big thumbs down, how about showing the score..... touchdown after touchdown yet no score, waste of time, block channel 👍

Although I'm a lifelong fan of college football, I never followed these two teams, and until recently was not familiar with their '46 game. The background of this game, those two teams, and individual players in that game is just incredible. So many overachievers, including several recently returned combat veterans. Johnny Lujack, who only recently (2023) passed away at the age of 98, is a great example. Valedictorian, West Point appointee (he chose ND instead), Navy combat veteran, four sport letterman (on at least one occasion he played in a varsity baseball game and track meet on the same day), two way football player (halfback, QB, DB, and kicker), AP Athlete of the Year, Heisman winner, All Pro for the Chicago Bears (QB, DB, and kicker), and an NFL Hall of Fame inductee.

I was visiting a friend that day who was a teaching assistant at Indiana University, and he gave me a tour of the Bloomington campus. We'd see bits of this game on monitors in various places. What a day! I was immersed in two great Indiana colleges.

What was the line in this game?

Rudy was in the stands.

Wow! Notre Dame in a losing season beat USC 37-3. No wonder USC made a coaching change after the following season

When Miami was a powerhouse 🍊

Julius Dawkins....#80 Monessen Standout...Marino to Dawkins produced some magical moments...& the fumble wasn't one of them,BUT.....JD wasn't the only player to ever fumble the football...and without that passing combo,of Marino to Dawkins Pitt isn't #1 going into ND game...

Fight on for old Notre Dame!! That must be the theme with the USC fight song humming in the background. As an ardent Michigan State fan, I would love to see equal time granted to the Munn men of the Spartans. After those two losses, Biggie Munn beat Leahy three consecutive times from 1950-52. And when I say beat, I mean having their asses handed to them. In their last two meetings, MSU won by a combined total of 56-3!! Including a 35-0 whitewashing in 1951. As great as Leahy was, Munn was certainly on his level. Perhaps better. As great a sacrilege as that sounds. He remains the only coach to have a winning record against the master.

So awesome... and I was there, south end zone! Go Irish!☘

One of the unfortunate aspects of this game was that integration was yet to really take hold as it did later on. Leon Hart of Notre Dame said that the Irish had the greatest collection of talent ever assembled. HOW?! How good could any all white team be? Positions of speed are dominated by black athletes. Blanchard and Davis wouldnt make a pimple on the bum of Barry Sanders or Jim Brown. Just as the best defensive backs, receivers and many other positions are dominated by black athletes. There have been many splendid white players. That doesnt change the athletic edge black players had in numerous positions. Its only fair and honest to extend that well-deserved praise.

Back when college football was so fun, now it absolutely sux

I was at this game and Notre Dame fans were outnumbered 5 to 1 and no one expected the Irish to win. Just incredible. Great comeback. Jerome B. was a beast!!

Lindsay Null rocked the S*** out of this one!

I love seeing Thug U lose

Announcers to biased

I watched this live as a kid, amazing, but also terribly tackling…I believe in one game at the end one got called back for holding and he ran it back twice in a row, I forget what game that was

Tickets to this game started at 2895.93 in today's cash

He's the reason I became a ND fan! Love the Rocket!

Why doesn't Notre Dame wear green jerseys all the time?

I remember that game fighting Irish

If ND was so good why were they always behind?

why is the USC fight song in the background my ears are bleeding

This will darn near move you to tears

“A game in a perfect place” Anybody who has been to Notre Dame’s campus on a game day knows this to be true. It’s a place like no other. And an energy you will never forget.

Miami’s last loss until ‘Bama slaughter in Sugar Bowl?

Just something so soothing about the combination of that music, the storyline and bob costas voice 🥹

Before Pete Caroll began paying his players
