NORMAN — Notre Dame is a wonderful school, a fantastic institution and a
slice of American history that simply can’t be denied. Just ask Regis
Philbin.
But even taking Regis at his word, it is forever easier to be repulsed than
charmed by the Golden Domers, even for a Bishop McGuiness grad like me.
I mean, really, it’s Notre Dame.

因為每個真正的美國大兵都知道,1944年11月11日,陸軍在洋基球場大勝聖母。比分,
59:0。
40年代的陸軍隊長斯特菲(Joe Steffy)回憶說:「陸軍對聖母,當年就像是超級盃。」

Parseghian's candidacy for the head coaching job at Notre Dame was unusual
because he was not a Notre Dame graduate, as every head coach since Knute
Rockne had been.[38] Parseghian was also an Armenian Presbyterian, making
him the first non-Catholic coach since Rockne, who converted in 1925.[34][39
] Joyce made it clear before his hiring that he did not care about
Parseghian's religion, but simply wanted someone who could lead the football
team to success.[40] |

NFL刚刚开始的时候很艰难, 一直被NCAA压着,
第一次得到承认,

事前大家都没想到, 事后Knute Rockne也公开说,
看来职业球队的确是要比大学的强, 算是给了这个默默无闻的NFL大面子.
然后有十几年, 都有一场NFL冠军对大学全明星的比赛.
