This game was a rout for ND. ND 49 USC 19 I was in the ND band. USC band was awesome.

I was at this game and the fans were really in the game from the get go. The psychological advantage of the Trojan horse,plus the green jerseys and the good defense by ND was too much for USC.

All of those future NFL superstars on that field..

Joe Montana, 49 points...nothing more needs to be said.

Ronnie Lott was then a freshman at USC, and had limited playing time. It would have been interesting to see Joe throwing a pass to Ronnie's area.

Those green jerseys put ND and the fans over the top . They warmed up in traditional blue then switched prior to kickoff .

That was John Robinson ' entire playbook. Student body left and student body right.

Arguably the best regular season gm in nd history

there was some pretty good ones during the Holtz era. A couple against Michigan, the one against Miami, and the '88 USC game when both were undefeated and Holtz suspends two star players and they still go out there and win. And, as you said, this was a great one too. In fact, if a list was made, I'd think it would be dominated by USC games. Even the gut wrenching losses after the big halftime leads out on the coast could be included as they've become iconic folklore.

Perhaps, but the 31-30 win over Miami, in '88 on the final play, is up there

Great fricken day

it's crazy how the fans were right down on the field during this game---they were running on the field after Notre Dame touchdowns...don't think that it would happen today

That was really sad. The Referees were either Notre Dame graduates or they had no courage to call some penalties on the crowd. A true shame. A circus in the wrong place

TOP 5 NOTRE DAME GAME OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was the broadcast that caused millions to think the color on their set was off. Nope, that’s ND in green.

Why doesn't ND alway have those green (sherwood green) jerseys?

Notre Dame has only one 1 National Championship since 77.None since 88.

Sorry to disagree with you but it sounds like times have changed but you haven't. There was a time when no women were enrolled at ND etc. Go Irish.
