I, a huge Michigan fan for 42 years, was in a coma when this game was played. Clinging to life in the ICU. I survived that huge challenge and was so thrilled to be able to watch this game 6 weeks later. It spurred me on to an even greater recovery. Go, Blue!. And thank you, boys.

Cool story. Ironically, a month before this game I was in a coma from a brain injury and was just out of the hospital. I thought the end of this game would give me a heart attack. I collapsed on the floor and then cried, happy to be alive. True story. I hope you are better.

Notre Dame's play in this segment is easily one of the greatest defensive collapses in FBS history. Michigan traversed 50 yards on the first score and 80 yards on the second without even calling a timeout.

Roundtree caught this right in front of my friend and I. I told him when we bought tickets it would be worth it. We would see something cool in Michigan Stadium's first night game.

This game broke the shit out of my heart.... Ughh i can’t believe I even rewatched this

I was watching this with my family and everybody fell asleep on me and i stayed up and keept watching the whole game and in not a fan of ethier team but i like mich. more than noter damn and i was so happy when they won. This is one of the craziest games ive ever seen.

Greatest game I ever attended and I'm old as dirt, now. This one and the MSU Punt Game. Both ends of the spectrum as far as you can stretch it... What a stadium. What a team. GO BLUE FOREVER.

chills.... even after 2 years I still get chills from watching this game.

WOW! This brings tears to my eyes! GO BLUE! As a Michigan man, I can ALWAYS wear my colors with pride!

The best game I've ever watched my wolverines play. I started watching Michigan as a die hard fan in 2009, I'm only 19. I can't believe this game is almost 10 years old now. Absolutely crazy, love my wolverines. I wish I could've been there that day. The crowd and atmosphere gives me chills even all these years later.

I get chills everytime. I'm going to miss this rivalry after this weekend.

Greatest 1:41 in Michigan football history, and that's saying a LOT! Thank you for letting us relive this glorious game!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As a Michigan fan who lives 30 minutes away from the Golden Dome, Michigan beating ND never gets old.

one of the most exciting finishes that season, hands down.

This is probably one of the best michigan games vs notre dame iv ever seen. Not to mention it bein the first ever night game in michigan football stadium history. Most entertaining game iv seem. O yea i almost forgot the way they dressed to make the game look like its a old time back in the day type game plus the referees were dressed like back in the day and the best of all it could not have came at a better time n i say that cause its Desmond Howard tribute day and when you look back at what Desmond Howard did to the Irish it makes the win even sweeter. I'm 34 years old and I remember this game like it was yesterday, and the main reason why I remember it is because after Notre Dame scored that touchdown with only I think 41 seconds left and of course Denard Robinson and the rest of the team of course did not give up they played till the time was all zeros. When they took over the ball with just that many seconds left you could feel it just by looking at him that they weren't given up without a fight and the heart it took for them not to go for the game-tying field goal but the game-winning touchdown.( not to mention takes alot of balls) So I'll definitely put this game in my top 5 games I've ever seen Michigan play whether it's against anybody. But I have to say the number one game I've ever seen Michigan play was when they played Michigan State and they were down by quite a bit and they came back and one because of chad henne throwing it up to Braylon Edwards and of course with both of them having so much talent and Braylon having the greatest receiving ability out there of course he's going to make plays against anybody who covers him and that's obviously what happened. If it wasn't for him making the plays that he did we would not have won that game and then it goes into overtime and then they come down with the win. In the best thing of all is they were down by so much but they never gave up that's the Michigan way. I don't think I've ever felt so good about a Michigan win then that day. I remember what I was feeling like when I was watching it and I seen the Michigan State running back run at like 70 yards for a touchdown I thought it was the end of it and I never felt so down about a football game in my life and when Michigan came back and won that game I said to myself that this will be probably the best Michigan game I've ever seen not to mention them doin it to one of are Arch rivalrys. Gosh i love MICHIGAN. I am a religious person and I pray that from now on Michigan will beat Ohio State as many times as they can just to make everything so much sweeter. But I'm going to be real and say Ohio State is a very good team they are almost every year even when they're not a good team they always put up a good fight against Michigan, when it comes to Michigan and Ohio State rankings really don't matter in my opinion, I seen Michigan ranked number 4 and despite Michigan being ranked number 4 it didn't bother Ohio State one bit in Ohio stay ended up winning that game. so with me being a big big Michigan fan I'm going to go ahead and pray at Michigan beats Ohio State this year it would be in Epic year, the lost to Notre Dame this year isn't the worst that could have happened shoot we might get another chance at them in a playoff game. We'll see what happens and like always GO BLUE 💪.

I was at this game in the Michigan end zone. It was THE most electrifying game that I ever saw or will see. When my son’s and I left the stadium after celebrating for an hour after the game I told them that this was a 100 year game. A game they will never forget. GO BLUE! 〽️

I was with my two boys 13 and 11 at a soccer tournament in South Bend the day this game was played. We were in a hotel room watching the game. I could never get comfortable with Denard’s insane, risky style of offense. I threw the remote at the TV with like 4:00 left in the game when Norte Dame scored to go ahead. I was pissed that I would have to see beaming ND parents all happy the next day. I was grinding my teeth trying to fall asleep. We didn’t find out until the next morning that Michigan had performed a miracle.

As a Spartan fan during this era, the only times me and my Dad were pulling for UM was during these games was vs ND. We knew we could beat UM, so if they beat ND that's another rivalry game we would win. This game is no exception.

UM's all american QB Denard Robinson in just 2 "official" Games vs Nd in his career (3-0 overall) had GET THIS over 900 yards of total offense vs hapless ND in back to back victories for UM in 2010 and this game in 2011 that will live in college lore ETERNALLY. It is BY FAR the most dominating back to back display vs ND by a single opponent player in history. Robinson also threw 4 TD passes in this game while rushing for well over 100 yards! ND fanatics still have nightmares over this game. The ND chokers were leading 24-7 IN THE 4th Quarter and still choked the game away. Glorious!

Regardless of the dark side to ND football in the past, both Michigan & ND are undeniably linked by their football histories, and both have greatly contributed to the history and evolution of the sport. Yes, Michigan preceded ND & introduced football to the Irish. Actually the "House that Rockne Built" is a smaller replica of Michigan Stadium. Although Knute Rockne feuded with Fielding Yost, he was impressed by Michigan's stadium & the stature of Michigan football.

Michigan is the better school in all aspects. NO DOUBT!

Definitely this game is in the Top 5 list of all time Michigan games.

It's a good thing Michigan has a lot of history, because for the past 15 years, they sure as Hell have been living in it.

I wouldn't say it's the greatest game they ever played but damn it was a memorable one. Section 7 row 71. Quite possibly the best thing I've ever been apart of.

I was at the game and it was exciting! Sooooo glad Denard is back at Meeechigan on the Football Staff!!! All the best to him and Go Blue!

The noise level when Roundtree caught that ball was unbelievable. Nothing compares to it

I'm a buckeye fan and i remember this game. Its was a great game and i respect the wolverines. But go bucks. Cant wait till november, the rivalry just got sweeter with Hoak and Meyer in the picture. Good Luck!!

This was one of the greatest finishes I've ever seen LIVE

Throwbacks. College Gameday. Rivalry. UM first night game. Comeback victory. Last second Game winning TD.The real game of the century

Robinson was most exciting player Michigan has ever had in my opinion. I just love to watch him play Michigan QB..

Huge Ohio State fan, but I love what Michigan did at the end of this game. let's see The Game under the lights here soon!

Denard could have been an excellent QB if he had good mechanics. 95% of his throws were made either off balance or on the run. He had the arm strength before the injury yet could never lose the happy feet. If he had been able to be more accurate, it might have saved the arm from the nerve injury and maybe just maybe could have played under center in the NFL. Kudos to him for making it work at RB.

Hands down the best jerseys that Adidas made for both of those teams

LOL! funniest game ever! not ND or Michigan fan but love watching this.

im an ohio state fan but u gotta love a team with the determination to make a comeback and fans tht are soooooo loud... good job michigan

Never gets old. Ever.

as a Notre Dame fan watching this game, I will always hate Michigan I was incredibly pissed at the end of the game but I give them props for winning this game and knowing the Notre Dame v. Michigan rivalry, I knew that this would be one of the top games that these two would play in against each other and especially being the very first game to ever be played in The Big House at night under the lights! The rivalry between these two teams is becoming more and more of a rivalry every year.

Bennie Friedman is another story in itself. He was a QB for Michigan from 1924 to 1927 & played for the NY Giants. He was the son of Russian Jewish immigrants. In 2005, he was finally enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame & recognized for revolutionizing the passing game in college & in the NFL. Friedman is known as the "Babe Ruth" of football. He was just 1 of many players not given the recognition he deserved thanks to the media hog tactics of Knute Rockne & ND at that time.

that has to be the best atmosphere at a college football game EVER.

I absolutely Love It! And I love the comment by Brent Mussberger at 10:20 on this vidoe "Let me go back I said Denard Robinson is one of the most exciting players in college football; He is The Most Exciting Player in college Football!" GO BLUE ♥

Excitement followed by depression followed by Pure Awesomeness!!!

We have a National Title in the last 15 years. Not many teams can say that. Maybe 10 from the top of my head.

Has to be one of the best games in Michigan history.

How he did at the combine doesn't matter as much as what he did in his career. I'm not saying that he set the world on fire at WR, but he was good enough to have a 9 year NFL career, and was an All-Pro in 2005. A lot of players entering the pros would be real happy with that.

They are both storied programs. And this is gonna be one helluva game.

The point his is making is that they are a program of traditions. Those of us that are real fans and survived the Rich Rod years are the real fans, and were so happy to see the traditions return, not the wins, those are nice, but the traditions.

Watching this to pump up for tomorrow night. GO BLUE BABY!!!!!!!!!!!

I dont care for either team and this still gives me chills. Its a shame we wont be seeing this any more.

I'm from Arkansas, and an Arkansas Razorback fan. And the only knowledge I have of Michigan Wolverines is the hour long video on KZread about their rivalry with Ohio State, still, I think I'm becoming a fan....

i go to MSU, and i was watching this game with my friend who was going to UofM. this was the perfect game for the first ever night game, very entertaining to watch my friend squirm throughout the whole thing. i didn't care who won, both offenses deserved to win in the last 2 minutes, and both defenses deserved to lose in the last 2 minutes

Magical Night! "Shoelaces" Denard Robinson, great atmosphere! More Night games for Michigan please!!

At 12:54 he said the athletic department would like to play a night game every year. I understand why they would do that, but this was something special. I think special occasions like this should happen like every 2 years, play either Ohio State or Notre Dame under the lights, now that would be great. thumbs up if you agree.

thank you. but we are still gonna kick their ass in my mind. but who knows they might make it close or even win. but we will all find out come september 1st. this is one of the most hyped up games of the season i've ever seen.
