Where are They Now?

I grew up loving Notre Dame. This is no secret and anyone who has known me for any length of time knows I have a soft spot in my heart for Notre Dame. While the 2005 Texas football season will always be my most memorable year from a fan standpoint, the 1993 Notre Dame season ranks a close 2nd as far as interest and satisfaction in watching a team play.

In 2005, I had the good fortune of seeing that team play multiple times including its 4 most important games:


09/03/05 La.-Lafayette W 60-3

09/10/05 @ Ohio St. W 25-22

09/17/05 Rice W 51-10

10/01/05 @ Missouri W 51-20

10/08/05 + Oklahoma W 45-12

10/15/05 Colorado W 42-17

10/22/05 Texas Tech W 52-17

10/29/05 @ Oklahoma St. W 47-28

11/05/05 @ Baylor W 62-0

11/12/05 KansasW 66-14

11/25/05@ Texas A&M W 40-29

12/03/05+ Colorado W 70-3

01/04/06+ Southern California W 41-38

The 4 games I attended that year were Ohio St, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Southern California. The years prior to '05 I was able to attend many more home games, but I wouldn't trade the experience and those 4 games listed for anything.

Well, if you think about that '05 season that is how I felt for the 1993 Notre Dame season. I only saw that team in person once at the Cotton bowl after their tragic loss to Boston College.

Take a look at ND's schedule from 1993:

9/4 Northwestern 27 -12 W

9/11 @Michigan 27 -23 W

9/13 michigan st. 36 - 14 W

9/25 @ Purdue 17 - 0 W

10/2 @ Stanford 48 - 20 W

10/9 Pittsburgh 48 - 0 W

10/16 @ Brigham Young 45 - 20 W

10 / 23 Southern Cal 31 - 13 W

10 /30 Navy 58 - 27 W

11/13 Fla St. 31 - 24 W

11/20 BC 39 - 41 L

1/1 TExas A&M 24 - 21 W

Here is an interview with the QB from that Notre DAme team and listed as one of my heros on myspace page.
