7:00 PMNovember 13, 1993: Notre Dame vs. Florida State (ND wins 31-24)
Often called the Game of the Century that pitted the two best teams in the nation back in 93 (1 Florida State vs. 2 Notre Dame). It was an epic battle at Notre Dame Stadium that went down to the last play of the game, upsetting eventual Heisman Trophy QB Charlie Ward and dethroning the Seminoles as the best team in all of college football.
Thursday, November 1
7:00 PMSeptember 14, 2002: Notre Dame vs. Michigan (ND wins 25-23)
In the annual match-up of one the best rivalries in all of sports, the Notre Dame-Michigan battle in the Irish 2002 Return to Glory season was certainly one to remember. The 20-ranked Fighting Irish hosted the 7-ranked Wolverines and provided ND with plenty to cheer about as ND cornerback Shane Walton intercepted a Michigan pass with just :21 left in the fourth quarter. The huge upset win put the Irish at 3-0 for the season (NOTE: they eventually ran their record that year to 8-0 before falling to Boston College at home in November).
