10 year old me watched this with my Dad and brother and next door neighbor on his "big" screen today (average sized by today's standards!).

I was on top of the world. Can't wait to have that feeling again (x100)!

Dad had been taking me to games since I was five or so but this was the first season I was fully geeked out of my own accord. Rudy came out like two weeks before this and by the time FSU came to South Bend I was essentially in the middle of an unending ecstatic mania. The morning of Nov. 13 I probably would have fluoresced under black light. Anyway dad was making nachos during pregame and that Rudy music comes on with Bob Costas' voiceover and I was vaguely aware that I was breathing too fast but was still surprised and confused to see a black spot open up in the middle of the TV set, and then another one off to right of the first, and then frankly a little scared as they grew and joined up and filled my vision completely and everything was black.

The next thing I saw was my dad standing over me where I was now laying on the floor, also scared but mostly hilarious, yelling at me that I had just passed out. Then Lee Becton did the thing and I'm pretty sure that's how the season ended. Go Irish.

So true. I really wonder why teams don't go under center and utilize a FB to run a wham block. Defenses wouldn't be ready for it.
Monkey see Monkey do in today's game....How many times must we see a 4th & 1 only for a QB to be in shotgun w/a RB lined up 5-6 yds deep and come up a yard short. Ridiculous
