Very few games I’m interested in besides those that include an ND win. Then if of the rose bowl with Texas and USC is a beauty.
I’d like to see what a fav from each decade beginning in the 60’s. So many to choose from. It will require some thought. Mine will all be against USC. Duh

1966 #1 ND 51 USC 0

Some not seen mentioned yet--

1989 USC at ND --
The Scott Kowalkowski Game including a great comeback

1989 ND at PSU --
An absolute mauling in on the ground, a quintessential Holtz coached game

1990 Miami at ND--
Last meeting between those era programs. Tons of talent on both sides, a Rocket kick return, and game winning screen play which Holtz purportedly drew up on a napkin during breakfast that morning

1990 ND at Tennessee --
Extremely hostile road environment against an extremely talented team which showcased the impact of having all-time great playmakers on your team like Rickey Watters and Rocket

Any of the Nebraska versus Florida team in a bowl from the 90s.

Any of the Tennessee vs Florida games from the mid to late 90s. Tons of offense with Wuerfel and Manning and both teams had great WRs

2012 Bama vs TA&M coming out party for Johnny Football and huge upset as that Bama had an all-timer type roster

2019 Bama vs LSU might have had the greatest collection of talent in a single college football game. Think set record for most 1st rounders playing in a game.
