University Of Notre Dame - Fighting Irish - Collector´s Edition

From coast to coast and generation to generation, the proud tradition of Notre Dame Football has been built by celebrated players and historic performances. See it all in this one-of-a-kind Notre Dame DVD collector’s set from A&E and THE HISTORY CHANNEL.

This one-of-a-kind collection of classic Notre Dame Football games honors the unforgettable heroes who have burnished the shine of this great University. While the glorious victories in this collection are punctuated by stellar college football names--Montana, Holtz, Parseghian, Bettis, Devine, Browner, Ishmael, Holtz, Golic--it is the full team, the deep squads of student-athletes and overachievers, along with the student body and its ever-faithful fans, that assure that "Old Notre Dame will win over all."

The University of Notre Dame: Fighting Irish DVD Collector’s Set includes the following games:

VOL 1: 1977 "THE GREEN JERSEY GAME" vs. USC (49-19): When the Irish charged the field to meet the USC Trojans clad for the first time in green jerseys, tradition was turned aside. Add in a student-built Trojan Horse and four Joe Montana touchdowns, and a Notre Dame classic was born.

VOL 2: 1978 COTTON BOWL vs. TEXAS (38-10): Notre Dame’s commanding performance behind Joe Montana, Jerome Heavens, and Vagas Ferguson propelled the team from number five in the polls to national champions after this impressive victory.

VOL 3: 1979 COTTON BOWL vs. HOUSTON (35-34): Joe Montana’s legend was born as he rallied the Irish in below zero wind chill weather to one of college football’s most memorable comebacks.

VOL 4: 1988 REGULAR SEASON GAME vs. MIAMI (31-30): Miami started the game with a 36-game regular season winning streak and a menacing defense. The Notre Dame defense ended the game by forcing seven turnovers, preventing a game-winning two-point play, and securing a stunning victory.

VOL 5: 1989 FIESTA BOWL vs. WEST VIRGINIA (34-21): Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz used the press to solidify the belief that the Irish had their hands full with the mighty West Virginia defense. But it was Notre Dame that supplied the winning defense while Irish quarterback Tony Rice went on to pass for more than 200 yards and two touchdowns.

VOL 6: 1992 "THE SNOW BOWL" vs. PENN STATE (17-16): In their last home game, three seniors led a brilliant Irish comeback in the swirling snow of Notre Dame Stadium. With 20 seconds on the clock, Rich Mirer’s touchdown pass to Jerome Bettis set up the winning two-point conversion from Mirer to Reggie Brooks.

VOL 7: 1993 REGULAR SEASON GAME vs. FLORIDA STATE (31-24): After #1 ranked Florida State scored early, the Irish then pounded the Seminoles vaunted defense for 239 rushing yards and four touchdowns. The stout Notre Dame defense held tight to preserve victory and end Florida State’s 16-game winning streak.

VOL 8: BONUS: 1966 REGULAR SEASON GAME vs. MICHIGAN STATE (10-10) COMPLETE SECOND HALF: The #1 ranked Irish traveled to play the #2 ranked Michigan State Spartans in a game for the ages. Punctuated by a tactical decision by Notre Dame’s Ara Parseghian, the game and his strategy remain much-discussed and deliberated as the teams played to a 10-10 stalemate.
