不同的是胜者是在主场。
1974, Notre Dame @ USC, 24-55，USC在17分钟内得了55分。
In one of the most notable comebacks in college football history, the 1974
Trojans erased a 24-point deficit
to beat defending national champion Notre Dame, 55-24, in the Coliseum.
The Irish jumped out to a 24-0 lead, but with 10 seconds remaining before
halftime, Anthony Davis scored on
a 7-yard pass from Pat Haden.
At the start of second half, Davis took the opening kickoff of and raced 102
yards for a score, opening the
floodgates as USC rallied for 35 points in the third quarter. Davis scored 2
more touchdowns that quarter, and
Haden threw two TD passes to Johnny McKay, the head coach's son. In the
fourth quarter, Haden connected
with Shelton Diggs for a touchdown and Charles Phillips returned an
interception 58 yards for a touchdown.
After the game, the Rev. Theodore Martin Hesburgh, the then-president of the
university, said to Trojan coach
John McKay, "That wasn't very nice." McKay, an Irish Catholic known for his
quick wit, replied, "That's what you
get for hiring a Presbyterian! (referring to Parseghian's faith)" A few
weeks later, Ara Parseghian announced his
resignation, and the Irish gave him a fitting farewell present with an
emotional 13-11 win over Alabama and
Bear Bryant in the Orange Bowl. |
