Fox News
Notre Dame beat Army in the "Win one for the Gipper" game before 85,000 spectators at Yankee Stadium on Nov. 10, 1928, inspired by the memory of late football star George Gipp.
The struggling 1928 Notre Dame squad, newly dubbed the Fighting Irish a year earlier, scored two second-half touchdowns to come from behind and stun the powerful Cadets, 12-6. "George Gipp was a man I had always admired." — Ronald Reagan Kerry J. Byrne is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
"Rockne was trying to salvage something from his worst season as a coach at Notre Dame," the University of Notre Dame archives note.
