Sports are still on hold in 2020, so we hop back into the time machine and breakdown the 1989 rivalry game where the #9 ranked USC Trojans go to South Bend to face the #1 ranked Notre Dame Fighting Irish. This was a back and forth battle between two very good teams. After a pregame brawl, the Trojans jumped out to an early lead, but Notre Dame fought back and eventually won in a very exciting 4^th quarter. This game featured legends like Rocket Ismail, Junior Seau and Coach Lou Holtz. In addition to those all time greats there were numerous other stars like Tony Rice, Todd Marinovich, Todd Lyght, John Jackson, Chris Zorich and Mark Carrier. We highlight all the big plays, list some underrated moments, talk about players forgotten in time who we loved and hated, try to describe football in 1989, and hand out a game MVP award. Enjoy. Here is a link to the game.
