Editorial Reviews

If you want to learn about college football, there is no better place to begin than South Bend, Indiana. No school can rival the record of the University of Notre Dame: The Fighting Irish have garnered more consensus national championships (11), more All-American honors, and more College Hall of Famer selections than any other team. In addition, the school boasts seven Heisman Trophy winners, equaled only by archrival USC. Fighting Irish Madness recaptures the glory of Notre Dame football through the words of players, coaches, opponents, fans, and journalists.
