This year will mark 100 years since the game that gave birth to the famed Four Horsemen moniker took place. This is cause for celebration, so why not do it during the annual Shamrock Series?
Notre Dame and Army, the teams involved in the Four Horsemen game, will face each other Nov. 23 in New York, the city where the game took place. The Shamrock Series is returning to Yankee Stadium for the third time, and it’s the third time the Irish will face the Knights in the annual off-site home game. These teams also met at Yankee Stadium in the 2010 game.
It would be surprising if the buildup for this game didn’t feature many references to the Four Horsemen. They played a big part in making Notre Dame the legendary program it’s been for much of its history. The least they can do is do those gentlemen homage as part of the hype machine.
