Thanks to some pre-season bowl projections that are floating around, I have my mind on Notre Dame’s past involvement in some of the biggest bowl games. One such projection recently had Notre Dame going to the Fiesta Bowl to take on Oregon.
Notre Dame and Oregon don’t have much of a history together, something I’d like to one day see changed. Notre Dame does have a history in the Fiesta Bowl, however.
Yes, it is the bowl game that Notre Dame won to clinch the 1988 national championship with a victory over West Virginia.
No, nothing has gone well for Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl since.
