25 unbreakable Notre Dame football records

How does a head coach let a quarterback get to seven interceptions in a single game?

Earlier this week LeBron James became the NBA’s leading scorer, passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the record that had stood for more than 30 years.  Although I wouldn’t quite put it with Joe DiMaggio’s 56-game hitting streak or Cal Ripken, Jr.’s consecutive games started streaks in terms of unbreakability, I have a hard time believing I’ll see someone else pass LeBron’s mark while I’m still on earth.

That got me thinking about what Notre Dame’s most unbreakable football records are.  So I did what every 37-year-old male does when they’re too awake to go to bed.

I sifted through the most recent Notre Dame football media guide and came up with 25 records I’m betting I never see broken for one reason or another.  Here are 25 of the most incredible marks in Notre Dame football history — ones that certainly will not be broken anytime soon.

Notre Dame might not be known as “Running Back U” but that doesn’t mean the Fighting Irish haven’t had their fair share of elite runners over the years.  And those elite runners have had some pretty elite performances, but which Notre Dame running backs had the biggest days of all-time?

We’ve previously looked at the single game passing records for Notre Dame quarterbacks and found that throwing for a ton of yards often doesn’t mean good things for the team.  How does that compare to running the ball extremely well on a given Saturday?
