One of my favorite YouTube channels is SB Nation. The way it delves into sports history with their various series such as Collapse and The Worst makes it a must for sports fans. Perhaps its best series is Deep Rewind, in which it gives extensive backgrounds on what led up to iconic moments. In its latest episode, Notre Dame gets the spotlight.
Think about where you were the night Arike Ogunbowale beat the buzzer against Mississippi State to win the 2018 national championship. She had just upset UConn in the semifinals with a similar shot two nights before, and all of a sudden, she was a last-second hero again. It was only surprising that she didn’t get struck by lightning later that night.
Take a look at why it seemed so unlikely the Irish found themselves in this position that season. Learn how this national game came down to one play. And reminisce about the joy you felt the moment this shot went in. As they say at the end of these videos, welcome to a moment in history.
