We continue our 2016 Miami Hurricanes Schedule Preview series with a look at a former rival: Notre Dame
Alonzo Highsmith leaped jumped high in the air in elation, almost as if he could’ve jumped out of the stadium. He had just silenced a subdued partisan crowd – and that god-awful leprechaun – inside Notre Dame Stadium with his fourth touchdown of the game, as Miami would go on to rout the Irish 31-13 on October 6, 1984.
Folks, that’s the first and only win at Notre Dame Stadium in Miami’s history.
And what a rivalry it became, coincidental with Miami’s rise to power in the 1980s.
