SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Brian Kelly opened his Notre Dame coaching career with a home victory against Purdue in 2010, and on Saturday he matched Knute Rockne for the most victories in school history with another win over the Boilermakers.
The No. 12 Fighting Irish's 27-13 win over Purdue was Kelly's 105th victory at the school, which matched Rockne's victory total from 1918 to 1930.
There is a caveat, however, as the NCAA ordered the Irish to vacate 21 victories from the 2012 and 2013 seasons as part of sanctions related to academic misconduct.
