As we gear up for this week’s College Football Playoff semi-final showdown against Penn State, it’s impossible not to reflect on one of the most iconic matchups in Notre Dame football history: the 1992 “Snow Bowl.” That frigid November day, with snowflakes swirling around Notre Dame Stadium, provided the perfect backdrop for a dramatic battle between two storied programs. It was a game of redemption for the Irish seniors, including quarterback Rick Mirer and running back Reggie Brooks, who delivered a thrilling 17-16 victory in their final home appearance. This Throwback Thursday, we look back at that unforgettable game and how its grit, determination, and triumph resonate as the Irish prepare to take on the Nittany Lions once again, this time on the grand stage of the playoffs.
