(Second of a series)
EDITOR'S NOTE: For the past few years, Texas and Notre Dame have jockeyed back and forth as the second and third winningest Division I college football programs in America. The series between the two teams began over 100 years ago, and while the meetings have been infrequent, they have been unique. None more so, however, than the Longhorns' first trip to South Bend in 1934. It came at a time when the country was coming out of a world war and was in the midst of the Great Depression. And it thrust Texas onto the national college football scene in a big way.
