For almost as long as football has been played, the town of South Bend, Indiana, has housed the most storied collegiate program in America.
Notre Dame's exalted place at the pinnacle of greatness is well earned. No other team in college football history can claim more consensus national championships (eleven), Heisman Trophy winners (seven), All-Americans, and College Hall of Famers than the Fighting Irish. From quarterback Frank Carideo to Rocket Ismail and from fabled coaches Knute Rockne and Ara Parseghian to Lou Holtz and Charlie Weiss, no university in the land rivals the magic and mystique of the Golden Domers.
Fighting Irish Madness is the story of Notre Dame football—the legendary players, the eleven championship teams, the explosive rivalry with Southern Cal, the all-time Notre Dame team, and the rosters from each national championship team. All of it is told by the players themselves, the coaches, opponents, fans, and members of the media.
