Notre Dame 21 Navy 23







Everything about Saturday's Notre Dame - Navy game at Notre Dame stadium was wonderful, except the final score. The day was cloudless and warm -- an unbelievable 70 degrees on November 7. The campus was beautiful, the atmosphere was festive. The quads were filled with the smells of grilling hamburgers and brats from various student concession stands. Leaves rustled underfoot. The strains of the marching band's music could be heard in the distance. The day was full of traditions -- the players' walk from the basilica to the stadium; the band marching from the administration building to the stadium. The stadium was beautiful and filled to capacity. It was certainly a day to remember and I enjoyed it all, despite the score.
