Lou Holtz deserves zero respect. Dude knew about soooooo much abuse over his career and said nothing. He also disrespected every school he ever had a job with, except Notre Dame.
People who give Lou Holtz shit for his ESPN commentary don't know how ridiculously great a coach he was. He was about as clutch a CFB coach as there was. He wrote the book on mental preparation. He knew how to consistently get his players ready to run through a brick wall.
The dude was a POS that covered up sooooo much abuse and crime, just in order to remain a coach. Plus, he lied and disrespected every school he ever worked with before getting to Notre Dame. The guy will be burning in Hell when he passes! Seriously, he knew about what was happening with his best buddy Paterno up at Penn State and remained silent.
Rally Sons of Notre Dame!!! Best College Football game I have seen in past 30 years. Had it all from pregame brawl in tunnel to 2 point attempt at end. Epic and Memorable!
He also remained silent the entire time about the abuse at Penn State where his best buddy coached. Dude covered up soooo much crime and abuse just for his own job. He was a lousy person too! Every job before Notre Dame he’d make promises, sign contracts, and in the middle of the night move away. Guy was a coward, through and through.
When a pep talk from 1988 can bring a guy to emotions over 30 years later. You know it’s powerful. Lou one of the great big game coaches in history. NC State, Arkansas, ND and even taking 1999 0-11 South Carolina, and beating Ohio State in back to back New Years Day Bowls in 2000 and 2001.
i like how lou holtz handled it. You love this game because it feels bigger than the players. like two forces who fundamentally don't like eachother. People might not understand because they don't understand the U and the fact that idealistically these schools are the perfect opponents for one another. ND vs Mich/USC/Ohio St. is like pretentious country club "a great afternoon for football" type football. This game is like no holds barred. At least thats how it feels to me.
Just the best. Lifelong ND fan (75 years) who was there on the 20 yard line, ND side, near South end zone. Best game I have ever been to. Irish National Champs again.
If Miami would have won this game like they were supposed to Miami would have won three straight national championships Miami was a true power house at the time & Jimmy Johnson was a master motivater & a great coach
Irish fan since 1968. Love'em. Win or lose, love'em. When these players talk, after the fact, about they were so confident they were going to win, nobody should take that seriously. At the end of that game, if Jimmy Johnson had opted to kick an extra point instead of going for two, and if that kick had been successful, this game would have ended in a tie. Miami would have remained in first place in the polls and would have gone on to win their second consecutive national championship. It's easy to say after the game is over that we just knew we were going to win. But the Irish got very, VERY lucky on this one. The infamous "fumble" at the one yard line? Nobody thinks that Miami player fumbled that ball. You can't even find a Notre Dame fan who'll look you in the eye and claim that was a real fumble. That along with Johnson's 2-pt conversion attempt is what beat Miami....not Notre Dame.
ND won the LOS on both sides of the ball. Loved seeing Notre Dame knock Miami off the ball running the football. The U didn't like it when someone ran it down their throat.
Yeah and they blew one that screwed ND. I can’t Remember the player for Miami, but he caught a pass for a TD and dropped it, but it still was a TD? Watch this 30 for 30 all the way through and you’ll see it
Gotta admit, I loved seeing Miami thump Notre Dame for those few years. Notre Dame had beat up on teams for decades and they got a taste of their own medicine.
Not a particular fan of either team. Not a particular fan of Coach Holtz for that matter, more for his broadcasting career. Do think he was a great coach though. Anyway, I know if my coach would have told my team when I played what Coach Holtz told the Irish before that game, we would have gone out and tried to run through an oncoming 18-wheeler on the interstate for him. I get misty thinkin about it. Great stuff.
Dam so he got kicked off the basketball team and returned all the money? I would have kept the money and transfered if I knew I was getting kicked off the basketball team. Did he at least get to stay in school at Notre Dame?
I'm a ND fan and I never felt that way in any way, shape, or form. The ND team that year? With the talent they had and led by Lou Holtz? NOBODY would have "killed" that team. Nobody.
@@conorcane1211 I am aware who ended that streak, i was at the game, you are impressed with teams that end long winning streaks, ND snapped the longest in hoops and on the gridiron, here endeth the lesson
@Gubba Bump you know and I know that td. That was ruled a fumble, shouldn’t had been ruled a fumble. Common, brother. Thank God for replay now. That caused us another championship. Not to take anything away from Notre Dame
One of the greatest marketing ploys in college football history. The other one was the hate for Brian Bozworth and all the shirts and other stuff made about him, AND IT WAS BOZWORTH HIMSELF THAT WAS BEHIND IT ALL THAT COPYRIGHTED/TRADEMARKED EVERYTHING AND HE MADE ALL THE MONEY HIMSELF.
Reminds me of my friend Volume Schizophrenic, who used to scour the parking lot of the 24 hour pool hall I used to hang out at, looking for marijuana cigarettes roaches to smoke... “Lights out... Game over”...
I don't know why but when Pat Eilers started talking about Lou Holtz saying, "...save Jimmy Johnon's ass for me." I started tearing up.
watching stoic people show emotion always has that effect. felt the same way.
4th string tb scored that day he didn't win like Saban does but he set the bar high they were there for 5 or 6 years with a chance to win the NC
Me too.
I never liked Notre Dame, but I gotta respect what Lou Holtz said. Classic shit.

@@danielpenrodii2389 What abuse?

Yeah he’s a goat would sure as hell love him to be my coach
Either coach. Jimmy or Lou. Would be so sweet

the game happened 33 years ago?
Racist concept
CFB will never be like this again.
Lou was a special coach. Recruiting was great and development was great. But motivation was the key.
He also remained silent the entire time about the abuse at Penn State where his best buddy coached. Dude covered up soooo much crime and abuse just for his own job. He was a lousy person too! Every job before Notre Dame he’d make promises, sign contracts, and in the middle of the night move away. Guy was a coward, through and through.
Ran up the score every chance he got same as every other ND coach

Lou Holtz the master motivator.
Wish I coulda been they're for that Lou holtz speech
I was at that game. We bought our Tee Shirts from Joe Fredericks in his dorm room. (That night was Gibson's World Series home run off Eckersley.)
I understand ND not letting Miami run thru them but cmon I got $100 on jimmy Johnson kicking lou Holtz ass
Nice help from the officials with the phantom Cleveland Gary fumble!
They helped Miami with a trapped then dropped pass “TD” later on in the game
@@patrickthomas8890lies
Notre Dame & Lou Holtz....yea!

All great points-but Miami got a break as well from the officials on their last TD--(would not be ruled a catch today under a review.)

Convenient editing, came down to a 2pt conversion. They didnt run anything down their throat
@@willcortez5 Watch the game on you tube, play by play, and you decide who won the LOS.
Lou Holtz is Terrific!! What a line!! GO IRISH!!
Get a life bozo
Was a game like no other!
"Game over. *Game over.*"
Favorite part of the documentary. I love the way Pat Eilers composes himself before he reiterates: “game over.”
One of my dads friends played in this game man he loved it miami loved playing dirty against notre dame in that time lol
And funny refs came out and said they blew a call screwing over Miami
Cry more.
Yeah and they blew one that screwed ND. I can’t Remember the player for Miami, but he caught a pass for a TD and dropped it, but it still was a TD? Watch this 30 for 30 all the way through and you’ll see it

"Game over. Game over" (c'mon refs, bail us out here ...)
Good thing there was no replay or ND loses.
Good game though. Classic shit.
Now which team was the convicts? There were plenty of convicts on both sidelines
It was a reference to the two players from Miami who were charged on a carjacking. That’s all.
Miami got a big W too
The U for life. 1980's when The U was great.
I can't stand Notre Dame or Ohio State
Dam so he got kicked off the basketball team and returned all the money? I would have kept the money and transfered if I knew I was getting kicked off the basketball team. Did he at least get to stay in school at Notre Dame?
Cleveland Gary fumble??
Game over Game over Game over
Funny Notre dame fans know if we had rematched at the end of the year we would have killed them 💯
Miami actually won the game..... bad call by the refs at the end
@@rahil190 did you watch this 30 for 30? How about that call that gave you the chance for two points?

Ole Lou! Lol
Sounds like they knew the "fix" was on 🤔🤔
game over?
Miami got screwed. Cleveland Gary was down
Miami sucks and you probably weren't even alive gtfo
Notre Lame swallows....tfoh
Miami lost final
The bullshit Cleveland Gary fumble
Game over my ass. More like "Refs in our pockets".
John Jones don’t worry we got something for that ass. Canes is coming
....they were done before it started
OK bud
Go Irish.
Miami committed 6 turnovers and Notre Dame still only one by a point..lucky!!
Winning the lottery is luck, ND won 22 straight games, no luck involved and fyi it's won by a point, not one by a point

ND trying to be tough lmao. A joke.
The refree won the game.
They were tough at this time. From 1988-1993 they were dominate. In 1988 they beat teams that finished the season ranked 2, 4, 5 and 7 in the AP.
You only see what you want to see, the dropped TD catch by Miami at the end, Bull shit
Don’t curse
lol won by a blown call. ND couldnt beat the U and they know it
I dont believe Eilers. Plus "game over", ND won the game based on a series of plays late in the fourth quarter. Good story though.
Another rim job by the refs.
That was the biggest fix job ever. Norte Dame got charity from the refs
@Gubba Bump you know and I know that td. That was ruled a fumble, shouldn’t had been ruled a fumble. Common, brother. Thank God for replay now. That caused us another championship. Not to take anything away from Notre Dame
