Looking back on the 1979 Cotton Bowl, when Joe Montana fought of the flu by eating chicken soup in the locker room to lead Notre Dame Football to victory.
Today, Joe Montana is remembered as one of the best quarterbacks to ever play in the NFL. It’s because of that NFL career that his time as the quarterback of this Notre Dame Football program is often overlooked, but he did have a great career in South Bend.
