This weekend, my daughter is getting married—and I’ve found myself reminiscing about the fall of 1999 when I was very pregnant with her. That September, life was changing in so many ways, but I still made it to one last Notre Dame game in person before she arrived. That game? The Eddie Robinson Classic against Kansas, played on August 28, 1999.
It was a wild one—Notre Dame scored 28 unanswered points to pull away in the second half, and I remember the electricity in the air inside Notre Dame Stadium. As I prepare for a new chapter in my daughter’s life, it feels only fitting to throw it back to that game this week.
