This is week three of my series looking back on Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football’s “unclaimed” national championship years. Today I’m going to share an excerpt from the 1927 Notre Dame Football Review about Notre Dame’s game against the USC Trojans at Soldier Field, in Chicago, Illinois on November 26, 1927. The 1927 Irish squad finished the season with seven wins, one tie (Minnesota), and one loss (Army).
Notre Dame 7 - USC 6
The name of “Bucky” Dahman was inscribed in the annals of Notre Dame’s immortals at the close of the great intersectional game at Soldiers Field.
