Despite the recent flag planting shenanigans, ND and MSU do have quite a storied history. According to some we may have even put the Spartans program on the map (we did). This year’s matchup marks the 40th anniversary of the “Game of the Century” where #1 Notre Dame faced #2 Michigan State and the game ended in a 10-10 draw (I know I know, a tie…but we did go onto unload on USC and win the NC). To commemorate the 1966 matchup both teams will be wearing special patches in Saturday’s game…MSU has also declared the Beatles will be bigger than Jesus for a day.
Thanks to the magic of YouTube we have seven clips from that infamous game:
