Twitter Chatter: Notre Dame-Michigan memories
IRISH STEW
In the wake of Thursday's announcement that the Notre Dame-Michigan football series will resume in 2018, we asked Notre Dame fans on Twitter two questions:
1. What do you think about the series' rebirth, and
2. What is your favorite Notre Dame-Michigan memory?
Needless to say, Irish fans responded. Here's what they had to say.
@mikevorel : Go and Rocket return in the big House
— Olivier Daoust (@OliDaoust) July 7, 2016
Yes. And ND beating Michigan in 1999. https://t.co/KKw8Wg3tVp

@mikevorel Meh, I don't have a strong feeling either way. More in favor than against. Fave was Rocket's 2 return TDs. Easily.

Pick-six to preserve a shut out that gets called back because of a shot on the quarterback pretty much has to be it. https://t.co/5TW180zZte

@mikevorel great it's back. I was at 125th night game, Manti's INT was awesome, stadium loudest I have heard it
— Kameron Spivey (@kameron_spivey) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel awesome and probably the Manti Te'o game to be honest, even though it turned out the way it did.. (And obviously 2014 shutout)

@mikevorel happy, and Reggie Ho's big day
— Ara Rainey (@mos16) July 7, 2016
Like it, but wish the '18 schedule wasn't so tough. Fav memory was the Pick6 by Shu that didn't count rubbing it in https://t.co/VCyqyiGQZh

Bo kept kicking to Rocket https://t.co/8x7AcXs0g0

@mikevorel I'm only excited for it if they bring Eminem in for half time interviews.
— Jeff Welty (@DubbDubbs) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel like it and Jarious Jackson leading us to the win in 98! I also love this game an awful lot pic.twitter.com/TiJWIFbHhm

@mikevorel playing December '63 on the field after 2012 was pretty sublime
— MPK (@citizenkane92) July 7, 2016
Great for both programs, consistent CFB contenders for years + Kelly vs Harbaugh element = huge ratings. Rocket '89. https://t.co/GUC1amPJ3T
— Ed Heavy (@ImEdHeavy) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel awesome, huge rivalry for Midwest ND fans and a great national September game. Rocket running back the kick returns.
— IrishFan2016 (@NDirish57) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel I can do without them. It's like watching a couple get back together when you were relieved they had broken up. ('90 comeback.)
— Matt Ryan (@sagcat) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel happy it's renewed, but we get Harbaugh now. The shutout was awesome, but smothering Denard Robinson in 2012 was amazing!
— Brian Pennacchio (@brianp05) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel great rivalry and nothing better then beating meat chicken! Rocket best memory
— Johnny Wilds (@JohnnyWBoxing) July 7, 2016
Think UM@ND was 1st ND game I went to way back when. Also, was on field for '02 game @ ND for student mgrs. https://t.co/RPg4rPFYmB
— Brent (@bhaydon5) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel yes, and in my life time definitely the 37-0 win
— E Noll (@Evan_Noll52) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel meh. favorite memory: when Michigan's official Twitter tweeted out this pic with the (in)correct score pic.twitter.com/UZe0gDZjHk
— Isaac Garcia (@eyegar) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel my very first game as a student, "dethroning the champs", in Sept 1998.
— Sarah Ordish (@sordish) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel 1943 when Michigan took their ball and didn't come out and play for 30+ years.
— Chad (@ChadSpringer) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel 1st home game as a student, night game, #1 ND wins 28-24. I thought we'd never lose in my 4 years after that!!!
— Bryan Sharpe (@irisharpe) July 7, 2016
@mikevorel first game ever under lights at ND stadium thanks to @MuscoLighting sat top row of corner end zone. Never forget it.
