Under the Dome those two scores, Montana also sneaks for a one-yard score. Meanwhile, with 120 yards rushing in the game, senior fullback Jerome Heavens eclipses George Gipp's 58-year career rushing mark of 2,341 yards. 25 Years Ago: Oct. 15, 1988 In what is considered the greatest game in Notre Dame Stadium's history, the No. 4-ranked Fighting Irish upset No. 1 Miami, 31-30. Free safety Pat Terrell deflects the Hurricanes' two-point conversion attempt with 45 seconds left, and fullback Anthony Johnson pounces on the onside kick to end Miami's 36-game regular season winning streak, the second longest in college football since 1914 (the longest, 47 games by Oklahoma, also was snapped by Notre Dame, in 1957). Tony Rice completes 8 of 16 passes for 195 yards and also runs for a score to give Notre Dame an early 7-0 lead. Rush backer Frank Stams leads a defensive effort that produces seven turnovers. Stams forces two fumbles on sacks of quarterback Steve Walsh, and he tips another pass that Terrell returns for a touchdown and a 21-7 lead. After losing their four previous games to Miami 133-20, the Irish make the cover of Sports Illustrated with the headline "Notre Dame Is Back." — Lou Somogyi Want to stay up-to-date with all the Irish news?
