Under the Dome "The following day the Notre Dame football team was to play Iowa. What amazed me is that on Friday people actually expected us to play a football game the next day. I said, 'There will be no game.'" — Notre Dame President Emeritus Fr. Theodore Hesburgh in 1983 while recalling the events of November 1963 that led to the cancellation of a football game against Iowa when United States president John F. Kennedy was killed "Tuitt wasn't Tuitt for the first three games of the season as he dealt with the lingering affects from his offseason sports hernia surgery. Against three of the worst pass-protecting teams in the country (Temple 101 out of 123, Michigan 110 and Purdue 116), which also happen to be well below-average rushing teams, Tuitt had a total of four tackles and just one sack. "The Irish must find answers at inside linebacker and nose guard for 2014, and [injured junior linebacker] Jarrett Grace and [sophomore defensive lineman] Jarron Jones might evolve into those, but there is no apparent turn-key replacement on the horizon for what Tuitt brings to both run defense and the pass rush." — South Bend Tribune beat writer Eric Hansen on junior defensive end Stephon Tuitt and his effect on the 2014 Irish Tweet Of The Month ➤ @t_rees11: "Couldn't have asked for a better group of guys to share the last 4 years with @dpfoxy [Dan Fox] @thegob70 [Zack Martin] @cwatt66 [Chris Watt]" Notre Dame senior quarterback Tommy Rees ND WIN OVER U-M PANORAMIC PRINT Notre Dame Win Over Michigan • Sept. 22, 2012 at ND Stadium Availabled Unframed for $30 ea. + $12 S&H.
