I have up for sale a Real 200% Authentic 1977 Notre Dame National Championship Players 10K Ring. Yes this could be your one and only chance to own a piece of College Football History. No other School in college football has won as many National Championships as Notre Dame. Notre Dame generally is considered to have earned 11 consensus national titles (1924-29-30-43-46-47-49-66-73-77-88) Notre Dame has also has had legendary coaches such as Knute Rockne, Frank Leahy, Ara Parseghian, Dan Devine and Lou Holtz.For the third time in nine years, Notre Dame opened the new calendar year in the Cotton Bowl against a No.1 team from Texas. The first time, on Jan.1, 1970, the Longhorns won 21-17 and clinched the national championship. A year later, the Irish returned to deny Texas a second straight title, winning 24-11. This time around on Jan.2, 1978, No.5 Notre Dame jumped out to a 24-10 lead in the first half and won easily 38-10. When the dust settled, the two teams had traded places and the Irish were national champs for the seventh time in the 42 years of the AP poll.Notre Dame was able to leapfrog the other three teams in front of it when the following happened on New Year's Day: No.2 Oklahoma lost the Orange Bowl to Arkansas, No.3 Alabama won the Sugar Bowl but against a lower ranked team (Ohio State), and No.4 Michigan lost the Rose Bowl (again).Two bold coaching moves also marked the season. Dan Devine of Notre Dame decided to put green jerseys on his team when Southern Cal came to South Bend on Oct.22. The switch worked as the Irish beat USC for the first time in four years. Lou Holtz of Arkansas made his move right before the Orange Bowl when he suspended three key players then went out and beat Oklahoma anyway, 31-6.Finally, Texas running back Earl Campbell won the Heisman, marking the trophy's return to the SWC after a 20-year absence.Notre Dame dominates the 1978 Cotton Bowl game, as they leapfrog from number five in the polls to become the National Champions after this impressive victory. Undefeated Texas enters the game ranked number one in the country, led by Heisman Trophy winner Earl Campbell. Notre Dame's two top rushers, Jerome Heavens and Vagas Ferguson, complement future NFL legend Joe Montana's passing game.Now you have an idea of what Notre Dame had gone through to win the 1977 National Championship so here is what a lucky person might have under his/her tree this Christmas Eve if you win this Fantastic auction.This 1977 Notre Dame National Championship 10K Ring was presented to and was once owned by an actual Player from this Legendary School and Championship Team.
