Worst Loss in ND History

Does this loss go down as the worst? UConn loss was bad along with the Cuse loss in the snowball game.

In terms of talent differential, probably. Although, the losses to Navy might be worse.

the talent difference is worse with Navy; but their discipline and running offense makes up for it to a great extent.
BUT as regards losing to a team with no rational excuse at all, this one is right there. The Marshall loss is the only one I would really compare it with

Yep. Navy bigger underdog in point spread?

Uconn or Cuse ( players hit with snowballs)?

Air Force running us over with one star talent in Chuck Weis’s nadir ranks up there as far as losses when having a massive talent differential is concerned since they actually blew us out.

Notre Dame was a -8000 favorite today ; -8000 favorites never lose—this is an all-time embarrassment.
