1924 Notre ... I mean Vanderbilt

Sorry I couldn't post yesterday, something came up and distracted me. But I had planned to post this picture specifically, because on October 18, 1924, Grantland Rice penned the most famous passage in sports journalism: “Outlined against a blue, gray October sky the Four Horsemen rode again. In dramatic lore they are known as famine, pestilence, destruction and death. These are only aliases. Their real names are: Stuhldreher, Miller, Crowley and Layden …

So where did Rice go to school? Vanderbilt.

Anyway, Notre Dame went 10-0 and outscored the opposition 285-57. Photo courtesy of the University of Notre Dame.
