[QUOTE="00Burdell, post: 91874, member: 5"] Notre Dame will play Navy every year as long as there is a football program at both schools. Its Notre Dame's way of expressing its appreciation to the Naval Academy for saving Notre Dame during WWII. In brief, during WWII, Notre Dame almost closed its doors due to enrollment decline caused by the war effort. Navy opened an operations/training center at ND which boosted enrollment high enough to allow ND to survive until the war ended. But for Navy, Notre Dame might have ended up a footnote in a couple of reference books.

Notre Dame fans and campus and game day experience are the finest you will find anywhere. [/QUOTE]
