Love scores 3 TDs, No. 6 Notre Dame hands No. 18 Army 1st loss with 49-14 romp at Yankee Stadium

Associated Press  

NEW YORK — Notre Dame’s tribute game to its “Four Horsemen” turned into a pretty good one-man show by Jeremiyah Love. “It’s almost like he’s anticipating what the defense is going to do and when he breaks through that second level, I don’t see many people that can catch him,” Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman said of Love, who had a 76-yard TD run last weekend against Virginia. “They’re a great team.” Notre Dame beat Army for the 16th straight time in the first matchup where both teams were ranked since 1958, the Black Knights’ last victory. This meeting was scheduled to honor the 100th anniversary of Notre Dame’s 1924 victory in New York at the Polo Grounds, when Grantland Rice began his story about the exploits of Harry Stuhldreher, Jim Crowley, Don Miller and Elmer Layden with one of the most famous openings in history, writing: “Outlined against a blue-gray October sky, the Four Horsemen rode again.” That quote lined the wall above Monument Park in the stadium’s outfield, behind the end zone where Notre Dame took a 14-0 lead on TD passes by Leonard on its first two possessions.
