The spread looked impressive- es­ pecially for a Sunday morning - on white tablecloths in the lobby area of the Notre Dame football offices. It was all part of a little celebration Gerry Faust had planned. "I told our coaches if we beat Pitt, I'd have a steak dinner for them," said Faust, a bit sheepish yet still a bit giddy from the heady triumph in Pitt Stadium. So, a little after eleven o'clock that morning - amidst the film sessions and interviews and preparations for Penn State the following week - the Irish staff enjoyed a gourmet brunch while savoring for a few more minutes the delicious upset of the top-ranked Pan­ thers. · As Faust freely admitted, "I wouldn't mind doing this every week if things ~­ would go the way they did yesterday." ~ But, things didn't go at all like that the rest of November. Quarterback \ Blair Kiel had bruised a shoulder while skidding out of bounds against Pitt, and he ended up missing the next two games. Even though he returned to duty in the finale at USC, Notre Dame would end up losing its last three games after winning its first four. It was a back-to-reality thud for a campaign that began with the assertiveness of a con­ vincing victory over Michigan. Nevertheless, that domination of the Wolverines- followed up by a scin­ tillating, last-second triumph over Miami plus the win at Pitt - proved to be the fruit of the football vine that was miss­ ing from Faust's freshman year diet. "That's why the Michigan game meant so much to the team and to me," Faust said. "We hadn't won a big game that first year over a great team. Those are the kind of games Notre Dame had ·'·x.,· ~, t· ~· become famous for over the years, the ' .~ - kind of games the fans remember.

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn SEATTLE SEAHAWKS Team History When the Seattle Seahawks took the field for the first time in the 1976 season, it marked the culmination of a quest for a National Football League franchise that had its roots in the Pacific Northwest metropolis as early as 1957. That is when discussion first began about the possibilities of constructing a domed stadium that would assure a major league sports franchise for the city. On June 4, 1974, the NFL awarded its 28th franchise to Seattle to play in the 64,984-seat Kingdome. A civic suggestion campaign netted 20,365 entries and 1,741 different names, but “Seahawks” was selected and announced on June 17, 1975. Just a little more than two months later, after a 27-day sale, the season ticket campaign was shut off with 59,000 tickets sold. On January 3, 1976, Jack Patera, who had been a Minnesota assistant coach, was named the team’s first head coach. The Seahawks finished 2-12 in 1976, when they played in the NFC, and 5-9 in 1977, when they moved into the AFC. The Seahawks had winning 9-7 records in both 1978 and 1979 and Patera was named NFL Coach of the Year the second year. The strike-shortened 1982 season proved to be a transitional year for all of pro football, but no club fit the transitional description better than the Seahawks. Patera was removed after six-plus years as head coach. Mike McCormack finished the season as interim head coach and then was replaced in 1983 by Chuck Knox, who guided the Seahawks to an 83-67-0 record in nine seasons up through the 1991 campaign.
