It is going to be an epic battle between two teams that have only met twice prior to this game with the Irish prevailing in both games. We are here to celebrate the continuation of this series and a third victory by our Irish. I am a life-long Texan and Domer… I was blessed to be able to attend the 1970 and 1971 games with my father, a proud member of the class of 1950. I also attended the 1978 and 1979 games with my classmates and the 1988 game with my family, including my son who is a member of the class of 2007. I am thrilled to welcome the IRISH nation back to North Texas! It is my honor to represent all of you as the president of the Notre Dame Alumni Association Board of Directors. Our duty as a board is to represent Notre Dame alumni in communicating with the University administration and setting policy for the Alumni Association. The board has 29 directors and a president. Our duty as an association is to engage alumni, family and friends with our University through our 270 worldwide clubs, classes, and affinity & constituency groups. We are here to help you, please do not hesitate to contact us if we can help or answer questions. While you are with us, I hope y’all get a chance to participate in all the
