University of Notre Dame Fighting Irish - Collector's Edition (College Football's Greatest Games)
T**T
Great Product
8 games on 8 individual discs in 8 slimline cases(with each case containing a bevy of information like the game time temp, rosters, attendance numbers, etc) housed in a box cover as seen in the pic. They really tried to make a quality product and it shows. Great if you're a Notre Dame fan or want to see some classic games in general. Picture quality is generally good but varies from game to game as expected, but it's great just for the nostalgia factor. Plus, it's fun seeing who was in the top 25 back then as the sports ticker update will show up from time to time during the games. And at under $60, it is a good bargain. I bought the USC vs Texas, Notre Dame vs W.V.(which this box set includes), and LSU vs OU nat'l championship games for an average cost of $19 each as an example. Overall, highly recommended to Irish fans and college football fans with a sense of history.

Perfect for that Noter Dame fan
Hi, my husband is a huge Notre Dame fan. He grew up watching the games and then went to school there. The sun shines and sets on the golden dome for him. So, I got this for him for Christmas and he loves it. However, I also think anyone who is interested in the history of football or football in general would like this. I've enjoyed watching the classic games with him. It's weird to watch football in 1966 - it looked almost like a different game. Then by 1978 they are passing the ball more, and they looked more like football players instead of rugby players with big rear ends. This is just down right good tv.

Outstanding football dvd set.
This is a wonderfully produced dvd set. A&E did a great job. I have never seen this kind of detail put into any college football dvd that I have ever purchased. The case for each dvd is plastered with facts, rosters, quotes, etc. (even temp at game time)about each game. Some of the Irish's best games are included and I'm thankful that the Lou Holtz era is well represented. I do not have the budget to collect many football dvd's so price is a concern, making me doubly blessed with this set at this sale price. Any one of these games is worth the sale price for the entire set. I'm impressed.

Dad loves it!
My dad is a Notre Dame alumni and actually went to a couple of these games. He really enjoys reliving those times of his college days. It's also interesting to watch football before the days of the "Yellow Line" and seemingly endless camera angles.Anyway, my dad tends to watch these when he's flying to and from job sites or in a hotel room without an internet connection. I got them for him about 3 months ago as a Christmas present and he just finished the entire set.I always enjoyed hearing his stories of these games, so it's really nice being able to give something back that means just as much to him.

Fun gift for football fan
I bought this DVD set as a Christmas gift for my son who plays college football and has been a Notre Dame fan his whole life. He was anticipating taking it back to school and watching with his teammates. We watched one game together at home and the quality was good. Price is reasonable for the amount of DVDs and the quality. It was fun for him to watch "old school" games!

Great Collection
This DVD set takes the viewer through 40 years of Notre Dame football. With games ranging from the 1979 Cotton Bowl to the Penn State game in 1992, the set will wake up the echoes of Fighting Irish football - especially for those who haven't experienced it before or are looking to revisit the thrilling days of yesteryear. A good set, and very reasonable.

Diehards will love it
I bought this for my brother in law for Xmas, and it's definitely the most successful present I've ever given him. He particularly commented on the clarity of pictures for each game ("like being there") and loved that it was the whole game, not just the highlights. A winner for die hard fans out there!
