During an appearance on The Big College Football Show with former Notre Dame wide receiver Tim Brown, the former Ohio State running back and current Tennessee State head coach told Brown and the audience: I had to remind myself of the iconic moment of the Buckeyes’ win over the Irish. 1995.
The photo behind George is from his 61-yard run in the fourth quarter of the game. A few minutes later, George hit the ball into the end zone for one of his two touchdowns in the contest. Ohio State defeated Notre Dame 45-26 in Columbus, with the final box score totaling 32 carries for 207 yards and two scores.
