Irish Figure To Parley Win In Gator Into '77 Title Run
Notre Dame wrapped the 1976 season with a 20 to 9 Gator Bowl win over Penn State. Coach Dan Devine and players emphasized a strong return of 23 regulars as they eye a national championship run in 1977. Linebacker Steve Heimkreiter led a stifling defense, and Ross Browner called the win a moral booster for next year. Only replacements look to be quarterback Rick Slager and split end Dan Kelleher.
