Major Bowl wins

Clearly they don't matter to you, because as a BIG fan during the Ara time, we didn't start playing in bowls until later in his tenure.

But let's define major bowl wins

BK - 0 (and that includes all of his previous coaching jobs. He's never won a major bowl game. Moreover, he's never even been competitive in one).

Lou

88 Fiesta - W (National Championship)
89 Orange - W
91 Sugar - W
92 Cotton - W
93 Cotton - W

During Holtz's time in South Bend, we played in 9 major bowl games, going 5-4.

Before ND Holtz won the following
77 Orange (Arkansas) - W (which also allowed ND to win a national title).

Please never mention BK in comparison to Holtz, ever again. In the words of Nina Simone's family

"Cool story but please take Lou's name out your mouth. For the rest of your life."
