Description: 1940 ticket from 10/12/1940 between the GT Yellow Jackets and the Irish played at Notre Dame Stadium. The Irish defeated Georgia Tech by a score of 26-20 in front of a crowd of 32,492. Former member of the Four Horsemen and member of the 1924 Notre Dame national championship team, Elmer Layden took over in 1934 as the head coach of the ND football team and was in his 7th season as head coach in 1940. Later he would go on to become the commissioner of the NFL. The 1940 ND team finished with an 7-2 record with their only losses vs. Iowa and to #10 Northwestern. Halfbacks Steve Juzwik and Milt Piepul both were awarded 3rd team All-American status in 40 (UP and CP – Central Press Association respectively). Tackle Lou Rymkus would go on to be drafted by the Washington Redskins and win an NFL Championship with the Cleveland Browns in 1950. He was a four-time NFL All-Pro. He would later become the Houston Oilers head coach and win Superbowl V as the OL coach for the Baltimore Colts.
