However, Notre Dame won't be joining the Big Ten in football or basketball. When it comes to hockey the Irish are feeling lucky. Starting in the fall of 2017 Ohio State's hockey team can continue the tradition of defeating Notre Dame.
Earlier this evening the Big Ten released this tweet:
OFFICIAL: Notre Dame added as a Big Ten member for mens ice hockey starting in 2017-18 --> https://t.co/Yg02iSTjaN pic.twitter.com/lg6W5vkwDC

How much has changed since the Irish beat Ohio State on the football field? Below is a list for the average cost of goods back in 1936:
- Bread: 8 cents
- Gallon of Gas: 10 cents
- New Car: $665
- New House: $3,925
Damn, it's good to be a Buckeye.
