Kevin McDougal
Kevin T. McDougal (born May 29, 1972) is best known as the starting quarterback for the University of Notre Dame football team who narrowly missed winning the national championship in 1993. He is currently a real estate investor in South Florida.
McDougal played four seasons under head coach Lou Holtz and served as the backup quarterback during his first three years behind Rick Mirer. Entering his senior season, he competed for the starting role with true freshman Ron Powlus, who suffered a shoulder injury in a preseason scrimmage and subsequently redshirted, leaving McDougal as the starter.
In the season opener against Northwestern, McDougal led Notre Dame to a 27–12 victory. He guided the Irish to a 9–0 start, setting up a Week 10 matchup against No. 1 Florida State. In the game, No. 2 Notre Dame defeated No. 1 Florida State, 31–24, in a contest widely referred to as the "Game of the Century," earning the top ranking in the country. However, the following week, Notre Dame was upset by No. 17 Boston College in the Holy War, eliminating them from national championship contention.
In the 1994 Cotton Bowl Classic against Texas A&M, McDougal led the Irish to a 24–21 victory, completing 7 of 15 passes for 105 yards and adding 13 rushing yards, including a touchdown. For the season, he led Notre Dame to an 11–1 record while missing one game due to injury. He threw for 1,451 yards with seven touchdowns and five interceptions, and added four rushing touchdowns.
In April 1994, McDougal signed as an undrafted free agent with the Los Angeles Rams but did not make the final roster.
On March 21, 1995, McDougal signed with the London Monarchs of the World League of American Football. He served as the backup quarterback to Brad Johnson and split time with Jim Ballard. During the season, he completed 16 of 36 passes for 162 yards with two interceptions.
Following the 1995 WLAF season, McDougal signed with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers of the Canadian Football League. Over three seasons with the Blue Bombers, he appeared in 27 games and started 12, recording starts in each season. During that time, he completed 185 of 327 passes for 2,356 yards with nine touchdowns and 16 interceptions, while adding 429 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns. He was released on October 9, 1997, with three games remaining in the season.
In 1998, McDougal signed with the Milwaukee Mustangs of the Arena Football League. He started over veteran Todd Hammel in the season opener against Florida, completing 15 of 26 passes for three touchdowns. All three scores went to wide receiver Gary Compton, including a 45-yard touchdown on the first offensive play of the season. Over the 1998 season, he appeared in five games (one start), completing 33 of 65 passes for 584 yards with 11 touchdowns and two interceptions. He was named to the AFL All-Rookie Team. He returned as Hammel's backup during the 1999 season and did not play in the regular season. Following Hammel's departure, McDougal was named the starter and completed 285 of 442 passes for 3,887 yards with 73 touchdowns and 17 interceptions, setting team records for touchdowns and yardage. After his stint with the Chicago Enforcers of the XFL, McDougal returned to the Mustangs in Week six against the San Jose Sabercats, throwing for 292 yards and five touchdowns. In 10 games, he finished the season with 2,414 yards on 285 of 344 passing with 36 touchdowns and nine interceptions, while adding eight rushing touchdowns.
