Re: Battle of the Losers!!
Let's face it, Ralph. These two teams have traditionally been darlings of the sports media. Surely they think it matters. Personally, I can't say that I care. If I were to looking to support a team from outside of Texas, I'd like to see Penn State win it all for Paterno.TexTuba wrote:So who do y'all have winning the Notre Dame/Michigan game?

I like the green jerseys. It's really neat to watch the ND players disappear under the yellow first down line.the elephant wrote:But it is a tense set of circumstances!!!!!!! Will ND use the (not so) "lucky" green jerseys for the Michigan game like all of those great green-jerseyed appearances against SC? (Please, ND and Charlie, the boys look like they play for Baylor when they wear that get up! Ditch the dang green jerseys already!

Didn't Knute Rockne have the team in green jerseys?
irishlegends.com wrote:October 8
1921: Although Gold and Blue have always been and still are the Notre Dame school colors, green football jerseys were first used in a game against Iowa in 1921 when Knute Rockne, realizing that Iowa's dark jerseys would make it difficult to distinguish between the players, ordered the green worn. The switch wasn't lucky for the Irish, as they were upset by the Iowan's 10-7. The green remined with our team as an alternate color through the years, popping up occasionally as a surprise, as in Dan Devine's ploy against Southern Cal in 1977.
