I really like the uniform except for the helmet. It's just weird. But the uniform is nice.

I don't give a shit if they change every aspect of the uniform every game...as long they win that's all I care about.

The only thing I am confused on is why isn't the helmet split down the middle?

@Jake_Brown: Fans might complain about these type of uniform changes but it's all about the players/recruits. It's a big deal to them. #NotreDame

Have to agree with that even though I'm not big on them.

good lord, the helmet's hideous--change the uni all you want, but keep the golden dome!

I 100% agree. I love uni changes. It's fun. Almost every single one has something that's jut dumb. But they're still fun.

I like the pants and the jersey but not a fan of changing the helmet.

I disagree with that statement. It's not "all about the players/recruits." I think that's a part of it. But it's not ALL of it.

I think a large majority of why this is done is because it's a new jersey to sell. Bottom line, people are going to buy this jersey when it goes on sale...just like they bought the "Under the Lights" jersey from last year. Yes, it helps with recruits. But it also brings in money. THAT is why these uniform changes happen.

On a good note though. Golson has thrown 1 int in 126 attempts in 11 on 11 so far in fall practice

I can't predict how popular those will be but I won't be adding them to my jersey collection. Some will. Maybe a lot will. However, I think the traditional uni's will remain fan favorites. If it is mostly about making money....might wanna come up with some better than that. I like last year's much better than these.

They look much better, even acceptable, when on the players and not the promotional character.

Lou Holtz wanted to add a design to the helmets, he was told no. The helmets represented the cathedral dome.

This is for one game not permanently. I'm sure that's why there allowing it. I don't agree but it is what it is

I wonder who will replace wood? Shumate? Brown? Move slaughter to corner possibly?

Atkinson, Russell, Jalen Brown.

Shumate had been at corner for camp, Slaughter had been a little bit.
