ltravisjr Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 I always liked their kelly green. One year, I think later than 1977, they wore this green exclusively. Not only that, but the away jerseys were white with green numerals. Green all the way that year. Does anyone know which year that was if it wasn't 1977? (I think it might have been during the Blair Keil era) LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 I much prefer these. The ones they're wearing today remind me of Mizzou's "we like yellow and gold and refuse to pick just one"I still say that was the best-looking big game of all time. The throwbacks were actually a case of them needing to throw those back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanB06 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Didn't help them a bit, though - the Irish were stomped in South Bend.

DDR Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 At the risk of offending any Golden Domers on here, this season has been very satisfying because of all the :censored:s I know who went to ND. Not saying everyone there is an , but I knew some monumental pricks that went there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have worn green primarily for the rest of Dan Devine's coaching tenure with the blue showing up only occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have worn green primarily for the rest of Dan Devine's coaching tenure with the blue showing up only occasionally.The linked site should answer this question and any others. It is a pretty definitive history of Notre Dame football uniforms.On this point, it says Notre Dame wore green from the 1978 Cotton Bowl until the end of the Dan Devine era (i.e., through 1980). Gerry Faust then returned to blue, but used a lighter royal blue that was apparently the blue originally worn by the Irish, as opposed to typical navy blue.bluegraysky.blogspot.comYou may need to scroll down to the May 17,2005 entry, titled "Uniformly Excellent."For the record, I discovered this site while trying to settle a debate with my sister-in-law who swore Notre Dame never wore names on the back of their jerseys. I was right, of course, but I have chosen not to confirm my victory for now, all in the interest of familial harmony. However, I reserve the right to pull it out at a later date if necessary.

hecticbro Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 They look like trash, but it suits this team. They should wear these for the rest of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
