What is the "uniform surprise"?

LOL....
Notre Dame’s Shamrock Series May Be The Ugliest Uniforms of All Time | The Big Lead

The link for "Quotes from ND Fans" has some funny stuff to read. I'm accepting the uniform for what it is...which is, here, whether I like it or not.

One of my favorite quotes is, "If you are going to go out in public dressed like that you had better win, and win big. So big that no one would dare make fun of you. It is the uniform sartorial equivalent of naming your son Sue."

LOL!

You know what I have to say to Ty Duffy? Fukk you! I am from Toledo, I don't like it at all, and all the Rockets have is a 35 game Division I winning streak, which is still good for number 2, which all and all, ain't bad for a team from "Toledo!"

These people that post this nonsense, A) Have the most ridiculous names I have ever seen. Pick Cliff Claven and see how much respect you get from me. B) All have the same tired martyr line to whine, "I am the true fan, see how I am abused by these unbelievers in charge!"

They all need their prostates scraped.

And the comments on this thread aren't much better; get a life; and get a fukkin' sense of 'umor!

I hate them.
But I stand by my earlier comments prior to seeing the jerseys.

It's one game... it won't kill anyone.

One game per year. Can't wait to see what mess they'll roll out for next year's "Shamrock Series" game.

Just a lil preview.

I like how different the new ones are, but I'd love to see this for UTL this season. Green home version of last year's...

I just threw up in my mouth a little...
WTF?

Terrible.

Just terrible.

And I consider myself a progressively-minded uniform guy.

But wow!

Turn the damned thing on it's side and it looks like the half glass of beer I have in my hand right now.

And to those that say it is just for the players and recruits, I am sorry, but you are wrong. If it was why would they be having a press conference? Why would there be all the "swatches" and secrecy? Why would they be selling it all at Dicks and Kohls?

I cannot clearly tell from the pics but is there a stripe down the left hand side of the pants?

I love them, they are the best alternate jerseys I have seen Addidas make (many Nike alternates that are better).

I showed them to a bunch of my teammates in the locker room after practice and even ones that dislike ND loved them too.

Nebraska's 9 point, sans serif "N" is the dumbest thing I have ever seen on a helmet, including a "wing". They deserve that sh!t...

Hmmmm..... well, this 72 year old thinks that what he can see of the uniforms/helmets is just fine for a "specialty" game. Anything "dark" up top makes you look dangerous. The so-called "off-center" helmet design is actually quite close to the "Golden Section" ratio used by aesthetic artists from Da Vinci on [as I'm sure that most of the Board realized early on].

The huge left leg stripe is hidden in the pictures we have, so I can't get the aesthetics of that. It appears however to give the darker impression to the opponent when viewed flat left, and the lighter when viewed flat right. This could mildly confuse the opposing quarterbacks as his opponents alternately flashed lighter and darker uniforms at him during his reads. And anything which might for a second distract the opponent is money.

The bottom line is: any uniform containing Tyler Eifert or Manti Te'o is the uniform of an elite monster.

The more I look at the helmets the more I dislike them. Seems like it just keeps getting worse.

being the open-minded guy that I am (but still very old skool when it comes to ND; after all, Tradition is a big part of ND) I could live with everything but the helmet.

I'm one of the ppl that really like the lep, but I dont like that helmet, not even a little bit. However, I will say that as much as I dont like the helmets, they are far and above better than that montrosity that Maryland wore against ND last year or the year before.

This didn't even cross my mind and I believe it's the first mention of any such theory. I like it.

I like everything except the numbers on the sleeves of the undershirts.
