In light of the recent #IrishWearGreen campaign, it seems fathomable that the Notre Dame football team could come out in the “cursed” green jerseys come September 1st. The Notre Dame student body has been pushing a “Green Out” for a couple of weeks, and it now has the support of the University.
Some Irish fans have not-so-fond memories of the green jerseys — and for good reason. When I think of the green jerseys, I think of Notre Dame losing to USC in 2005 and especially in 2007, when Notre Dame was trounced 38-0. There are also multiple losses to Michigan in green — the most recent being Michigan’s “Throwback Night” — which ended up being a 35-31 defeat for the boys in green.
