Notre Dame Uniforms, Adidas has released a promotional video pimping the 2013 Shamrock Series for Notre Dame’s Fighting Irish American football team.

The Notre Dame team, headed up by Brian Kelly, will wear this predominantly white uniform in their game against Arizona State at the Cowboys stadium (October 5).

For the past two years the Indiana University team has worn a new uniform for the Shamrock Series with the helmets tending to be the most creative part.

Traditionalists believe that the Notre Dame team should stick with their navy blue uniforms but more recently the team’s gone to a more white, green and gold motif.

The team’s site describes the uniform as, “TECHFIT jersey is all-white with metallic gold and kelly green shamrock accents, Celtic numbers and an interlocking “ND” logo on the back neck. Notre Dame’s kelly green adidas TECHFIT baselayer highlights “FIGHTIN’ IRISH” on the chest and “ND” on each bicep. The Irish’s helmet features Notre Dame’s signature textured gold with a gold chrome shamrock detail on each side and a kelly green chrome face mask. Notre Dame will wear adidas Team Speed vertical socks with Crazyquick and adizero 5-Star 2.0 cleats.”

The site Slap the Sign suggests that, “If Notre Dame is going to stay ahead of the game then they must keep evolving like other programs do.”

FoxNews complained about the mirror effect of the chrome shamrock on the helmets but said “compared to last year’s hideous alternate uniforms, we aren’t complaining.”

The LSU Tigers play against Auburn Tigers on the 8th week of the NCAA College Football on October 23, 2010. This football game will be held at Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, Alabama, and it started at 3:30 PM ET.

Live coverage of the game of college football is available on channel CBS.

According to Miles, McNeese State passing game is not a threat to LSU.

The Auburn Tigers will play away currently fifth on Saturday. The coach still believes that LSU will not give Auburn an easy time. This is despite their poor record of 103 yards in passing and no touchdown through the air against any team in the Football Championship Subdivision.

LSU (7-0, 4-0 SEC) were able to pull away for a 32-10 victory against McNeese on Saturday. However, the offense does not seem to be at their best.

The Tigers played their third consecutive game with the system with dual quarterback Jordan Jefferson and Jarrett Lee but managed only two touchdowns. They were also able to lead by six points to Michael Ford scored a race at the end of the third quarter. Their last TD was the quarter was up 90 seconds remaining.

Miles believes that Jefferson and Lee had the capacity to perform even better. They could have been better if there was not their game-play that was about ball control and a racing game.

Iowa Football

Iowa Football, Iowa State was unable to hold it together against Kansas State. The crowd was huge and strong throughout the game, making it much harder to play the field. There have been reports that the team had a good week of practice, which probably contributed to his poor play in their 27-20 loss to Kansas State. Preparation for the game against Northern Iowa six more than likely not include their star quarterback Austen Arnaud, who was injured in the game today.

The team obviously has a lot to work, and blew a series of big plays that led to his loss. After the game, coaches said defense work on man coverage, and the area that the team struggled throughout the game. There were moments when it seemed the defense power, and able to take control of the game. Then, a large move is allowed and the defense fall back into bad habits, allowing receivers to beat them and missing easy tackles.

Arnaud said he had dropped a little awkward in his left elbow, and had decided to leave the game as a precaution. According to him, he will play next week, but ultimately, it is for coaches and is evaluated throughout the week.

He fought a tough match and ultimately ended in favor of the team that made the fewest mistakes, such as college football often.

Denard Robinson

Denard Robinson, Robinson was a school record 383 yards of total offense in his first start as quarterback for the Wolverines in the 30-10 victory over Connecticut. The Big Ten offensive player of the week rushed for 197 yards, the largest of a Michigan quarterback and threw for 186 more to complete a sizzling 19-of-22 passes. Not bad for a guy who had been involved in three-way competition for the starting job and was not sure how much he would play.

“I really do not know what to expect,” said Robinson in the Big Ten weekly teleconference. “(Coach Rico Rodriguez) just told us, ‘Denard, intends to make the first move, and everyone else is ready.” ”

It seems that the chain’s first job is the time, but is quick to share the credit. “They put me in a great situation,” he said. “The line was blocking well and we just had a great performance.”

It was the kind of performance Michigan fans probably expected to see when the school hired Rodriguez away from West Virginia, where the dual threat Pat White routinely put big points in his high-flying offenses.

But perhaps the aspect of the game Robinson has to see the crowd at the Big House was more excited about the enthusiasm displayed in the peloton, bringing a little happiness to a program used to proud of losing seasons.

“It’s still a game,” he said. “You’ve just got to enjoy being there on the field.”

It also seems to enjoy contact, although a success after a tough race caused him to miss a couple of snaps.

“All the men on the line D-have were telling me to go down.” You have to take what you have and save yourself. It will not hurt. ”

When asked if he would take the advice of his teammates next week at Notre Dame, Robinson laughed and said: “We’ll see.” It seems that going to do much slippage.
