Or their fans for that matter?

They did wear green last year, I believe against Army (special games I believe).If they wear their blue and gold (which I expect), I am praying that we come out in all green (including helmet).

That would be sick but, don't we have to have special permission / agreement from the home team to not wear white when the away team? (reference "pat white night" vs WVU, The white out @ FSU)

And there would be 0 chance ND would allow us to come out in all green, but would be pretty **** cool.

We could certainly go green, white, green. Hats, shirts, pants. That is if Athletics went for a 3rd set of helmets.That would be sick but, don't we have to have special permission / agreement from the home team to not wear white when the away team?

I hope they unleash the green helmets for a game like ND (or all green for WVU at home on Fri night), and not necessarily for a noon Kick-off Cincy (homecoming game, similar to what they did with the gold helmets last year for homecoming). As long as we don't wear gold helmets (which I have always liked, and love the new prototypes I have seen on here), I will be happy. We need to make it as easy as possible for BJ to make reads.Obviously, I don't care what we wear as long as we show up for the game. I didn't mean to turn this into another jersey debate (just trying to help out Old_bull).

Maybe Penn State with White outs, but FSU Black out is an L every year. WVU got spanked in the White outs, and Yellow outs if I remember right. Oregon just has too many options to think any are color outs. I can see the white helmets for ND. As much as I do not like them, I can concede the point there. Or Green if that is true. I am sure we will be in White jerseys. I hope Green pants, just not all white.. look like PJs. Green Helmet, White Jersey, Gold Pants.. badda bing.

All green might be cool just because of the story line but all one color outfits don't look so great. We need to mix up the colors more traditionally. Green, White, Green, or White, Green, White... etc. No flipping gold anywhere other than trim or on a helmet. Those are the only places it belongs. There's definitely something to be said for allowing your QB to distinguish his guys. BJ deserves every mental edge he can get.
