Adding yet another chapter to an overwhelming crop of alternate jerseys in college football, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish revealed their brand new official Adidas jerseys for an upcoming Oct. 6 date with the Miami Hurricanes at Soldier Field.

SB Nation's Irish blog One Foot Down has a full breakdown, but the verdict still remains out on whether the two-part helmet (ESPN's Darren Rovell posted the logo side on Twitter) was a good idea in the end.

Like them or not, there's no denying the value of drumming up media interest in a football program with a completely new jersey layout like this. Although the final product looks closer to a mesh of Purdue's or much worse, Michigan's, colors in the end, it will definitely be neat to see such unique jerseys in action on Oct. 6.
