They're not officially official just yet. But according to the Detroit Free-Press, the throwback uniforms Michigan will wear for this year's primetime extravaganza against Notre Dame -- the first night game in Michigan Stadium history -- "will be modeled" on the sample image here:
Between this look and the Irish's planned 1960s throwbacks, on national television, with the Big House history being made, the game is shaping up to be quite the event for a matchup of teams that won a combined 15 games a year ago.
The only problem: assuming Michigan's jerseys do look more-or-less like the mockup above, this MVictors Wolverine uniform history tour shows that they won't actually be throwing back to any specific former look; they'll be wearing what the uniform designers at Adidas seem to think a Michigan throwback ought to look like.
Not a big deal if the uniforms come out looking snazzy anyway, but this is college football. A little more effort at authenticity would be nice.
