Best CFB Week 1 Jerseys: Notre Dame, Wisconsin Top List

After a quality Week 0 appetizer, college football is officially back in full swing for Week 1. Every night from Thursday to Monday will have at least one game, and almost every team will be in action. And with so many squads taking the field, there will be a number of standout uniforms.

The headliner from Week 1 is almost certainly Notre Dame-Wisconsin. They open the season Sunday night at Lambeau Field in alternate looks rather than their respective usual classic threads. Notre Dame is going historic with its uniforms, nodding to the 1920s-era "Acme Packers" via a deep blue hue and blocky numbers among other details, while Wisconsin will be sporting an all-red look. The result? A particularly distinctive -- and unique -- uniform combination.

But it isn't the only game this week that will spotlight quality threads. Cal opens with throwback uniforms in new coach Tosh Lupoi's first game, featuring a royal blue shade. Utah State's cow-print helmets, born from an April Fools' joke, will be on display for "Ag Day." Old Dominion honors Lt. Col. Brandon A. Shah with camouflage uniforms and "LTC Shah" on every jersey. Air Force goes patriotic with red, white and blue threads, and UCF sports an all-black look with gold accents.

Chicago is flexing Nobel Prizes with helmet stickers reading "101, and counting," representing prizes won by university affiliates.
