Notre Dame Fans Continue To Trash Alabama With Offensive National Championship T-Shirts

In the month leading up to Notre Dame's first trip to the national championship game in more than two decades, Irish faithful have created a series of T-shirts bashing their opponent, Alabama.
Notre Dame is winning the trash-talking battle with the series of racy shirts, but the last thing Notre Dame needs is to provide a feisty Crimson Tide team and fan base with any source of motivation before the game.
Maybe Alabama will take the shirts for their comedic value.
Eleven days to the BCS National Championship game:
Former Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen drew criticism from the public less than two weeks ago when he tweeted out a photo of this shirt:
And here's the latest pro-Notre Dame shirt:

We'll see.
-Roll Tide-
I think that t-shirt is clever.
Tee-hee. :)
“I used to think that Notre Dame had some class.”
They are just like the University of Southern California. A bunch of classless rich people who think it’s sportsmanlike to trash talk. One year at UC Berkeley we went down for the SC game. All the SC rooters had “Bang the Bears” T-Shirts and when you asked them about it they said “wait until next week when we play the Oregon Ducks!”
Seems like fair game, and not offensive. Whether it is up to the standards expected from a Catholic institution, not for me to say. I generally like Notre Dame, but their past conduct on a number of issues and who they welcome to campus often has not followed Catholic teachings.
They probably had some class in the old days, really old days
The second one, I mean. The first is, “meh.”
I don’t have a dog in this fight, but what would you expect from a bunch of northern ObamaBots?
reminds me of Cal against USC
Trojans burst (break) under pressure
“They probably had some class in the old days, really old days”
When they lost to Roger Staubach, probably. Gracious.
I don’t get it?
You should have been disabused of that notion the first time they honored obama with an honorary degree while at the same time they were have elderly priests thrown in jail for having the temerity to say the Holy Rosary on campus property. As far as this lifetime Catholic is concerned Notre Dame is now Notre Shame.
Roll Tide!
Is this the Notre Dame that gave a doctorate to O’bama. The same Notre Dame who arrested an 80 year old priest who had the guts to protest? The same Notre Dame who won’t object to Obama’s abortion methods? Yup. Got it. I remember now.
But Notre Dame has been a shadow of its former self for decades now.
It wouldn't surprise me if more people go to Mass in Tuscaloosa every Sunday than do in South Bend.
Roll Tide.
At least they have a sense of humor. It's harmless and funny.
I love motivational t-shirts and unfortunate statements from opponents. RTR
I will get upset at this when the bamers stop singing rammer jammer.
Don’t see what the problem is.
