The Fighting Irish know that it's important to dress the part at someone else's home, especially when visiting for the first time. Notre Dame will do just that when they visit Lambeau Field for Week 1 of the college football season.

The Fighting Irish are paying tribute to the Green Bay Packers with a uniform tweak that honors the NFL franchise's storied history. They'll be wearing uniforms that have a deep blue hue, which is the color the 1920's Packers wore.

Additionally, Notre Dame's sleeves will feature stripes that are similar to Green Bay's uniform.

The jersey will also feature 11 shamrocks, as a nod to the number of Notre Dame's consensus national championships.

"For a century, our stories have been stitched together -- from the 'Golden Boy' Paul Hornung winning titles in both colors to the Notre Dame box formation that defined the early days of Green Bay," Fighting Irish head coach Marcus Freeman said in a promotional video on social media. "We are the outliers. The small town legends. The independent spirits who believe tradition isn't just something you remember. It's something you wear."

USA TODAY's Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that Wisconsin, Notre Dame's Week 1 opponent, will also wear alternate uniforms.
