I know Notre Dame has been on the cover of SI dozens of times over the years, but this has to be a first for Touchdown Jesus, no? If Matt Barkley wasn’t out for the ND vs. USC game this weekend, I’d say this is a jinx in the making… but with no Matt… doubt it. ND won’t lose ’til Bama beats them in the national championship.
Side note: Adidas didn’t pay a penny for this cover. Best advertisement ever.
