Could you post the links to your concepts? My browser is having difficulty seeing them, but with a link, I could save the image and then open it to see it...

I absolutely LOVE these! The sleeve and pant striping are great, and I actually like the gunmetal gray. I would be to get rid of the shoulder stripes and move the numbers to the shoulders, so the sleeves aren't so crowded. I would also make the Miami wordmark on the pants a little bigger.

Can't wait to see my Irish!!!

Nice love those Miami ones,but get rid of the gun metal and make an orange helmet.

edit:Keep the gray/silver pants though.

Really liking this Miami set. I feel like I was one of the few that liked their pro combats wth the palm print(though I think orange on orange was a little much) and I'm glad to see it here. I also think the black/gun metal looks extremely good here, i personally think that as long as the color is in grayscale and it LOOKS GOOD, then go ahead and add a color. My only complaints are that the orange stripe on the green helmet doesn't look so good and the shoulder stripe is clogging up the sleeve. I'd take it out and move the numbers to the shoulders. Another suggestion would be to incorporate the palm design in the white helmet so it doesnt look so out of place on the modern uniform.

Notre Dame

-Notre Dame was a fun one. I knew exactly what I wanted to do, which was use the shamrock, the "Irish" basketball font, and the color green. I figured multiple color helmets would be overkill--yes, even within the walls of this series--so I made two gold helmets with different logos and facemask colors. The black jersey is another basketball inspired element, though it doesn't directly follow the color pattern ND has used. Pants are plain, but I added white ones. There you go, have at it!

Loving the series so far! And I really like what you did with Notre Dame, that would be a great update for them. Can't wait to see what you do for Alabama and Duke!

[mbannon92]

I like where you're going with ND, but I have several suggestions.

First, I would replace the ND helmet with their current one. I like the shamrock helmet though, as we've worn it before (a LONG time ago).

Next, I would match the NDs on the sleeves (in terms of color) with the numbers. I would also get rid of the NOB and the shoulder numbers, since we rarely have had them.

Lastly, I would get rid of the adidas stripes on the back of the collar and move the shamrock below the back of the collar. It just doesn't look right to me on the chest.

I know that's a lot, but Notre Dame is a hard team to change. And the new adidas template kind of limits design options. But I love the wordmark, shamrock, and inclusion of green, and I would acutally be happy if these were are permanent unis.

these are seriously some of the best football concepts I've seen man. very well done. LOVE Miami, I usually don't like Miami concepts but you pulled it off beautifully. Georgia is wonderful as well.

Notre Dame = ehhh...

These look pretty traditional + shoulder stripes...

Florida

-This is the Florida concept I posted last month, except the Gator logo has moved to the pro combat shield on the collar, the sleeve stripes now have the gator skin pattern to better go with the pants, and the pants have the F logo on the side. I even wanted to keep the "gator" pro combat uniform b/c while doing a lot of fourth jerseys, I don't want every other team to have a black one...and Florida does have green on their official logo, so...I toned the green down and combined it with "steel" to make a gator like uniform! and I'm not afraid to post it! (plus, with Florida being an almost exclusively Revo wearing school, they'd literally look like Gators in them)

and a helmet logo, and a blue facemask, and wordmark, and green, and a black jersey? agree to disagree

[mbannon92]

I may have commented on Florida on your original thread, but they look really good. The gator print is a must have, and you used it well, and I like the updated font. I just think you should make the green/steel alternate a little more green.

[aawagner011]

I have a very slight color deficiency, but usually have no problems identifying colors. However, I'd have had no idea that the charcoal-green UF uniform had any green coloring at all if you hadn't said so. It just looks SO gray to me. I'd try to liven it up a bit with a touch more color. The rest of the Gators set looks phenomenal.

On a side note, I think the all white Gators set would look extremely snazzy. I really enjoyed their all white set from the SEC championship game when they got beat by Bama. I thought that looked great.

just a little update. added Virginia Tech to the team list. working on Duke as you read this.

Duke

- Here's a pretty obvious change. Why Duke chose an Indianapolis Colts copy over anything that resembles their amazing basketball identity is beyond me. This uniform set takes one of the best looks in college basketball and puts it on the gridiron. The white and blue helmets are primary, while the black is reserved for the black jersey. All pants and jerseys are interchangable. Really, this concept isn't that mad...in fact, pardon me for praising my own work, but it captures their identity much better than their current uniforms. The collar slogan is "Eruditio et Religio", which is the school's latin motto.

[mbannon92]

Duke looks great! I especially love that sleeve design, it's really unique. HUGE improvement over what they have now.

[Brave-Bird 08]

thanks mbannon! I originally had the idea to do side panels like the basketball uniforms, and focused on it even more after I saw your concept (I wanted to differentiate)...but then I decided side panels on the template were a) unrealistic and b]fugly, so I stuck it on the sleeve. Looked way better than I envisioned. Has a nice uniqueness, me thinks.

Just for an update to all viewers, I think I'm going to get around to doing some action representations of my favorite combinations. I might take a break every 5 teams or so to do some of those. Be on the look out!

Syracuse

-for Syracuse I wanted to let orange and white be the dominating colors, and let blue be an accent. I feel like that's a plan that could separate them from Illinois. The basketball unis come into play here again, with silver numbers on three of the four jerseys. At first I thought that would be too much, but then I reminded myself this is "revamp madness"!! I let the primary road jersey with orange numbers because I felt using primary silver numbers would be overkill. So, I made two white jerseys, Oregon Ducks style. I also felt like the orange helmet was solid enough with each combination that I didn't need to make another one. The collar reads "Big Orange"

This is by far my favorite college football concept I have ever seen on these boards. I have always loved Syracuse's new jerseys, and the way you incorporated into a football uniform is easily (**) (**) 's from me. Bravo!
