Cujo Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Barring a Cleveland-esque mega leak, new Colorado football uniforms are to be released this Friday. In the meantime, the Buffs throwing us a few teasers leading up to the big unveiling: Clean road jersey. CHECK. Golden dome. CHECK. Logo unchanged. CHECK. So far so good. No need to hit the panic button quite yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Looks like they are going with a darker gold helmet, should be a good start. Maybe they'll be pulling a Cleveland and simply moving the Pac-12 logo to the sleeves? That would have been awesome on their old uniforms.

logoman Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I think that jersey is grey. Or, it could just be the lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilliesPhan1325 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Colorado still has a football program? This got a very loud chuckle out of me in the office. I then had the side thought to check out their recent records..... and its not pretty. 31-79 since '06. Yeesh..With that said, I love their color scheme and there's a lot of potential for their set. I'd love to see the throwback be included. "The 0-2 pitch... SWING AND A MISS! STRUCK HIM OUT! THE PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES ARE 2008 WORLD CHAMPIONS OF BASEBALL!" J M yoU wish you had a Duke Dog!

j'villejags Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Cujo, I really like that logo in your avatar. Was that something you designed? I've never seen it before.

lahaye7 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I'm guessing the Buffs will have 3 helmets (darker gold, white, and Anthracite) 3 matching jerseys and pants. Probably will see a throwback Silver set too as a surprise to the recruits. There will be a Unique set of wordmarks and numbers. Still have new colorado font on the chest and Buffs on the pant legs like the Browns. Might have school colors in a mountain like stripes on the sleeve caps (think Utah)....It's a new fresh start for the home where the Buffalo roam.

Cujo Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 It's looking more and more like "classic meets modern". Up to this point, I'm stunned. Nike might not screw this one up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattb6 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I'm guessing italicized numbers with the rest remaining the same or similar, utalizing that inferior font (I think it's ITC Machine or something like that) instead of standard block. I wish they'd just go back to this: Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BupsJones Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Yup, the font that Nike refers to as "Boulder" is actually ITC Machine with a 9 degree forward slant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 From the teasers, I have a good feeling these are going to look a lot like the Gary Barnett-era unis. All that's left to decide is: What will the striping look like and what color they'll choose for alternate jerseys & helemts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is no striping on the pants and some "iconic horns of ralphie" uniform striping. i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscienceĀ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kidding aside, I actually do like the look that CU has had for the last several seasons. Black and gold is a good high-contrast color scheme, which always helps, IMO. 5th in NAT.Ā TITLESĀ |Ā 2nd in CONF.
