Huh?  I have been watching CFB my whole life and obsessed with uniforms for almost as long and I have no idea what you are talking about.

 

The fur stripes have been on Goldy (the mascot) forever.

Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Honestly if TCU got rid of the stupid frog print stuff, they would have one of the better uniforms in college football 

The frog print isn't the problem IMO. It's the places they use it that is. There's no need to have an entire frog print jersey. I like their current black one with just the frog print on the collar and cuffs. That works perfectly.

Yup. Less is more. The Bengals do a good job with the Tiger stripe helmet. Mizzou, at times, does not.

True....but I wouldn't say that those stripes are "Instantly recognizable to most intimate CFB fans."

I'm still working on why his jersey only has stripes on one sleeve. Must be a new Pro Combat thing.

New Utes helmet this week colors the block U with a Ute tribal design

That's a nice helmet. Doesn't really go with their set at all, but it's nice as a standalone, one-time thing. Here's a closer look:

You're probably right about that. I guess I should've said instantly recognizable to B1G / College Football logo buffs.

Gah. I want to hate that Minnesota helmet but I can't. 

 

Also, would it be unpopular to say I'm still not fond of TCU's set and don't get why everyone drools over them? They've mixed and matched so many elements in the past decade I'm not sure they have a real identity anymore. I've always had a soft spot for the LT era set because it was both cohesive and memorable.

That TCU uniform was one of the best in college football.

Yeah, it may be more recognizable to B1G fans. I'm a HUGE college football buff and logo geek....but I wouldn't have been able to place that striping decal as the gopher tail. Then again, Minnesota doesn't get much exposure down here in south Louisiana either.

They should use that pattern as the basis for their striping, would look good and unique.

Man, that triangle trim on the cuffs and collars was fantastic.  Understated but unique.

I dont post here much but I'm a WVU alum and fan. They will be wearing white lids, blue jersey, blue pants this weekend. I was okay the first season of the new unis but then I noticed they were not that good. For the life of me I dont know why WVU does not get updated uniforms and even have alternates. Its like we are living in the past while every other school (some horrible, others good) are constantly getting uni refreshes. WVU might not be a blue blood school but the flying WV logo is widely recognizable. If not Nike, I hope someone will outfit my Alma mater better.

The old gold helmets were better in a vaccum, but I like the change because it brings it in line with the rest of their helmets.

 

Now they just need to pick a shade of gold. The one they use on their jerseys and pants is much,much paler than the one on this helmet.
