MJD7 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Thei play on the field didn’t look at all great tonight, but in my opinion Florida State’s black-out alternate is one of the best in college football. Even if it is BFBS, it’s a good look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll gladly be the grumpy old man and say that trend looks stupid and I hate it. ...that said, I don't think it looks terrible on the Seahawks for some reason. It just kind of seems to fit their style somehow. I'm also cool with Carolina going all-black. Beyond those, though, the jersey and pants shouldn't match unless they're both white. I like Carolina's all black look, but it's because they have the electric blue socks to balance it all out. The Seahawks are in head to toe navy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chromatic Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I like the Oilers in orange. I think the design is just as good, if not better than their classic blues, but people are (rightfully) biased towards the blue because those are the jerseys they won 5 cups in. However I still think the orange is a better look for Edmonton. There are 7 Canadian teams, four of which would be wearing monochromatic blue and the others red. The orange separates the Oilers a bit, gives them a bit of distinction, and this is the McDavid era, not the Gretzky era. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it having a distinct aesthetic. Also as perhaps another unpopular opinion, that thing about every Canadian team being in blue or red is why I would not be upset if the Canucks went to green full time and the Sens went back to black. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniel75 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I wish nhl teams would stick with 3rd jerseys for the foreseeable future, in other words treat them like their primaries. I guess I just like consistency, if I were a soccer fan that type of thing would drive me nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch B Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 I find American Football uniforms to be the least asthetically pleasing of any major sport. Perhaps I am becoming a grumpy old man, but I dislike most of the uniform trends in football: lack of stripes on pants and socks, names and letters replacing stripes, non-traditional striping patterns, monochrome uniforms (this would work better with traditional striping on the pants and socks, side panels and piping on jerseys, and decreasing use of materials that provide a more glossy metallic look to jerseys and particularly pants. Football looks ugly to me these days. 1 Quote "Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong." Dennis Miller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davidellias Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 With that being said, Nebraska's "N" Helmet logo needs to go. Do the NU helmet they used in the laste 60s and that would look better, the "N" hasn't aged well and look extremely dated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch B Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Oops, I forgot my #1 pet peeve regarding football uniforms: Teams wearing colors that aren’t in their traditional color schemes. I hate switching the channel to a college game and not immediately knowing who is playing. P.S. I am also one on those guys who walked miles in the snow to and from school (uphill both ways) back in the day. 5 Quote "Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong."

PrimalCookie Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I really don’t like the Packers jerseys (both home and away). IMO the yellow is too bright: it goes poorly with the dark green, and doesn’t contrast enough with the white. I also think that the stripes, especially the collar stripes, are just too busy. Take away the small stripe in between on the sleeves, and just remove the collar striping altogether. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the early 90s, they had a more drab green and a lighter but more mustardy yellow, and it looked dingy. The current forest green and brighter yellow look much better, in my opinion. 1 Quote oh ,my god ,i strong recommend you to have a visit on the website ,or if i'm the president ,i would have an barceque with the anthor of the articel .

tommytimp Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 I'e never been a fan of the Bengal's stripe scheme. Always hated the helmets and the latest redesigns are awful. If they wanted to go back to the boring basic Ken Anderson-era look, it wouldn't bother me. (Although an orange jersey might be interesting.) Speaking of, I like the Browns' set. I understand the objections people have, and I dislike the piping look on the jersey seams, and maybe the NCAA is the proper place for the name-on-the-pants look, but their look has always been so block-basic that it's not a sacreligeous gear-strip or anything.
