I'm imagining if Red Wolf was a fan of the Razorbacks he'd be an Arkansas version of you rn given that the Huskers seem to embarrass themselves at a similar rate to Arkansas nowadays. Scratch that, the Huskers aren't that much of an embarrassment yet, they're closer to Tennessee-level humiliation.

Watching a bit of this American Heritage-Los Alamitos game...#4's almost TD just now where he was caught from behind about 2 yards shy of a score after busting through the defense literally had me humming the Retro Bowl music
-
You are correct, silver numbers was 93 only, then black numbers/script afterwards (with a black version with teal numbers added a few years later IIRC)
-
Likely unpopular opinion: Kenyon's owl... it's not half bad.
-
You'd be surprised how popular scripts resembling the mid 2000s Padres (and colored jerseys reminiscent of the late 90s Padres) are among college baseball teams. I am somewhat surprised that script migrated to the football helmet bumper, but only because things unique to the baseball teams (Arizona State's interlocking AS, Miami's English M, Oklahoma State's use of just an O) rarely ever get used by the other sports, Rice's English R being a notable exception.

Sharks/Seals mashup...well holy crap. It's really happening. Without actually trying to, I called it.
-
Yeah, it doesn't really feel that way given that the Cards have moved twice, have usually been mediocre to awful, and they're probably the only team out there whose attempted sale resulted in an entire rival league forming...out of several prospective buyers they turned down, at that
-
So basically what the Cubs did last year, then.
-
Fitting....feels like Haslem's the last remaining member of the expansion Heat
-
Actually the gold jerseys came around about a year or two before they changed the regular set's bronze to gold IIRC.
-
Can confirm...the UW system doesn't do it, a vestige of when they had nothing to do with Madison. Only ones I know that use red at all are River Falls (main) and Green Bay (secondary). UWM used to but it's been decades since they did.
-
I recall FAMU doing this in either the late 90s or early 2000s. No idea why they did it like that.
-
Wait...so their black jersey has yellow gold. Their white jersey uses Vegas gold. Their third uses no gold. The explanation for why they did this on purpose will probably be a doozy.
-
Given how boring I think CMU's logo is, I've never done a concept for them (and I actually know a guy who pitched for the Chips in the mid 2000s)...but you've overcome that blandness in a way that requires busting out this little dude

Yeah, that's probably coming. Tonight, though, the Vikings, in both the modern look and the first concept-like thing I'm electing to do, not counting the mint Saints helmet-a tweaked version of the Moss era roads, in that the current viking head and number font are used. If I'd used a yellow cream, I probably would've changed the sleeve stripes on the modern set to match the pants stripes, in case you're wondering.
-
Well, time to jump around then. Or do a whole lot of running for nothing.
-
Probably Hell, I got an uncle who hates the Lions' throwbacks many of us love.
-
You know what? I was intrigued by the idea and gave it a shot. Throwing in a purple tint just to show it off. Staying in the NFC Souf, I give you the first of my threatened uses of bone...naturally, it's the guys with a skull in their logo. Also tried out a pale creamsicle tint...which is nearly identical to the warmer cream used for the Steelers, but whatever.
-
The sock's not really elongated enough here to really emulate the 1908 sock, like @coco1997.said, this looks more like a t-shirt. That said, sorry for beating you to the punch by about a decade, give or take. Love it
-
I debated with myself on whether I should skip this next team or not, and curiosity won out, so here go the Steelers. The tints used here are both intended to hint at steel in a couple disparate states...on top, a warm, molten tint...granted, actually trying to capture the distinct hues of molten steel would probably require a gradient, thus the talking up of a standard, yellow-orangish cream (though not as completely orange as the Bears version); on the bottom, a blue-gray tint, steel in its cooled, ready to build state, if you will. Oddly enough, I like the warm cream here a lot more than I thought I would, mostly because gold doesn't get as lost here as it has a maddening tendency to when paired with warm cream shades.
-
I figured I'd use an orange-tint for the top, and try a blue tint on the bottom. To change things up a bit, figured I'd show the blue tint version with matching pants.
-
Saints throwback/color rush...on top is a gold tint, on the bottom is one of the "not a team color" shades I mentioned, a mint green tint...why green? Mardi Gras, and a purple tint might look too much like what I intend to do with the Ravens.
-
In my mind's eye, I'm seeing several ways I can do this with some teams, and at that more than a few unexpected directions, some teams I might skip, some throwback versions I might sneak in, and I finally realized why I hate the Mariners' fauxbacks: the shade I'll call MLB cream is too yellowish to work with royal/yellow gold effectively (and would look horrible with their regular colors if they were ever dumb enough to go down that road). Something more blueish would have been a much better choice. As an example, I'll likely use the cream shade from the Browns set for the Bears, but it would look awful on the Cowboys. This all said, thanks so far, Saints and Bears likely coming up later tonight.

So in the 2022 NFL changes thread, @CDCLT has been vocal about thinking it should have been the Browns who tried an off-white road jersey, not the Rams. Dude's got a point. I think there are at least a couple teams bone would work for...neither of them are the Rams. This isn't the first time I've made cream football concepts, but it's admittedly been a minute...so I give you the Browns in not only cream road jerseys but with cream stripes and numbers on the brown jerseys. I figure one thing, if this turns into a series, I'm probably not doing the whole league...there are some teams where something like this frankly wouldn't work. For the most part, I'm likely mostly gonna post off-white jerseys here, as during the thought experiment phase, there emerged more than a few teams I thought could pull off at least two off-white shades. There are also a few shades I'm thinking of that would actually not be based on team colors, but might end up working in a strange way anyway.
