Home Not surprised that this is the most popular one here, but IMO it's the clearest downgrade of the main 3. All they really did was take out most of the red and it's worse for it. Also some pretty odd decisions like single color TV numbers and repeating the helmet logo on the sleeves. It's fine, it's just bland, and it doesn't fit the vision for the rest of the (main) set. Grade: B- Away My personal favorite. Suffers from less red like the home, but I like the horns a lot. It's an interesting design that feels like a natural evolution of the USC stripes they've been using since day 1. Wish the numbers were still red but navy's fine. Not much else to say otherwise, solid look. Grade: A Alternate 1 It uses the same template as the away, which I like for continuity. I already said I like the horns as a design element, and the helmet is stunning. However, there are some flaws that bring it down a notch, the most glaring being the inconsistent use of white. I don't like that the horns on both helmet and jersey don't have white accents while the numbers and pant stripes do - it's one of those small details that'll badger me every time I see it. I'd also prefer white numbers, but again navy's fine. Grade: B Alternate 2 Yeah there's not much good with this one. The helmet logo is pretty bad and the red's very bright and sticks out a lot. I don't like the execution of the love ya blue either. Feels like a college "big game" alternate, and not the good kind. Grade: D- Overall I wish they'd fully committed to the away and red alternate's design. While there are certain things they could've improved on with both of them I see the vision and I think it'd be a pretty good update while keeping the spirit of the originals. But, since they didn't, the uniforms aren't "uniform" and it hurts the entire set. For almost half of their games, they'll look worse than they could've if they'd just stuck to the plan, and that's the worst part. Grade: C+

The Broncos were the last holdout in not using mountain imagery. Now all 5 teams in the Rockies do on at least one jersey - who wants to bet the Coyotes make it 6/6?

I'm disappointed the Magic aren't using the throwbacks - Minnesota is so it's definitely allowed. However, I can't really complain since they're not using the city at all. Both games in Cleveland will be Cavs white/Magic black, in Orlando it's Magic blue/Cavs white, so at least the consistency will be nice. Better than most other series, from what I can tell.

I understand having a placeholder logo/uniforms for year 1 but there’s no reason they can’t pick out a name before the start of the season. I really hope they do

Cities that tried to get the Coyotes but failed: - Kansas City - Hamilton - Winnipeg - Seattle - Quebec City - Houston - Likely more that I’m forgetting/we don’t know about The city that finally got them: - Salt Lake City I think Utah will be a pretty good hockey market, I’m just shocked they were the ones to get it done after so long. I really hate it for the the Coyotes fans… but it was time. It had been time for a while. Maybe they get a second chance down the road and make use of it, or not and they just become Atlanta 2. Sucks, but it also doesn’t. Yknow?

Turns out aero packages don't matter when you have a tire that actually wears. What a concept! They need to find a compound that lays down rubber instead of just shredding, but that was still pretty fun. I'm scared Goodyear will overreact and go back to the standard bricks they usually make.

Extreme Mountain West disrespect in this bracket. Every team except San Diego State dropped at least one seed from where the BracketMatrix average had them, with everyone except Colorado State dropping at least two. Nevada in particular was predicted as a 7 and ended up as a 10. That's brutal. The other teams that the bracketologists were significantly off on were Gonzaga and FAU (both +2) and Virginia (only 20 of the 200 had them in the field). Most had Oklahoma or St. John's in Virginia's place.

Ole Miss has been inching closer and closer toward making powder the main blue over the last few years. Definitely worried about the rest of the design considering how Kiffin likes the whole "different combo for every game" thing, but I hope they make the switch official.

So I was going to make my usual "I don't like the Chargers gold pants, in fact I don't like any uniform where all 3 elements are different and the helmet's the lightest of them" post that I always make whenever the Chargers come up, and then I came across this picture. The reason I was never a fan was because it made the uniform imbalanced and the helmet sticks out like it doesn't belong. The white numbers help somewhat (Wyoming is much worse than the Chargers because they have gold numbers), but yeah. I'm now realizing I think white socks fixes the problem. It makes it white at the top and bottom, and then blue/gold in between. The color blocking works now. Light-dark-medium-light instead of light-dark-medium-dark. I will never say this again: thank you players for wearing the incorrect socks, because it actually improved the look this time.

Danica is back!

Semi related, did they ever explain why the 1 didn't use the RCR font like the 8/15?

I think Nike will go for a certain crowd-pleaser in 2026. Either the sash or the Waldos for the home and then a 1994 denim callback for the away. ...so naturally it'll actually be plain white and some weird royal/red camo pattern.

What in the OSS trickery is going on here? That black border on the roof and A-post is crazy

I don’t love the switch from royal to navy, but the Sixers and Pistons are more established in red/white/blue so I get it. Would’ve preferred going the opposite direction since they have a history with powder, but it’s fine. Overall pretty good, big fan of going back to the script

I can see it, although I'd prefer both purple/white/purple and sticking with all-purple. My pick for the Chelsea style is New England.
