    Unfortunately, unless they go 11-1 or 12-0 with a win over a mid-table P5 team, I think it's going to take time for that to happen. But if the G5 conferences each have a 13-0 champ that's two of them in the playoffs if they apply more weight to championship games. 

    Just think, if they had done the 1A playoffs at the same time they did 1AA, the extra bowls would have gone away already

    Probably a better result than USC vs Georgia. Tulane at least tries to tackle opponents. 

    This right here. If Tulane gets blown out in a quarterfinal game, people will overlook it because they aren't expected to be able to beat a Pac-12 team. But if that USC game had happened as part of a playoff, how many people would stand up and say this proves the point of having a playoff instead of a 4 team invitational? 

    G5 teams would have access and I think that is the only argument that needs to be fought now. One token team in from G5 (let's be honest, all G5 champs are in) is not a bad start, but some more G5 teams that are better than the overrated preseason #10-25 need to have access as well.  #MACTION

    That's a big improvement. If you have to have that wraparound striping it has to be red to work. Maybe get rid of the blue trim on the numbers too. 

    Maybe make all the numbers red. IT bothers me for some reason.

    Based on some Oregon players using white game helmets for practice, it seems those will be part of whatever the Ducks wear for the Holiday Bowl.

     

    Maybe. Anymore, some teams take two sets so they can have a clean helmet ready and beat the snot out of the others all week.

    The next team is a young, promising European squad with a lot of potential to make waves in the upcoming tournament, Italy.

    My only complaint is to make the alternate numbers with a better contrast. tri strip flags lend themselves well to this application, but red or white on the navy would work better.

    Sigh.  I wish Army/Navy still looked like Army/Navy and not like a Nike fashion show.

    In my opinion, Nike has done well with the different major Army units. Under Armour reached the last couple years. The airbrushed throw backs to Staubach and company were awful.

    That should be part of the cost of having a league-wide manufacturing deal. If you're taking up exclusivity and responsibility for supplying all 32 teams, you should be able to match what the teams have, not the other way around. I understand not supplying every color for high school or college teams or for off-field gear and whatnot but there's no reason Nike be able to meet the teams' demands.

    Don’t forget, sometimes old manufacturers own the copyright so they have a lot of match work to do

  8. I agree. Bigger fan bases buy more swag so that makes sense to not be stuck with extra material. Smaller schools don’t generally buy or receive extras so to make so much extra would be counter productive. You would think they have color palates that are pretty close.

    So if I'm reading this right, Nike has their own color "library" and are hesitant to provide custom colors?  That sure explains a lot. (If I had to guess, I'd bet that Nike's color library has, like, three greens, but for some reason two dozen dark grays?)

     

    For some reason, I find that annoying.  In a perfect world, the needs of the client should come way before the convenience of the supplier.

    When you get so big, custom colors that won’t get used much aren’t valuable.

    I can't help but feel disappointment, even after giving the new set a bit to grow on me.

     

    Renegades- That's clearly a D, and I don't understand how this logo looks like it does. Had they just kept the last version, the bandana cowboy, then this would have been fine. Instead they bothered to make a whole new logo, but the logo is an R, but also a D... and also a Confederate flag homage? REALLY?

     

    What am I missing here?  No-one else has said anything like that and in 2022, no-one with any sense would try to brand that either.
