It'll probably be replaced by a Fallout Boy song.

Sun Devils new black uni with some glow in the dark elements...

Stop trying to copy Madden video games.

Massillon (OH) have new home jerseys, using the F.U.S.E template. They also went with the TIGERS name on the nameplate.

No change for Bishop Gorman (NV) so far, but they wore these white jerseys in their opening game of the year. These were worn last year as well.

Harlandale (TX) are wearing a 100 years decal on the left side of their helmets this season. They're wearing the standard old Washinton logo on the other side. 

Uhrichsville Claymont (OH) switched from Riddell to Under Armour this year. No changes to the pants or helmet designs.

Michigan is one of the top programs in the country who could win the title any given year. You don’t play around with musical chairs for the head coaching role and use the program as a “showcase.” All that will do is breed instability and confusion. Who should the players listen to? They will win all of those games but it’s ridiculous. What a joke.

The fact they should walk all over their opponents is why they're doing this. If it was Wisconsin, Notre Dame and Iowa to start the season they'd have one assistant filling that head coach job for all of the games. Splitting the head coach job for the UNLV job is the one that makes the least sense. We all know they should win by 30, but if I'm UNLV I'd be fired up to ruin someone's day for taking the over on that game.

Not surprisingly, USL fans are blaming the MLS for what has happened to the Loyal.  

I'd say it's on the Loyal for not wanting to join up with the bid. We all knew this was the likeliest to occur.

They recently added the Omaha Beef and Sioux City Bandits from the CIF and are rumored to add the CIF Topeka Tropics as well as a team in Colorado and Texas.

I wonder if that changes with Jax leaving?

So the NAL is done now? 

WUCL and UCL game balls released

Yellow vs Pink reminds me more of Easter than soccer, but it looks decent.

It's funny to using Pogba for presentation photo when he is always injured.

He's pretty enough to get the attention for the release now that Ronaldo is in Saudi Arabia.

Eh. If you're a smaller school that is only going to use the field for football, stitching it into the turf is the most economical option. Also doesn't smear, and doesn't have to be reapplied every week. Also, schools normally don't change their midfield/endzone logos that often

But if your only way to change out the logo is to cut out the turf and insert a different design, you're risking player injury.

Don't think this will be a 3rd jersey on the field, but Austin has a new jersey designed by local skate shop No-Comply.

It's their lifestyle brand. It does look better than the actual home shirt though.

I really wish teams would use front numbers if they're going without a kit sponsor. Without something there, it leaves the kit feeling empty. 

Or at least place their Sevilla wordmark on there.

Also, Skechers are now officially in the soccer boot business!

Arsenal have finally officially, officially released their third kit. 

Juve third

I actually like the three stripes somewhat disappearing into the sleeves. I'm not a fan of adidas requiring them on everything they do. At least with the early MLS teams they made it part of the design instead of something that stood out from the rest of the shirt.

Ball State switching to their "Dancing Charlie" logo at midfield.

This is why schools need to switch to paint instead of stitching logos into the turf.

This seven team playoff nonsense needs to end. Seriously hope they reduce it to top four in the near future.

 

I don't think we'll see it drop that much, possibly top 6. But I hate playoffs where everyone in the league is all but guaranteed a spot.

Are the Gophers the most brand-unaware program in FBS?

Their coach is. It's all about his brand and not the school's. 

Sevilla still without a front of shirt sponsor for the SuperCup.

"Nah these go hard  !" 

 

 

 

Reminds me of these, but way worse! I actually liked the WLAF jerseys for what they were, which was a away to get soccer fans pulled into American football games overseas. I have a Frankfurt Galaxy jersey from that 1995 season, and a Rhein Fire jersey from later on in their existence. Too bad I don't have that version of the Claymores jerseys.

Goodbye from anyone giving a Neymar.

He could still come over in 2 years when he finds out he can't take March off to go to his sister's birthday party.

Messi will probably sit out road games against Atlanta, Charlotte, New England, Vancouver, Seattle and Portland because they all play on Turf and Messi doesn't want to play on turf.

Do we know he'll sit or  are we assuming it? Seeing as they'll probably have to win out to make the playoffs, he'll have to be on the field for some of those games. Busquets and Alba would be in the same boat as well.

Air Force will be continuing APLS uniforms this year by honoring the Doolittle Raiders.  They'll be worn against Navy on October 21st.

 

Nice to see Air Force wearing an Army uniform this year!

I'm mad that I missed that before.

 

I was born in 1967 and grew up in Maryland.  This is what lacrosse uniforms are supposed to look like.  

 

EDIT:  My high school could have very easily worn that Chaos jersey circa 1987,

My high school football team basically wore something similar to that, but in Cleveland Browns colors.

That is a seriously old school lacrosse look.  Is the PLL already doing fauxbacks?

This is the second year for fauxbacks.

The main men involved with last night's United vs Wolves match have been given the week off after not awarding a penalty to Wolves after Onana crashed into a player in the box. 

I was watching the Bandits vs Stars at Wembley. Strangely they put the Union jack on the back of his jersey for some reason. Everyone else wore it on the front left collar. One of the linemen actually wore his Wembley jersey at some time during the 1985 season as well. 

The mockup has a Champion patch on the left sleeve, but some players also wore Speedline jerseys which had a patch on the right and left sleeves. 

Possible hint for when they plan to wear that gold jersey. As long as they go with the red helmet instead of a gold lid it should be a good look.
