BlackBolt3 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Why is Adidas trying to make A&M the glamour school? Y'all just got Miami, and Manziel has been gone for a year, so this makes no sense the way they're marketing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webfooter Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Utah Football Unveils Throwback UniformsOnly part holding back this uniform are the lower thigh stripes since those stripes would look so much better as full-length leg stripes. If there's one thing I dislike about Under Armour's uniform template/design tendency, it's that stupid lower thigh insert that they stick in on nearly every design.

j'villejags Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Utah Football Unveils Throwback UniformsBetter look at the helmet. man UA has done great this yearUnpopular opinion I guess, but I actually kind of like the quad stripes. They give the uniform some character. They'd be better if UA didn't use them for seemingly every one of their damn teams though. That UU logo is awesome. Love the helmet. I'm not crazy about the number font but I suppose I understand the reasoning. I just think a traditional block font would look better with the block logo. Overall, it's a great looking uniform. White/InsertColor/White is hard to mess up and looks sharp when done right.They should have gone with a University of Utah Utes 'UUU' just to really set it off.

swilson160 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I've got a bad feeling about this.AggieFBLife @aggiefblife 19h19 hours agoYou've gotta ball like us to live like us. 8.7.15 #12thMan #teamadidas adidas Football US, AggieFBLife, Kevin Sumlin and 2 others"The new Texas A&M uniform features the latest in magnetic striping technology. Players can use their jersey to pay for their purchases instantly at thousands of stores, making them 27% faster than uniforms that require players to pay in cash."

seattlesonicsofsacramento Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Utah Football Unveils Throwback UniformsYou know what? Under Armour's quad stripes have grown on me. I think they're a visually distinct way to include striping on pants, one that UA's boldly claiming. Beautiful throwbacks too. Utah's such a great-looking school. (Still hope we crush them in the opener.) Why is Adidas trying to make A&M the glamour school? Y'all just got Miami, and Manziel has been gone for a year, so this makes no sense the way they're marketing this.I mean, Manziel brought A&M out of irrelevance. Regardless of what you think about him as a man or whether he's a flameout in the NFL or not, he's the sole reason A&M is "fire" nowadays. So I guess Adidas figures they'll run with it as long as they can. Now if only the NCAA would allow Drake to become A&M's "global ambassador", we might see a black&gold alt...

The helicopter he uses to show up at high school recruits' games isn't called the swaggercopter for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL_ArchMadness Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I also don't like that Utahs helmet is matte, that and the quad stripes ruin the throwback look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilliesPhan1325 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 The new mach speed template is good and all for JMU, but I just pray its the same for all uniforms. Our white uniforms have been the Mizzou template, then they added the black set last year. I just don't want to see the mix and match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxtrot44 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Utah Football Unveils Throwback UniformsBetter look at the helmet. man UA has done great this yearThe prodigal son returns. Utah actually retired the interlocking U's years ago because there was fear it was "diluting the brand." This despite the logo being on half the license plates and merchandise in Utah. I'm happy to see it back, even if it is only a one off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Germanshepherd Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 UA has always been terrible with pants striping. Tapered stripes, buttstripes and now quad stripes. I don't mind quad stripes, but Full stripes would work sooooooo much better. It's almost enough to ruin the design. Not enough but almost enough. Pants could be way better but the rest of the UU throwbacks look downright fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
