It actually looks better than I thought it would. Still... not a good look.

Those sleeve stripes are infuriating.

They make a point of absolute consistent striping everywhere else and then when the stripes actually are on an orange background, like the helmet and pants, they don't make them consistent. So annoying.

Florida's blue looks a bit more purple to me, honestly.

Oregon's helmets are beautiful and have a really nice shine to them.

In other news, is this not one of the best looking weekends of college football in a long time? It's gonna be tough to pick a best looking game. Tennessee - Oklahoma is an early contender for me.

Whew... So far so good for UCLA's (insert pound key here)Uncaged uniform...although we haven't seen the nameplates

The gold looks great. The uniform would be very nice if it wasn't for the diagonal white lines on everything. But that absolutely ruins the look.

Those Oregon helmets really sparkle don't they? It's like Lisa Frank, but for boys.

Yeah, the internet pics didn't do them justice. They sparkle green under the lights, not the black&grey noise filter that it appeared like.

McNeese St and Incarnate Word are making a case for worst uniform matchup of the weekend:

Maybe it's a good thing that McNeese St.'s game vs. LSU was canceled.

What did everybody think about Virginia Tech's helmets?

Butt ugly

I watched the entire game and couldn't quite figure out what color they were supposed to be. It was like they were going for a cross between their two main colors. I mean, I know it was orange in theory, but...

I know Lisa Frank was *meant* for girls, but I'm a (heterosexual) guy and, growing up in the '90s, I always thought their stuff looked cool. I think I even had a couple LF folders. Then again, I'm a sucker for bright colors.

I wonder... did Ohio State pull the ol' switch-a-roo and promote the Nike Diamond uniforms to full-time status without saying anything? Last week, I could probably understand as it was a prime-time game and they wanted to use an alternate. But a 3:00 game against Hawaii? I'm not complaining, as I like these much better than the previous set. It does seem odd that they're 2-for-2 on the "alternate".

No. It's not a permanent change; just coincides with the unveiling of the national championship banner. They wore the white playoff uniform last week because it was a big game and this set has replaced the Rivalry set as the alternates.

We were wearing alternates today?! I guess I just noticed Hawaii's alts so much that I missed ours.

I'm definitely a homer, but I think these VT uniforms look sharp with this helmet. It might be the maroon facemask that makes it look so good. Usually the white helmets have white facemasks and that's a little too much white for me. But I'm digging this. I usually hate the one-time helmets we decide to throw on.

Turkey feathers on the back of the helmet. That's what those stripes remind me of. Apropos, no doubt.

IMO the Orange VT helmets suffer the same problem as Michigan State: not enough contrast.

IMO the horizontally-striped "Navy" VT helmet doesn't work because the rest of the uniform has vertical stripes.

I don't mind the "bass boat " Oregon lids.

Exactly. And the "modern" finish and orange on orange logo don't fit at all with the rather classic uniform...

Nicholls State is opening their season tonight @ UL-Monroe. Even though we're outfitted in Adidas catalog unis, we've improved our look IMO. Added a gray stroke to the numerals and added "Nicholls" to the chest. Also switched back to the metallic painted shells versus the matte gray we went with last season.

Why is the shoulder stripe so small?
