LAWeaver 948 Posted September 16, 2015 I can only imagine the jersey snapping back like an elastic band when he released it.Oof. I cringed thinking about that. That's gotta hurt coming back. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Curtos07 116 Posted September 16, 2015 Did anybody else notice Michigan wearing a darker shade of maize this past Saturday vs Oregon State? It's the first thing I noticed when I turned on the game. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sport 13,776 Posted September 16, 2015 I thought that too. It's hued more towards orange and less towards green like it was. Or the light is playing tricks and nothing's changed. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WavePunter 2,374 Posted September 16, 2015 Yeah, it was borderline neon for a while, but I have felt like that's been reeled in for a few years now, but yes - it does appear to be more "athletic gold" than it did in the past 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MJWalker45 5,495 Posted September 16, 2015 Did anybody else notice Michigan wearing a darker shade of maize this past Saturday vs Oregon State? It's the first thing I noticed when I turned on the game.I think Harbaugh has truly gone in and demanded what the uniforms should look like. It's refreshing to see a coach give a damn about how his team looks. Especially when other schools just hand Nike or adidas their bank info and accept random one off uniforms that look like they were designed by kindergarteners at nap time. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brave-Bird 08 1,704 Posted September 16, 2015 To me, Michigan yellow should have that hint of green. I also think the blue looks darker here too. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FiddySicks 11,048 Posted September 16, 2015 Did anybody else notice Michigan wearing a darker shade of maize this past Saturday vs Oregon State? It's the first thing I noticed when I turned on the game.I meant to post this on Saturday, but that was an absolutely fantastic looking matchup. Michigan looks terrific and I've warmed up so much to that Oregon State set. Still not a fan of the logoless home helmet, but their road set is solid. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the only way to get a somewhat accurate comparison is to see them both in the same setting. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andycumbee19 481 Posted September 16, 2015 Pretty sure that's just because it was overcast all day at the Big House. As it is, I didnt think the maize looked any different.Here's the TD run from the picture in question.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5Qc15nQbN0Now, at Utah two weeks ago, the maize on the helmet looked REALLY athletic goldish, but that was during sundown. After the sun went down, the maize looked normal. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CLEstones 628 Posted September 16, 2015 Call me crazy, but I like those jersey. I am glad the pants are solid. I think that is the make or break of the uniform. If the pants were patterned, then it would be way too much. I also like that they numbers, collars, stripes, and pants all match. It adds continuity to the uniform.The only change I would make is probably changing the white to purple with a white outline. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerrylawless3 153 Posted September 16, 2015 Here is the problem the pants are patterned, too. It's really hard to tell on the white, but there are matching purple and gray pants. This is truly one awful look. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clintau24 1,536 Posted September 16, 2015 The white uniforms aren't patterned. The purple details on the uniforms are, though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gdu 160 Posted September 16, 2015 The white uniforms aren't patterned. The purple details on the uniforms are, though.This. The purple and grey helmets, shirts and pants are frogskin. The white helmets, shirts and pants only have frogskin on the purple numbers/trim. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mingjai 1,027 Posted September 16, 2015 To me, Michigan yellow should have that hint of green. I also think the blue looks darker here too. Exactly. Maize should be different than athletic gold. Here's Michigan versus Minnesota from 2004 illustrating the difference between the two shades: 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frosty06306 176 Posted September 16, 2015 NCSU will be wearing Red/White/Red vs ODU... with black facemasks. They closed the season 3-0 featuring the red helmets and black facemasks, but what looks better IYO's? White or Black? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BenjiJ 91 Posted September 16, 2015 Washington is wearing chrome-purple-gold on Saturday. That will be a first. Usually when they wear the chrome it is without the gold pants because they said they clashed. But they did get new gold pants last year, so maybe it will look better. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
