CLEstones Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Oh geez, that is horrible. Absolute trash. Especially against a rival like USC.I hate when teams with great color pallets add an un-needed color. Purple and gold looks fantastic, no need to add anything.That being said, I guess I can live with a team adding a new color, but they shouldn't be wearing it for conference play, especially if its a rival or if the other team has such a classic look. Additional/alternate colors/uniforms should be used when they are playing mid major opponents - definitely not when you are playing a conference opponent.

pianoknight Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 The NCAA should just restrict all teams to four sets: home, away, white/light and black/dark.I'm also learning to like the NFL's single helmet rule more and more. The garish, contrived helmets kill me more than anything. Why does a team like Kansas need 15 helmets? 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

BenjiJ Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Oh geez, that is horrible. Absolute trash. Especially against a rival like USC.This is especially disappointing to me because when a team like UW, who relies on recruiting southern California, plays in LA, they should where their most "popular" look. And I guess this is what the kids like these days but the new Huskies will have no idea of the tradition that Husky football used to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek94 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Recruits apparently think its kewl.Decently enough this is always used to validate why teams release so much material.I'd be curious to know where uniforms rank in a blue chip recruits list of consideration for who to sign with.

seattlesonicsofsacramento Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Utah is wearing throwbacks this week. I love these. Horizontal stripes on the pants...No objection?I don't see why it's so hard for a school to say, "UA, we would prefer if you just leave the quad stripes blank, to preserve the look of this throwback."I actually can't find any images of the uniform they're basing this throwback on though. I see that they wore a grey version of that UU helmet with grey pants in 1966, but the white helmet came before then. I'm just wondering whether they had matching pants stripes on it or not.

I'm just wondering whether they had matching pants stripes on it or not.I found this on their official site regarding this so-called throwbacks: The Utah football program has unveiled a throwback uniform celebrating decades of Utah football uniform designs. The throwbacks will be worn for the Homecoming game against California on Saturday, Oct. 10. Elements drawn from various decades that are incorporated into the design include: • Interlocking UU logo on the helmet from the 1960s• Font for the numbers from the 1970s • Stripes on the jerseys from the 1970s-1990s. The interlocking UU logo will be featured on the throwback helmet, jerseys and pants. The hashtag for the promotion is #UUThrowback.Replicas of the "Neo Classic" jerseys, created in partnership with Under Armour, will be available at the University of Utah Bookstore and other retail outlets on Aug. 20.

Looks pretty tame for Adi......*Sees Adizero on shoes and gloves*WTF Adidas, WTFNothing says uniform like yellow numbers/logos outlined in red... except the numbers on the side of the helmet, which, inexplicable are void of red.That being said... the gloves appear to be the best part of the uniform. Congrats, Adidas... not a total fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they should require them to be uniform with the rest of the... uniform.I'd be OK with a three helmet max: school color #1, school color #2 and white. There would be exceptions, of course, such as Maryland, as black, red and yellow have a long history as their school colors. Oregon really doesn't need anything other than green, yellow and white helmets, Indiana doesn't need 50,000,000 different helmet designs, etc. etc.That being said, I'm willing to let teams have leeway when it comes to switching decals on those (maximum of) three helmets, but no more asymmetrical helmets. It looked stupid when Boise did it and it still looks stupid now.

martymcfry Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 UW announced a "Salute to Service" game against Utah on November 7. I'm assuming that means they're wearing these white helmets with the stars-and-stripes W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
