FinsUp1214 Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Why in the blue heck is Colorado State wearing grey?? This should've been a really good looking game. I remember as a kid living in Mountain West territory, CSU/Wyoming was usually one of the best looking games in the conference back in the day. Yet another example of a matchup getting inexcusably ruined because someone wanted to be "kewl school". Not that it's the worst offense of even the week, but still. It's the fact that this matchup didn't have to suck, but really does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that the game was on hoping to see Colorado State in green jersey and white pants, but nope they have the out of place grey uniform on. Could've been a 10/10 game, but with those things on the game goes down to a 2/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3D bumper is new this year, as is the Tote Nation stickers for running backs. It's similar to Zone 6 stickers for wideouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j'villejags Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 One of the features on Oklahoma State's new uniforms was the reflective elements on the jersey and pants. I hadn't noticed it with the amount of light that would be present for a game, but you can see it here as they are walking out of their tunnel to take the field.

aawagner011 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 It just keeps getting worse and worse. As a throwback, it would be fine (but still not good considering nearly every game has been a different style). But unless I'm mistaken, they're mixing the throwback jersey with current black helmets and pants. Navy and black? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nike press release says they'll be wearing the gold pants that they wore in the Spring game, so we'll see which ones they actually go with. Hopefully the gold, but most likely it'll be the black.

That's what happens when your brand is "having no brand." Eventually you're just left with nothing. Maybe they ought to try and build a consistent identity.

Navy and black? absolutely love this. prefer the gold helmet like they wore in the spring but black is a nice option too. the black pants and socks gives it a really solid modern "clash" look with the throwback jersey. these things dont tie together in traditional sense but the work together in an unexpected way. its really hints towards a soccer aesthetic more than American football. this is a beautifully badd-ass uniform. can't wait to see it on the field and even if they wear the gold pants, now its a throwback clashing of elements. the pants, jersey, and helmet might look like pieces of a seperate uniform but they all work well together. this overall is still a great uniform because the entire palette of colors and elements (or lack there of really) i dont see Nike/Oregon running out of ideas at all. they've always had consistency with the primary sets, just alternating colors. now we're seeing some different ideas being come into play and it seems like the Webfoots could be another extension here. i could see them coming out one week in the yellow jersey with the green helmet that has the old duck Puddles logo on the sides GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever since Nike started just rolling out new templates annually, Oregon went away from sticking with one look for 3-4 years and now just gets a bunch of one-offs with only a couple that match design elements.
