EA's TeamBuilder isn't necessarily gospel, but they use a burgundy shade for ASU also. Honestly? It's kind of a negligible difference, at best, even for us. But if we're really going to split hairs on this issue, I can tell you from living for three years directly on the Tempe Campus and having to stare daily at that particular shade of red, the color is maroon.

upperV03 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I said this in the main college football uniform thread, but it doesn't hurt to repeat it here. Penn State/Pitt was easily my favorite matchup of the week: Pitt's new road throwbacks looked tremendous, especially against the Nittany Lions' classic home uniforms. There were definitely some other games that looked pretty good, but none of them quite compared to this one IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's been shown on here that color names are sometimes useless in sports. As I recall, Ohio State and Wisconsin use(d) the same shade of red, but OSU called it scarlet while Wisconsin called it cardinal. 29 minutes ago, ckunz said: Week 2 has come and gone so here are my top matchups from the past weekend (no order) Man, the Apple Cup is always such a great looking matchup.

You must be mistaken. This is the University of Montana. The Apple Cup is between WSU and UW. Colors are similar tho. Apple Cup will be played November 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similarly, Nebraska and Kansas use the same shade of red I believe, but Nebraska calls it scarlet, while Kansas calls it crimson.. Also, South Carolina's "garnet" helmets and Alabama's "crimson" helmets are the EXACT same color Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louisville vs. North Carolina Honorable Mentions: Stanford/USC, Georgia/Notre Dame and Arizona State/San Diego State Much like last week's UNC game, it could have been improved with a change in pants. Louisville in red pants would have really elevated that game aesthetically. I like that Notre Dame-Georgia was between two traditional looks, but I don't much care for Georgia's uniforms, especially their road jerseys. I've generally thought the road jersey should essentially be a white jersey made to have as much of a team's main color as possible, and it's always bothered me that UGA used black numbers on the road. I also don't care for their helmet as much as most people. And I'm not sure I'd like a different helmet any better since they've had that same basic look for so long that changing it would feel wrong.

upperV03 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I'm biased as an Oregon fan, but I thought this was a really nice looking game: I wouldn't say it was the best looking matchup of the week, but it was certainly up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germanshepherd Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Texas USC gets top spot this week. Looked great in the '06 Rose Bowl, looks great now. 2nd goes to Colorado State/Alabama because I really, really like the way these colors look against each other. 3rd goes to Ole Miss/Cal, if Ole Miss wore gray pants this game is in contention for the top spot, still a solid matchup nonetheless with the whites. i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimalCookie Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Of course I'm biased as a Texas fan, but UT-USC was easily best of the week for me. And I'm not even a traditionalist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
