Are these going to be helmet stickers? The whole thing is really bizarre and seems to promote individual players over the team. Honestly, I hope it ends up on the helmet or as a jersey patch. This is a fantastic evolution of merit decals without feeling like they're copying Ohio State/FSU/etc. They all look similar enough that from afar they look like a standard piece of the uniform, but different enough that the individual players have something to show off. I generally lean towards classic when it comes to uniform, but this is something incredibly creative and new. 5 https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayMac Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I love the idea but I hope it is a patch on the uniform. It would be jarring to see mismatching helmets for a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a neat thing to do as a jersey patch for Senior Day, since their "family history" would be completed at that time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It bothers me that they changed their font to look exactly like Virginia Tech. 3 Everyone loves a roundel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also feel like the alt. should have orange-white-orange UCLA stripes. I DON'T get why it's different.. it should match the ORANGE helmet.. there's actually even less reason to make it different..

Never underestimate the power of individualized trinkets to help promote esprit de corps amongst the troops--especially amongst the college-age populus. (Shoot, the company I started out with out of CDL school gave us the option of having our names put on our trucks, with certain "badge" decals alongside it--and even at 28 I found that cool. Gives a sense of "ownership" one way.) 11 hours ago, MJWalker45 said: That would be a neat thing to do as a jersey patch for Senior Day, since their "family history" would be completed at that time. It wouldn't shock me if they become a permanent patch on their jerseys a la the NFL's captain's patches. The Army West Point Cadet Black Knights does this from time to time with their uniforms, or did for a while, with certain unit patches. Whatever the case, I'm willing to bet dollars what they just created at UCF is gonna spark off a trend all across CFB if not college sports period...I can see it now. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4_tattoos Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Maybe those personal UCF crests should go on back of the helmets. Sorta like how Fresno State has the green V San Joaquin Valley decals. Does Fresno even still have green V decals? Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerrylawless3 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 New black helmet for Vandy. StarV and anchor stripe are replaced with throwback script and Nashville skyline. There were rumors months back that a full throwback uniform was on the way, but Covid my have thwarted those plans and left them with just the decals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also weird that Vandy uses a naval theme but their color choices (e.g., gold helmets, gray pants worn last year) look like something Army would wear. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrylawless3 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Closer look at the helmet. Previous black helmet was matte, new lid is gloss with some serious gold flaking (which in itself is a throwback to when the black helmets were first revived years ago). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tron1013 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 As anticipated, South Carolina has updated the striping on the white helmet to match the previously leaked new white jerseys and the fauxback white pants worn initially last season. They’ll get pasted this weekend in the Swamp but at least they’ll look good 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrimalCookie Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Love those South Carolina uniforms. They're consistently one of the best dressed teams in the SEC. As for Florida, I'd expect them to counter with either O/B/W or O/B/B. Either would look good, but I'm hoping for white pants. Keep it classic for the first home game of the season.

OHK Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Looks like the striping is also applied to the collar. Really clean look, this is a timeless set for us. If we could only remove that faux mesh pattern from the black jersey numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
