johnnysama Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Hello, all. Here is something that hasn't been talked about here: Yellow jerseys in gridiron football. How many teams do you know, that have ever used it as a jersey color in that sport? Well, not too many. There hasn't been a team that wore a yellow jersey in the pro ranks in the modern era (since the 1960s), but a few college teams have worn yellow jerseys. - LSU has worn yellow jerseys on and off since at least 1996. - Going north of the border, Queen's University have been known for their all-yellow uniforms. Anything more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnysama Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 ^ Thanks for bringing that up. It is funny, IMO, that yellow is not that popular of a jersey color in gridiron football. A few teams, IMO, can pull it off if it has the right design elements/color combos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapshot Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 The Steelers and Rams used to have Yellow as their primary jersey color, at least going back to the early 60s. I dont know if Wyoming uses yellow jerseys...possibly as an alternate, with brown being the primary.

These were a one off they went with as well. Army "Sprint Football". These were for the 185 pounds and under teams. The varsity team still wore white or black. Navy game jersey. Army-Navy Game. Georgia Tech's mustard unis. Minnesota, though for some reason they wore this against Ohio State who wore GWG. Arizona State, late 1970's I believe.
