flyersfan Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Mizzou nailed it. I happen to like that italic font, I think it's unique, easy to read, and non gimmicky. This is a fantastic set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upperV03 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 The striping inconsistency, especially between the white jersey and white pants, really bugs the hell out of me. Both sets of pants should have the northwestern stripes, but especially the white pants to match the white jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video only showed gold. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish it was northwestern though It's actually how they used to be (pictures circa 1970): Granted, they only wore gold pants back then and they're not the same as the new ones, but it is a striping combination they wore. Not to mention it's the same thing Auburn does. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8BW14 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Not really crazy about the sleeve stripes for Mizzou. I would have put the tiger logo on the sleeves and the M on the helmets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, Rick Neuheisel held up a classic helmet in his introductory press conference to the delight of fans and to signal a return to form for the program. Arizona's white helmets with the red/white/navy stripe are true classics and should never have been removed from the set. It bugs the heck out of me when schools screw with what I would consider an iconic helmet. Washington, Colorado, and Nebraska using black/purple/silver helmets immediately come to mind. Some things just shouldn't me messed with. To the original point, the new Arizona unis brought a small tear to my eye. Absolutely love they are going back to that look.

I have hoped for a slobbering wolf helmet for a long time and I wish it was executed better, that logo doesn't really pop on red. My understanding is that the use of brick is somehow tied to an endowment made to the school many years ago. They were bequeathed tons of bricks and have to use them. Buildings, walkways, etc...

_RH_ Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 For Mizzou, I don't hate it. I do think the dual stripe look on pants / helmet stripes was decent and unique: They could've done the same pattern on the shoulder area and had something a bit more unique without being overly gimmicky (lose the tiger stripe pattern within the stripes) IMO. Stripes are fine, but would it have killed them to go "gold on black on white" everywhere? They've even gotten the white helmet right in the past (sans diamonds): Assuming they'll eventually go black / white / yellow they'll have different striping on each element. le sigh. And why is it so damn hard to get the stripe widths the same everywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of Oregon the top football schools in college have mostly traditional uniforms with maybe 1 alternate for special occasions. Just need everyone to hop back on the traditional uniforms styles now. If a casual fan can turn on a game and not immediately know who's playing based on the uniforms, it's a bad uniform for that school. I am only speaking for non-top tier teams. These smaller schools go so crazy with the alts that they have no identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are these stripes "right" and the ones unveiled "not right" (meaning the Northwestern stripes, not the obvious difference between white pants stripes and Northwestern stripes)? Keeping the same stripes and changing the colors based on the background color is common. The most common use, actually. The stripes staying the same is also a choice, Florida for example, but not the "correct" way with the other being "wrong". And the pointy stripes were played out. Going back to traditional was definitely a great choice. And the logos on the helmets are decals (as are the stripes themselves), so I wouldn't be surprised to the block M or the "sailor tiger" make appearance during the season. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're saying the white pants should go to the 5-stripe pattern, I agree. Personally I prefer the Florida approach. But they're not following EITHER rule- mixing a 3-stripe pattern with non-matching 5-stripe patterns looks rough. As it is, they're making the same mistake the Chiefs make, IMO. Assuming they'll use gold helmets and jerseys eventually, here are three instances where I think the real thing will look less than optimal: P.S. in that reveal video do the players have striped socks?!
