NCAA Arena Football Concepts: 246/384 - Bucknell Bisons

[CLEFAN94]

YES!  MTech looks fantastic! 

[heavybass]

Another Division 2 side in Michigan you say? Well why yes I can provide.... there's a lot of Black coloured teams so I needed a way to create a palette cleanser and I found said team.

NORTHWOOD TIMBERWOLVES

Seeing your amazing concepts, I wish the NCAA could do this for real.

Yeah but there's one thing the NCAA can't do... and that's effort.

[heavybass]

Next up in the Wolverines division... is a team that is not from Michigan and is only there because the division wants to go to Indianapolis.

INDIANA STATE SYCAMORES

[heavybass]

And now for those that love low division teams we have a Division 3 team today... I know Division 3 teams are rare and sparce but I couldn't resist with this one.

OHIO NORTHERN POLAR BEARS

[heavybass]

Might as well drop this as well... as we go back up to Division 2.

OHIO DOMINICAN PANTHERS

 

So this was a redesign after I saw that there were too many black themed teams in Michigan and I wanted to give this team an overhaul... so I went ahead and added charcoal to the list and made that the primary color.

[heavybass]

And now the last team of the Wolverines division as well as the North section for now.... for we will be going through South next time.

FINDLAY OILERS

[heavybass]

Now then I believe the waiting ends.... ladies and gents we begin the next batch of the South teams with a team that is well known for essentially being plain but that's the point for when it comes...

TO THE BLUE HOSE!

 

Presbyterian are well known for this, they are well known for being plain... that is the MO... I figure I would honor that plainness.

[heavybass]

Next up from the Coast division is Presbyterian's arch rivals and that too is a unique nickname.

STETSON HATTERS

[heavybass]

Next up is a VERY old college whose origins trace back before the American Revolution.... we are looking at a VERY old college that is located in South Carolina.

COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON COUGARS

 

Tradition rules here and most traditional colleges are ruled by a traditional kit... like these... except I am not putting gold pants on this team, nah it wouldn't work for the Cougars.

[heavybass]

Moving onto the next team in the Coast Division.... a team in the FCS.

CHARLESTON SOUTHERN BUCCANEERS

 

It annoys me that teams that aren't willing to commit the bit are too lazy to fully commit themselves to a branding... the logo was borrowed from @NH4 as his thread did do the CSU Bucs ((which should be followed might I ask because the task is herculean)).

The pants are traditional which is the diviation.

[heavybass]

Man I wasn't expecting the thread to be busy and popular... things you don't expect but also there are teams you don't expect... take this one for instance.

CLARK ATLANTA PANTHERS

 

Another Division 2 school only this time, the use of Silver is actually works here... I don't like using white most of the team and for a side like this, Silver is the off colour.

Luckily its not grey, College Football has a grey problem whilst the NFL has a very obvious problem with the colour black in kits.

STETSON HATTERS

This is just Stetson's actual football uniform san-number outlines. Also, the D is backwards on one side of the Ohio Dominican helmet.

1, I mean yes it is their actual uniform but it's a good uniform.

 

2, Also yes the D is backwards.... BUT that D is meant to be paw shape afaik.

And finally in this division we have a team I admire for it's scheme, color and identity is shapened and bolded now that they have escape a very :censored:ty conference and into the Fun Belt where they belong.

THE THUNDERING HERD OF MARSHALL!

Marshall, home of elite athletics forged in the fires of the tragedy of 1970 are a fun team to design  and now that they belong in the Sun Belt... fantasic football will be a given.

Would you be against using their current “M” helmet logo instead of the one you use here? To me it’s just a cleaner look. If not it’s perfectly fine, just a thought. 

[heavybass]

 

So I decided to change the M in Marshall to a bigger M and not have the context of the Herd.

[heavybass]

Now then good thing that Griffin made a comment because his logo is a peach... the last team in this batch made a move up recently to the Peach conference in Division 2 and really another unique identity that doesn't play football you say? Let's change that.

USCB SAND SHARKS

 

The first primarily baseball focused school with an emphasis on basketball coming up needs to take advantage of the uniqueness that is of their primary Sand Colour.

[CLEFAN94]

Marshall looks MUCH cleaner, and USCB is very unique! Well done! 

[heavybass]

Moving onto the Southeast Division where this team I originally did a long time ago.... well this was a team I misunderstood for a few reasons.

1, This was a team that moved up to the FBS aka it's joining the Crappy USA conference... this was before Kennesaw State was added which makes sense in hindsight.

2, I misuderstood the color scheme for this school... they had two defining colors that they don't use and they are mostly another red and white kit, so at the time I figured I would break what I normally do and focus on those two colors.

Here is the end result.

JACKSONVILLE STATE GAMECOCKS

 

Yeah those colors I mentioned are on the pink shade... and besides more teams should use this pink shade, it has the benefit of intimidating teams if used correctly.
