It shouldn't be a surprise a college team beats the Texans to it, the no fun league has so many obstacles to get through uniform-wise. (Right?)

Yes, like the Titans owning the rights to the name and colors.

But more than that doesn't the league have to approve it, etc?

In the past couple of years the NFL hasn’t had nearly enough obstacles in the way of crappy uniform decisions if you ask me.

Has a college team ever had a throwback/fauxback/alternate to an old pro team? To me, it’s a very sharp uniform, but the team wearing it is a head scratcher…especially with the titans throwback and the possibility of the Texans exploring that or a similar scheme. So, and this is probably gonna be unpopular here, but for me, I’d say cool uniforms, wrong team wearing it.

Might be nitpicking here, but it looks like the Huskers have thinner stripes on this new template than previously. It just looks off. Makes the jersey look emptier.

 

For reference, new on top, old on bottom.

Not the biggest fan of the wolf head logo on NC State's helmets. Not enough red in it for me. Prefer the red NCS logo.

Perhaps an unpopular opinion, but these are dumb. Couldn’t even get the helmet and pant stripes right since they’re a catalog order and were therefore limited in terms of striping patterns.

I wouldn't go quite so far as to say these are dumb. I like them despite the issues. But I absolutely agree with the second part. The helmet and pants stripes are very much "Well the template can do this. If you want it closer to the original, it will have to be custom. OK, the template version is good enough."

Not an old pro team, but Arkansas mimicked the Cowboys back in 2017 for the Southwest Classic in Jerry World. Still think this is a unironically great look for the Razorbacks.

This new scorebug on FOX is god awful. Reminds me of espn2 "the duece"

Still not sure why Minnesota continues to water down a perfectly good colorway with all these unnecessary white elements. They were getting pretty close to something good with their last set.

I would forgive FOX for abetting the downfall of democracy if it would dump that scorebug by tomorrow morning. 

 

It's not even a score "bug," it's a score infestation. What in the actual what were they thinking???

Nebraska's name-on-back font now has SERIFS!!!

There was also that time Mississippi State wore Patriots themed uniforms because they played UMass at Gillette.

It bothers me  so much. And the helmet stripe is just textured for no reason now because they don't even include the end of the oar. Just simplify this :censored: and ditch the white collars forever.

 

Also, I think the Fox scorebug is fun. It's a bit oversized but I don't mind them trying it out.

1. On the previous page someone posted Oregon's B/Y/Y (thanks for sharing) and the post got more "thumbs up" than "vomit" responses.  I'm very ashamed of this reaction; maybe this board has lost its way .   Apart from lack of green, I'm bothered by the shoulder patches looking backward.

 

2. While I appreciate UH "Oilers", I can't look at that without seeing the atrociously mismatched stripes.  If you're not going to match the originals, at least ensure your elements match each other.

 

3.  Keep those "one team dressed up as another" examples coming... I'm not sure how I feel about the concept, but it's unique!

Watching Mizzou last night, and I gotta say, I like the switch to the white numbers and the addition of the MIZZOU word mark. Mizzou not having yellow numbers made me feel uneasy at first, but the white really helps the balance. 

 

It's reminds me a lot of when the Blues went from yellow numbers to white. While I feel strange about the Blues veering from traditional yellow numbers, the white has really grown on me.

Then there's Notre Dame wearing Packers-styled jerseys for their game in Chicago against Wisconsinbecause becuase it was originally slated to be in Lambeau.
