So much for originality. The first one I saw was Texas, and I thought "Longhorns Energy" was a play on BDE. Seemed kinda clever and mascot specific. Then I saw the 41 other teams using "energy" and jumped out the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VikWings Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 The names and numbers on some of the nike teams are hilariously small. Looks like they got to CBB before the MLB. It looks especially hilarious on someone as big as Zach Edey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEWJ Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 South Carolina Women just won wearing these: Is this a championship game thing? Seems a lot of people are bewildered by the choice but mainly because Iowa is known for similar color gold (and black). edit: technically it is the color of the gamecock’s beak and legs, I’d think 1 Quote | BROWNS | BUCKEYES | CAVALIERS | INDIANS | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see if anybody has insight as to why this color balance even exists for them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clintau24 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 The South Carolina uniform is their "Cocky" uniform based on the mascot. 3 Quote "I believe in Auburn and love it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate you providing the context, I suppose that makes sense although it still doesn't really feel right for South Carolina to me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This right here is why I'm glad this community exists. Watching the game yesterday, the yellow was throwing me off the whole time. I'm sure most people didn't even really notice it and couldn't find any info explaining why they were using yellow. In theory I guess it's fine and looks decent enough. Just doesn't feel like South Carolina. Reminds me of when the Oregon football team incorporated orange into their uniforms to match Puddles the duck. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fouhy12 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Looks like this is our uni matchup tonight: UConn has made the Connecticut throwbacks their main postseason jersey the last two years, which is a good thing because those jerseys rock. The Purdue uniforms are pretty good, too. 2 Quote fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oregon didn't bother me and now that I know the reasoning, South Carolina doesn't bother me either. As long as there's a legit reason for the added color, why not try it? TCU adding red is another cool example and it compliments their purple/black color scheme really well. They aren't just schools adding random colors like volt/highlighter green, silver, charcoal/anthracite just to be cool and follow the trends.

tscuzzy Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Is it controversial to be annoyed when teams wear non-primary uniform for a championship game? Seems like UConn wearing throwbacks would just breed confusion in the future. Same thing with the nuggets last year and their city uniform. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UConn's "throwbacks" look modern enough that nobody will be confused. There's a big difference between their throwbacks and an NBA city uniform 6 Quote Sorry, I'm on an iPad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
