In those cases those companies paid to have naming rights of the stadium. It seems the NCAA is allowing schools to open up sponsor logos on the field without having to rename your stadium or field. I know many schools would have their fans revolt if their 100 year old stadium had to be named after a sponsor but would only be somewhat pissed if a company logo was on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With green and athletic gold, there's Baylor and... North Dakota State? With green and vegas gold, there's Notre Dame (alternates), Colorado State, USF, Charlotte, UAB. 2 Quote POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the fields don't start looking like this, I think most fans won't even notice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're all hoping that continues, but then again we have uniform ads in MLB, NBA and the NHL now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The on-field and jersey money will probably go to the schools whereas the ad money goes to the networks who already have promised their money to the conferences. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Cunningham Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Nice. That looks like Minnesota. And exchanging elements between the three colors doesn't appear that it would be terribly offensive either. Frankly, I was surprised that PJ Fleck was still employed by Minnesota based on those, but then I saw the oar stripe was still there, and then they were holding a paddle in the video. Ha. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DouglasQuaid Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 The new Minnesota look is way better, wish they'd get rid of the helmet stripe though. Also it bugs me that the stripes dont match. The OG Uniforms would be perfect with the new pants. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NH4 Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Some more pictures. The stripes are beautiful but it’s bugging me that none of them match. Overall an insanely huge upgrade tho 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact they haven't worn the gold jerseys in 4 years is a sacrilege. But at least these are in the the new EA game instead of the previous set. The last time Minnesota wore each jersey color is below: Maroon: Dec. 26, 2023 vs. Bowling Green Gold: Nov. 20, 2020 vs. Purdue White: Nov. 18, 2023 at Ohio State Black: Oct. 28, 2023 vs. Michigan State I actually don't mind the pants stripes not matching the sleeves as long as the colors aren't swapped. The only bad thing about this is that they'll roll out some version of anthracite or black, and they'll probably keep using mismatched logos on the helmets. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSeaHeath Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Might be in the minority about the stripes, but sometimes I feel it can look overly matchy if it's the exact same. It's a good look for Minnesota but I wish the numbers had outlines on them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 I want to like them, but that striping inconsistency ruins it a bit for me. If the helmet stripe matched the pant stripe it would be much better, but they just have to have that "oar stripe" in there. The "Row The Boat" drivel is still an eyeroll. I hate how PJ Fleck has infected that program with his self-marketing. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
