HappyBrownie13 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 As I watch Roddy White, WR UAB getting taken #27 overall to the Falcons, I was wondering if anyone's seen the entire new UAB set which they previewed in the Hawaii Bowl. I think they look pretty good and original from the set i saw.Cant find any pics, sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapshot Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 I think this was mentioned around the time of that bowl game, but I don't remember if it was its own post or part of another one.And if I remember my own comment, for a scheme that tried real hard to look very busy, it wasn't that bad.

MJWalker45 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 I prefer their regular green jerseys over these. though I think adding the pants shown here would be even better then plain gold pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacker12 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 As a matter of fact, the jerseys were not supposed to be black. They were supposed to be solid green with the gold trim on the sleeves. I know that from the inside. It only took Adidas 7 days to make those jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhambruiser Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 the greens are nicer looking, i do like the green jersey/gold pant combo...the black jerseys just don't say UAB to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what i wanna know I guess it was because they were supposed to have black cuffs, and somehow they mixed up the order and made most of the jersey black. Adidas has had a history of doing stuff like that. They did something similar to that with our jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyBrownie13 Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 so the question is, are they switching to these uni's or was that just to commemorate their innaugural bowl game? im guessing the former Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams usually give away the bowl jerseys to the players as part of their bowl gifts. Here is a photo of their regular game uniforms. Notice that they are wearing the same pants in this photo as they are in the Hawaii Bowl. To me, that is a good indicator that those jersey were just a special one-game jersey made for the bowl game.
