Louisville in all black tonight


In 5..4..3..2..1

Recommended Posts

I'm big on the whole "black is beautiful" thing, but those unis don't work, especially with that white helmet. It looks stupid.

Where's the red? A team named for a red bird should have a little bit more of that color among the blackness. And the white helmets look that much more out of place with black jersey and pants. I'd bet the jerseys would look OK with white pants.

In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17.

This should provide a reasonable approximation (though less modern).

Oh, I know it can be done. Maryland and South Carolina have each done it recently, and it looked fine.

BTW, when did Lafayette go black-predominant?

They broke out the black jerseys for the first time against Lehigh last year (posted pictures are from that game). I remember squinting at the TV to see if I was seeing things correctly.

This year they have worn them 2-3 times, IIRC, once with black pants (My first or second post ever was on the monochromes). They have had 6 home games so far this year (7th and last one tomorrow), so I think the maroon and black jerseys are about even right now.

These are terrible. I should have known louisvilles football team would get black alternates. Their basketball team has them. I do think they would be more acceptable with white pants. All black for any team looks hideous. As much as i hate louisville, i must say that their regular jerseys are quite good.
