Pardon the ignorance but since when has Michigan had that yellow design/piping crap on their white jersey?

[Mingjai]

Virginia Tech went with White/White/White combo today

I think it's part of the annual VTech white out.

I don't know, five years?

Notre Dame went with the stars and stripes theme as well. They have the ND logo on the back of their helmet bumpers that feature the flag inside

Well the ones they have now that have the shoulder piping and "tusk", they've worn ever since 2008, before they switched to adidas they had Nike jerseys that also had some yellow piping but it wasn't as noticeable.

Virginia Tech went with White/White/White combo today

I thought they looked really nice in those uniforms. Too bad that the all-white combo will also go into the trash heap with the Pro Combat unis, due to poor performance.

That's where they both belong. I don't get the sudden trend in the last year or two for more teams to look like Star Wars storm troopers. I don't get the recent new white helmet trend (Arizona, Cincinnati, Florida, South Florida, Virginia Tech, just to name the few that I can recall off the top of my head).

I like Virginia Tech's retro white jerseys and pants, but stick with the maroon helmet, please.

Found this in the comments section for today's game on nunesmagician.com. Looks like the Orange may have 9/11 patches for tonight's game

“kudos to cuse coach doug marrone whose staff is wearing 911 patches,,,cuse lost 31 that awful day including one of Marrone’s teammates”

You do know that before Stoops took over, Arizona only wore white helmets, right?

You know how people often ridicule Oregon for all the uniforms? I think I have decided that Virginia Tech is worse than Oregon. Consider this: Oregon may have a multitude of uniform combinations, but at least they all consist of the same design. Winged shoulders, same number fonts, etc. It is just the colors that are swapped out. Let's look at VaTech.

Standard maroon helmet

White pro combat helmet with stripes

White throwback helmet with state outline and Tech

Black pro combat helmet

White helmet with no stripes

Plus the throwback helmet with the stacked VT logo. Can't recall which color though.

Maroon jersey with orange sleeves

Orange jersey with maroon sleeves

White jersey with maroon sleeves

White pro combat

Maroon throwback

White throwback

Black pro combat

I've also heard they will introduce an orange throwback

White pants

Maroon pants

White pro combat pants

Black pro combat pants

White throwback pants

I think just looking at this list makes me appreciate schools like Penn State, Alabama, Ohio State, etc. At least Oregon, with all their combos, have a single theme. Virginia Tech is out of control. Just make the throwbacks the full time unis with the maroon helmet, no alternates.

I can't be the only one who thinks this, am I?

VT's really been crazy with their uniforms since their first foray into the weird Nike templates back in around 2005 or 2006. That was the year they also got into that dumb fad with one sleeve being completely orange.

I just wish that they would just go to the Maroon helmets & throwbacks (like they said they would in preseason) & be done with it. Hopefully they've gotten the crazy out of their system for now.

They have switched to Throwbacks full time this season so all the ones in bold they don't wear anymore. Also I don't think they will be wearing last season's Pro Combats since they got new ones this season, and those probably won't be worn again either. But your right Virginia Tech has a lot of uniform options.

couple of observations for the day.

- I really like South Carolina's all-garnett look. I don't like the fact they beat my Dawgs.

- Boston College's pants look mustardy yellow, more than gold. almost as bad as Georgia Tech's pants were a few years ago

- speaking of GT, their new road uniforms are horrid. They really downgraded with their update, even though I love the idea of two different white jerseys. It's the piping crap that really kills it.

- Ohio State's pants definitely are different. I like them. Way better than the matte UGA still uses.

- USF did white helmets vs. UF. Not a superior look in my opinion.

But your right Virginia Tech has a lot of uniform options.

You're right that they've switched to the throwbacks and I presume you're right about never seeing either of their Pro Combats again, but at the same time, just looking at the grand scheme of things, it's ludicrous to think how many combinations they have worn over the past year. To think we've seen 6 different helmets, 7 jerseys, and however many pants has absolutely watered down their image. Just look at your school- Bama. Before they come onto the field, you know what they'll be wearing. Even their Pro Combats are pretty much the same as the normal uniforms, and that goes to show you how much the program respects the school's tradition. When schools begin wearing all multiple alts in addition to their normal uniforms, they lose the special meaning. At that point, it's simply a matter of dress up instead of earning the right to wear a special jersey.

I liked Louisville's, stripes and logo...

also today Utah wore red jerseys/white pants for the first in who knows how many years!

Yeah I get what your saying lol, last season all of those options were available to them except for the black Pro Combats, but your right, they are like the Cleveland Cavs of the NCAA haha, and they have just as many options as Oregon.

[Red Wolf]

That white Virginia Tech helmet might look good if it had stripes. I rarely like stripeless white helmets, especially with a white facemask. If nothing else, make that maroon.

Also saw that Louisiana-Monroe is yet another Adidas school to switch to the template with the tentacles coming up from the bottom that Arkansas wore for a couple of years and that Cincinnati, Michigan, and Mississippi State currently use (and I think Bowling Green). Still looks disgusting.

[Brave-Bird 08]

huge downgrade for ULM too. For those who have actually seen that team, lol, they had a pretty unique look before they switched to that crap.
