oldschoolvikings Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 You're all insane. These are awful. Go Tigers.QFTYeah, I'm not seeing it. I know I'm just gonna get the "yr old-fashioned, dude!!!!" comments but this just looks bland and washed out from all TV shots except the close-ups. And, though I don't like to admit it, a few of the Ducks' looks (you know... the green and yellow ones?) have been growing on me.But this? I guess it looked good in photoshop, but from 90% of the TV game angles? Those colors blow. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCap Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Well the football gods have spoken. This is what you get when you ditch your school colours for three kinds of grey, black, and highlighter yellow.

robbman21 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Does anyone know how the carbon fiber look is achieved on the helmets?? They're NOT actually made of carbon fiber, are they?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 My guess is just a carbon fiber pattern beneath a clear shell. facebook | @thebugcollector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicfurth Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Some of the clips they showed of Oregon this made me looooong for the green. Today was probably the worst national stage look since the infamous Dallas Mavericks trash bag alts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakonius26 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I completely agree with oldschool. They looked okay in Photoshop, but actually on my HDTV they didn't look as sharp as I thought they might, not to mention that most of the game and angles ESPN presented us with, didn't make the uniform pop at all. It was a nice try, but mostly their ensemble seemed faded or washed-out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titanole Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 There is a reason classic looks are classic and so-called modern looks look stupid after time passes. Think about classic architecture versus some of the crap built in the 50's through the 70's that tried to look modern. Or how about the new funky fresh clothes you wore back in the 80's or 90's that you would not be caught dead in now. Too many new and innovative looks fail. Not to be too much of an old fuddy-duddy but Oregon's unis have been a disaster since going to this Nike carnival of horrors. You know, say what you will about America. Thirteen bucks still gets you a hell of a load of mice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I don't get how this was saving the best for last. I mean, these uniforms were horrible, IMO. There were a few uniforms which were actually nice other than the fact that they contained colors that weren't Oregons (I liked the green jerseys with gray pants and helmets in particular). Not only were these uniforms not nicer than the previous ones, they didn't even have an "Oh my God, I can't believe they wore that!" factor. At least if they came out in something so garish that we had to see it to believe it, I could see how that would be considered the best of all by the modern people. But other than the highlighter socks and number outlines, these looked just like the other stuff Oregon has worn this year. I am actually surprised Nike didn't do more.

BBTV Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 If I'm spending a grand on a suit, then I'm going to get something classic that I can (weight fluctuations aside) wear for a long time.For every-day casual wear that I know I'll replace every year or two, why not get what looks good to me now? I don't really care if it's dated 10 years from now, because I won't be wearing it. I don't think that having a contemporary (or even "out there") look is bad just because it gets stale - as long as the team can update enough to where that doesn't happen. Oregon can and does.I accept the argument about building a brand and wanting to be identified with a consistent look over time. I get that. However it doesn't work for everybody, and I think that all of this uni experimenting has actually become Oregon's brand.

Oregon can and does.All well and good. If we're equating uniforms with non-sports related clothing, then you have to ask "is the National Championship game the time and place to wear a suit or everyday wear?" I accept the argument about building a brand and wanting to be identified with a consistent look over time. I get that. However it doesn't work for everybody, and I think that all of this uni experimenting has actually become Oregon's brand.You can't say that the lack of a brand is a brand. You can't replace something with nothing and call it something. The tragic thing? Oregon, this year, is as close as they've been in a long time to having a look that's not only unique, but also good. The wings on the shoulders are unique, but not over the top stupid (like the diamond platting). When they stick with green or yellow helmets, green or yellow pants, and green and white (with the green numbers) jerseys they look good. Not great, but good. Certainly better then some other modern looks out there. It's when they insist on white and grey pants, grey and white helmets, black and white (with grey numbers) jerseys, and an entire set that is completely devoid of any school colours in favour of highlighter yellow that they look like crap.
