guest23 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Does anyone have a picture of bowling green's new helmet? It's on Helmet project, but I can't find it anywhere else.Oh, and:http://www.thebullrush.com/2011/07/green-helmets-in-2011.htmlSome of the ASU practice helmets are quite interestinghttp://www.azcentral.com/photo/Sports/ASU/19695#phototopthank god nike did not do that for the actual helmetmy guess is they are either testing out different looks, using them to denote specific players (seniors, captains, etc.) or just having fun during the dog days of camp...what also caught my eye was the outline on the decals...weren't the maroon forks solid maroon sans outline during the unveiling?

Billy B Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I think Purdue looks pretty bad. Way too simple and they definitely don't need white pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Goooo...that black jersey is going to be annoying. There is nothing going on on that uniform but the annoying flywire on the neck...which is colored gold. something like that needs to be the same color as the base so it goes more unnoticed...terrible terrible uniforms in my book.

twi Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 That green USF helmet is beautiful. I would love to see that shining in the Florida sun. A shiny gold for the logo on the side would make it perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illini1 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Purdue.....http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150269053893129.327212.45646373128yikesReally disappointed that there's no black helmet. Not bad looking uniforms, but what's up with the shoes?Those shoes are just cross trainers Nike gives to the whole team. They aren't going to wear those in games.

TFoA Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Purdue.....http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150269053893129.327212.45646373128yikesAnd Purdue can't even play the "Well, our students, alumni & fans like it, so that's that!" card, because the students, alumni & fans are ting on it as well. Bad job by Nike on this set, but an even worse decision by Purdue to okay it. The mock-ups looked bad, & the finished product confirms the bad job.

Chapeeko Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Yep, as a Purdue fan, I despise these. Purdue was going in the right direction with their previous striping. There shouldn't be a pair of white pants. The only aspect I like is the number font (kinda). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmike Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Yeah Purdue's uniforms look awful, especially the black jerseys with the fly wire on the collar. And the numbers look like they ripped off the Steelers, come on they aren't Iowa.I like what Buffalo is showing so far, guess nike gave them the hand me down font since VaTech doesn't use it anymore but I love their colors.Also like the orange pants for Va Tech, they now have a orange helmet and pants, wonder if they will add a orange jersey in the mix anytime soon.

Sodboy13 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Purdue needs to bring back Joe Tiller. Not to coach, just to teach the team how to dress itself.

evanmaldonado Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I actually like the Purdue uniforms. They're very clean and simple, which usually gets high praise around here. And the flywire is kind of cool... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Purdue somewhat resembles what Colorado would look like during practice. Much too plain for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still MIGHTY Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Eh, there's only a few guys that even have the decals, and it's not the seniors (as LB Vontaze Burfict and QB Brock Osweiler, above, have them). It's an interesting look no doubt (Actually not that bad).But yeah, probably jsut the guys having some fun with practice and the new look. I wouldn't put any stock into it. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Is Purdue's font also the Steelers font?Not quite. There's a serif on the 7, and the 4 isn't closed. There are probably other differences, but I've only viewed the uniforms on my phone. I believe the Steelers just use Futura Bold Condensed Italic.
