DOech714 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Plain and boring =/= bad. That is where your argument fails.No, there is one and only one exception to my rule.. Penn State uniforms at this: Plain + Boring + Joe Paterno = WINNING! In other words, I love Joe Paterno because he is a classic person and I hope as long as he is there, they never change that uniform and I hope that is at least 10 more years.U do know that they change the jerseys this yearYeah, but that change is so little that it is not a big deal.i know but a change is still a change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Just a side note/thought... do any of y'all think part of the reason Georgia's is bland is due to the font? Look at any of the other NPC sets and the fonts are either the school's standard font or something that is definitively inspired and makes sense with the rest of the set. FSU for example: their Seminole wordmark font, Pitt: notched numbers resonate with Steel industry, Ohio State and Oregon State: both retro inspired. UGA's number font is just generic. No rhyme or reason to it. Should have gone standard block just like usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No rhyme or reason to it. Should have gone standard block just like usual.it just shows the thought and work that went into those 2010 uniforms, and the complete laziness of the UGA design. theres no reason for the shoulder panels to be black. theres no reason for that number font. theres no reason for the wide stripe down the mask except its different. take away the logo and who does the uniform belong to? imposible to answer because theres nothing substantial left. with the others, you take away the logo and the brand is still there because the ideas are so strong GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HedleyLamarr Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 According to the radio broadcast, all of the jerseys say "GEORGIA" on the nameplate instead of having the actual player's names on the back..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazerBlaze Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 Im sitting on the 30 yrd line. They all say GEORGIA. Also the no TV numbers makes it really hard to tell who us who sense there is no names.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Eww, really? Hopefully Oregon's don't all say "Oregon" on the back. Nike really cheaped out this year, didn't they? It's especially horrid for Boise because the uniforms already say "Boise State" on the front in a different font and color.

Guest Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Boise's Pro Combat looks good. I love the all-white look and the fact that it's in school colors and there's no unnecessary gray jersey like last year is a definite improvement. I still don't like the one-sided helmet, though.

oldschoolvikings Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I'm sitting here trying to figure out who looks worse.OK, Boise's is crap (asymmetrical elements on a football uniform have never worked, will never work IMO), but UGA's is complete crap.Here's the problem that Nike (and Underarmor, adidas...) can't seem to figure out. These designs look good in photoshop (well, good if you're into this modern "cutting edge" stuff, anyway), but that very seldom translates to how its going to look on the field. Of course it looks good in Photoshop... that's how photoshop works! It cleans up this sort of imaginary world, fantasy imagery, it makes it almost believable. Then you dress an entire team of kids (fat, skinny, average) in the real-life fabric version... and its a failure.I'm starting to worry about the NFL. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't like the one-sided helmet, though.If Boise just made their look symmetrical, it would be fantastic. The giant Bronco head on the helmet, in both the blue shell and the white shell, looks so much better than what they usually wear. All they have to do is subtract one gimmick and they've got a fantastic modern look.

Maybe have white sleeves on the home jerseys. Make that helmet and the blue bronco head helmet symmetrical and use them in rotation with the standard helmet. Boom. Perfect set for Boise.

Sport Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I say they take the horse head to the bottom of the helmet as if it's rising out of the players' neck around the ear holes and down around towards the back of the neck. That way it would look less like a severed horsehead, which has a dubious place in pop culture ( )Also, use the logo as it's normally colored and for the love of god, put it on the other side of the helmet. It'd be the modern day version of the Michigan Panthers, which you don't see a lot of in football these days. That's the answer to Boise's helmet problem as their current normal helmet is rather generic and uninspired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
