I was thinking Any Given Sunday myself.

College football needs to stop the insanity on all of these wild and wacky uniforms, even if the uniforms they wear is a one-time thing.

Agreed. The NCAA needs to lay down some ground rules, first of which is eliminating the use of non-school colored uniforms.

The NCAA shouldn't say anything about this.

If the students and the donors don't like something, they'll vote with their feet (and their wallets).

Some teams are about tradition, others aren't. That's fine.

OT, but Miami's orange looks like the color of watermelon on TV.

As long as their is a chance to make money, the NCAA is not going to change a thing. Just like converting from the BCS to a playoff. Money talks!

Yes, they should. If the NCAA doesn't draw a line then no one will and Phil Knight and Kevin Plank will continue to run roughshod.

School colors/non-school colors don't bother me as long as it looks nice. Its when a school pulls of a monstrosity like Maryland is doing tonight that I have a problem with. I'd love to see the Buckeyes show up in Ann Arbor wearing a blue/maze version of their OSU uni's and lay the smack down on the Wolverines....insult to injury, love it.

IF ONE IS CONSIDERED RACIST, THEN BOTH MUST BE CONSIDERED RACIST.

BOTTOM LINE: NEITHER ONE IS RACIST.

The problem is that there is yet to be a uniform lacking in school colors that looks good. I mean, why bother even choosing official colors if you're going to ignore them? Tradition exists for a reason.

So was I.

I'll say this, though: just when you thought nobody could out-Nike Nike, UA went and did just that. And that's not a good thing, either.

But that is just in your opinion. Everyone I've talked to that isn't on this site said they loved Oregon's uniforms Saturday. I really liked them. I read members' posts talking about how they liked the uniforms. Just because you have a problem with teams' control on tradition doesn't mean the whole nation feels the same.

Maryland's uniforms, even tonight's, crazy as they may be, have one leg up on Oregon. At least Kevin Plank and his UA cohorts still know what the term "school colors" means.

If this isn't considered "baiting" I don't know what is. Kevin, we understand that you don't like Oregon's liberal usage of non-school colors. A lot of other people on this board don't too, including me. But the rest of us don't feel the need to bring it up in every college football-related thread in an attempt to start an argument.

You have to at least admit the flag helmets are really cool. Use those full-time. It's not like they're USC or Notre Dame or Michigan. Could go on to be a classic.

♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫

Do you see me claiming that my opinion is anything more than just an opinion? I have a right to express my opinion and I have just as much a right to claim that others' opinions are wrong, and others have the right to say the same to me.

A clownsuit is a clownsuit, and both Oregon and Maryland are guilty of wearing them.

Agreed. I love when schools use a unique helmet design that reflects the mascot, uses the logo creatively, and/or says something about the region.

Those helmets and the Turtle Shell helmets are the best in their new collection. I would rather see them wear those compared to those matte black logo-less helmets.
