Bowl Mania: Uniform Edition

Allow me to reiterate my love for team logos that incorporate a rose for the Rose Bowl. I wish every team that gets there could do that.

[Sport 14,640]

I like Wisconsin's rose bowl modification though it is irksome that they can never get the stripes or W's on the helmets to match the red on the rest of the uniform. The facemask, which is right there, is bright red, but their decals are dark red if not burgundy.

Nebraska doesn't have the same problem, there's no reason Wisconsin should.

They look like the socks UA came out with to rival Nike's Elite sock for basketball.

Agreed, which is one of the many reasons they bug me.

Those annoys me too, elites have a cool look to them, these just look like a bland attempt to change something.

Also, it bothers me when UT mixes black and orange, black cleats white accents/ black socks is fine, but when the orange and black mix like it does on those socks it just really bothers me

It drives me crazy, but the players love black. I loved the white/desert orange (Nike's name for focal/burnt orange) shoes and socks Nike had been giving Texas (which they still wear with road whites).

Notre Dame is bringing back the name on back for the Champs Sports Bowl today.

Notre Dame is bringing back the name on back for the Champs Sports Bowl today.

And they look just fine. The Irish might as well go full-time with them.

Now would also be a good opportunity for Penn State to ditch the NNOB's.

Notre Dame's pants look awful next to FSU's.....glad FSU still uses the metallic pants. Khaki looks terrible, especially with the shiny helmet.

[MJWalker45 6,049]

Notre Dame's new tradition is reserving names for bowl games.

[DPV713 16]

I never really want to watch Notre Dame, but after Air Force lost me confidence points, I had to watch FSU play (and hopefully win). Damn is their look ugly. Flat gold pants should NEVER be worn with the shiny helmet (then again, the shiny helmet shouldn't exist IMO). Add me to the bandwagon that hates ND's look.

[Kramerica Industries 2,090]

I know it's dark navy, but ND's jerseys have looked especially black this entire game.

[Kevin W. 1,989]

Washington is wearing white helmets. No idea if it's the same ones they wore earlier in the year.

Generally the same helmet, but with a purple W logo, instead of the flag-themed logo on the helmets from earlier this year.

Yeah they did look dark.

One thing I didn't like was the gold outline on numbers and the ND logo. They don't give much of a contrast and could've been dropped. That and the mismatching stuff didn't look good.

The Alamo Bowl looks great, however. If only one team brought colored pants and it would be even better. Baylor has matte helmets, too.

[RHSNEYES 3]

Neither team wearing any gold? Disappointing.

[GriffinM6 1,465]

I like both helmets for the Baylor-Washington game. Baylor has a matte green helmet with a white "BU", and black facemask. Washington is wearing a white helmet.

Baylors facemask is dark green.

[thespleenenator 71]

Washington looks good in the wihte out, but I don't like Baylor. The white pants seem out of place.

[gdu 160]

Both helmets are worse than their standard helmets.

[infrared41 9,504]

I really like Washington's look. Baylor's look isn't working for me at all. The matte finish helmet looks really bad.
