Bowl Mania: Uniform Edition

[Sport]

Yep, those were really nice. If they used those with twill numbers instead of the thick screened numbers they used they'd be the ideal Michigan road jersey.

Also, navy blue facemasks > gray facemasks and no numbers on the side of the helmet > numbers on the side of the helmet

[CrazyAnna]

They should've kept this look. I love the "M" on the pants/sleeves and that collar design. Plus the sleeve stripes on the bottom really compliment the "M".

Michigan alum here. I was on the fence about the Sugar Bowl uniform and still am. Michigan's road uniforms haven't been good for awhile. My all time favorite, Michigan road uniform/jersey were these:

You know, you can say a lot of things about Nike, but you can't say that they aren't capable of making great uniform. Those are fantastic. They should've never switched to Adidas.

Clemson in all Orange

WVU in Navy/White/White

Clemson is for sure doing this because of the orange bowl. The only ways it could be better would be if the Mountaineers wore navy pants.

Navy pants would make this game visibly more enjoyable.

Then there must be a lot of blind squirrels, because Wash St, Washington, FSU, Florida, USC, tOSU, USAF, Army, Navy, UNC, Duke, LSU, Texas, Alabama, Fresno State, BYU, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Iowa, Iowa State, Harvard, Penn St, Rice, Purdue, Va Tech, and many others look pretty damn good to me.

I went ahead and fixed that for you. The crossed-off ones have looks that Nike wasn't responsible for. All of them have classic looks that were around long before Nike.

Might as well cross ISU off the list as well considering it's almost a carbon copy of USC.

I know that is a vague statement meant to include others, but if we are mentioning classy Nike uniforms, please let us not forget about the Tulane Green Wave.

Is it just me, or did Clemson's helmet tonight have that same "pearl finish" that Virginia's Chick-fil-A Bowl helmet had? It could very well be the same helmet they've worn all year, but it seemed (at least to me) that it was a different finish. Looked really nice.

Onetime I searched for that thread where he was the uniform model for 10 minutes. Found it, saved it forever.

Yeah, but Iowa State adopted their current look in 2008 so I'm not counting it with the rest of those schools, who've had their look for decades, save for BYU and Virginia Tech who based their current looks on classics previously worn.

I think Duke's is based on a set worn in the 60s, too.

ESPN just showed footage of the LSU special teams players warming up in plain purple pants with gold Nike logos.

Do the Tigers always warm up in these? Or could they be wearing purple bottoms for the game on Monday?

Go to Google and type in "LSU Football Practice" and hit enter, then click on images and you will see purple pants in almost every picture. So long story short - yes.
