College Football 2012 Season

Anyone see Cal in white helmets, blue jerseys, white pants? Woof.

My link

i believe thats the first time we went with that look;

id rather us use the blue helmet

[TFoA]

new arkansas uniforms. i actually kinda like these

The helmet is REALLY nice. The whole uniform would be nice, but the gradients just take the entire uniform down.

The Helmets and uniforms are great, but it's just that god gradients that bring it down. Hey Arkansas, it isn't the 90's anymore.

Man that helmet is really really nice. Is that like a metallic matte?

[14er]

That Arkansas set frustrates me. Parts of it are great, but I just can't overlook its flaws. What I would like to see happen:

1) Loose the gradient within the numbers

2) Decide on either black or silver as the accent color but not both

3) Make the Hog logo on the hip face forward

4) Move the SEC logo higher up the shoulder to relieve the clutter at the chest area

All of that said, the helmet finish is great, as is the the razor shoulder design. I want to like it more than Arkansas' previous set, but I'm not sure that I can.

How long has Louisville been wearing their current set? They're pretty sharp. I stopped keeping tracking of Louisville after the Brian Brohm era ended.

Since last year. The Brian Brohm uniforms are my second favorite Louisville uniform set after the current. I'm glad UofL keeps their stripes rather than a Clipart wing.

Here's the Brian Brohm set and the current set for comparison.

@Raysfan12

Yeah those were Brohm era unis were great. They did a much better job with that template than Northwestern did. My only small gripe with the current set are the white facemask.

Between the Brohms and the currents, didn't they wear some weird design for a few years?

Yes; It was the years Kragthrope was there and I don't want to talk much about it. I can only say it was embarrassing

These are what I consider SDSU's best uniforms--they bring up bad memories of Marshall Faulk running wild on BYU:

Those helmets are as SDSU as it gets. Love them. Stripe overload though but a simple removal of some would go a long way. Much better than what they have now which doesn't seem SDSU at all to me.

[keynote]

Did anybody notice the gradient on Bethune-Cookman's helmets?? Imo they are awesome along with Florida A&M's and Tennessee State's lids

I don't mind the gradient, but what's the point of the weird shapes around the monogram? Is that part of the logo or just shapes added to look like an abstract football or something?

Perhaps it's an "M" for the school's founder, Mary McLeod Bethune.

Louisville has one of the least objectionable uses of the TechFit template.

Yeah I feel like their stripes look good nearly always. It makes you wonder what's going on there that doesn't result in this:

[Cujo]

And yes, a blue and silver-clad Air Force team sure is a welcome sight!

If only they were closer to this set, though...

As far as their uniforms go, they're pretty underrated. Throughout the years, Air Force has always kept it clean and stellar.

I'd like to see straight-ahead pictures of both jerseys to judge, but to me it looks like the Nebraska jersey is running into the same problem that UCLA's is: the stripes are too high. On that point of the sleeve, the stripes get cut off.

I could be totally wrong, though.

It looks so much better without the gradient.

Huh? The issue most people have with that part of the techfit template isn't that the stripes are too high (although they prob are because there are no true sleeves) it's that the stripes get incredibly distorted.

Louisville is a flagship school, so it makes sense that they get a custom uniform design instead of the wing design from the team catalog that many other bird-themed schools have unveiled.

I explain this all the time, but the sleeveless cut of the jersey (seen on Nebraska players here) results in the warped stripes. The sleeved cut (on the Louisville QB above) eliminates this problem and gives the uniform full stripes as well. The Louisville players who wear the sleeveless cut generally end up with warped stripes like any Nebraska or UCLA player.

Sorry, I should have made myself clearer. I meant that the stripes are distorted (or in some cases cut off) because they're forced to be so high by the cut of the jersey.

A few modifications and Oregon could be perfect. I like kelly green just as much as I like thunder green so I used a medium between the two.

One small change makes the entire uniform better.

The modified uniforms look much better, but which one small change were you referring to? I count three (facemask, darker green, no number outline).

Like it but think the contrast on the helmet is too much. I'd actually like a more metallic yellow wing on the yellow helmet. More of a subtle tone on tone look.
