LETSGOBLUEBEATMSU Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 It would have been nice if they kept the striping from their normal set. There's no angle that really shows the top of the shoulder area, so it could still be there, but I doubt it. Overall, these aren't as good as the ones from the past 2 years. A shoulder stripe and a helmet stripe would improve a lot, though.It would have been nice if they kept the striping from their normal set.

OnWis97 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Here Paul Lukas just tweeted out a screen grab of itThank you, Wisconsin, for coming out with something that's not over the top or gimmicky and just looks good.I agree. I also like the fact that the coach said in the video that the wanted to add something different and keep tradition intact and they definitely did that with this beautiful helmet. It's not bad looking at all, but I definitely like the white helmet better, rendering this one unnecessary. Something looks a bit "off" about it, but I cannot put my finger on it. Oh well...as people have mentioned at least it's not over the top Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

buckeye Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I wish that Wisconsin would drop the drop shadow on their "motion" W, it annoys me very much, and actually that logo annoys me quite a bit to.

debo0775 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Holy cow do I love that white NU helmet. The purple is a classic look for them, but maaaaaan does the Stormtrooper look work with the mid-chest Northwestern striping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm Chaser Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I think Wisconsin needs to make some changes in their uniform to give them their own identity than they currently have. When Barry Alvarez went to Wisconsin and tried to turn them into a Nebraska of the 1990s they've copied the general idea of the uniform. Would like to see something to separate the two.

I think i've even seen an interview on the BTN where he said his goal was to imitate the look. What's wrong about it, is everything. I think I've run through this at least 3 times now. You can associate the look with Nebraska all you want based on their past success, that's fine, but this misconception that Barry Alvarez became head coach at UW and changed the uniforms to look like Nebraska is just not factual. People misattribute a quote by Barry saying he patterned the program after Nebraska to include the uniforms, when in fact he was talking about building the team around a strong offensive and defensive line with in-state talent and fostering a strong walk-on program and tradition. As was pointed out above, Wisconsin's uniforms have looked the same since the 1970's with very small changes here and there. The only thing Barry changed about the uniforms was replacing a block W with the "motion W." In all acutality, Nebraska has experienced more change when it comes to things like the two stripes and where they're placed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
