Oh dear sweet baby Jeebus.....

What is the yellow ribbon in support of, again? Tony Orlando?

[tBBP 2,578]

Not just yellow, but highlighter yellow...the same color Nike calls "volt"...and Purdue just happens to be a Nike program...surprised no one's yet put two and two together on that.

This may well be for a noble cause, but it wouldn't surprise me one bit if Nike coaxed Purdue into using volt just to get their "proprietary" color out on the public eye one more time.

Aside from full redesigns/rebrands how much input or effort does nike actually put into helmet designs? I would assume that nike has zero input on most of these crazy helmet tweaks that are outside of a special uni program and the schools are directly responsible. If there's no direct nike apparrel tie in I can't imagine them committing resources to new helmet designs or even decals for that matter.

Purdue wearing volt in 2014 makes sense as that was the color of the year for Nike back in 2011 or so. They've moved on to hyper punch and photo blue.

UTEP has a pretty cool throwback helmet for this weekend, they are describing the facemask as a cream color

That is flippin' awesome

I'm gonna go ahead and say it is 100% purdue desicion. Otherwise the picture would be of the actual uniform. It would mention volt© atleast 10 times and there would be a Nike logo somwhere

I'm more interested in those $10 tickets....

That's a pretty cool looking helmet.

Yeah, I wish more schools would use their retro cartoon logos as one-offs (I know the Michigan one would be a hit if they could incorporate it somehow)

Other teams? Sure. Michigan? No.

@DukeFBEquipment says the team is wearing a previously unused uniform combination this weekend at Georgia Tech.

Looks like the Sooners have a new set for the Red River Shootout...

Hmmm. Needs more chrome.

[STL_ArchMadness 220]

^^^ that's funny, cause Ebola

But for Purdue, I've seen like 3 screen clippings of their official accounts, demanding that people know that Nike had NOTHING to do with that helmet. It was all their design, and Nike had zero say in it at all

i found out where the oregon diamond plates went

Mississippi State will wear the 100 year uniforms again against Auburn. It'll be a great uni-matchup for a top-3 game.

[razorback447 397]

Arkansas is releasing our alternate uniforms for this weekend at some point tonight via twitter. I expect it to be a throwback of some sort.

And they're out. So beautiful. Replicas of what we wore in '64.

They look nice, but it'll look like a scrimmage vs Alabama.

As it would have anytime we played them between the 1960 and 1992. This is the look that most Hog fans over 30 grew up with. There is definitely going to be a lot of fans happy with these.

UGA should break out the Blackout jerseys to help morn the death of the season.

That happened twice (62, 80). Wouldn't it have made more sense to wear them vs LSU or Ole Miss?

[STL_ArchMadness 220]

They look great, and I understand this is a big game against Alabama, but these jerseys look exactly the same lol
