Upset? Really?

Man, and people got on my ass about not loving FieldTurf.

Upset in a "man, that stripe is so ugly it's making me physically ill" type of way, not in a "tradition rabble rabble tradition why'd they change the unis this is terrible rabble rabble" type of way.

The helmet is lights-out, balls-deep amazing.

The jersey is growing on me in light of recent close up pictures showing the detail (the photoshop ads don't do the colors justice).

The pants aren't terrible.... BUT THAT STUPID STRIPE DOESN'T HAVE A PLACE IN THIS WORLD.

One year they have to do a light blue jersey. Madonna blue or whatever is on the inside of the dome. They could use the exact same layout, just change the jersey color. It's also been since 2011 that they've rocked a green jersey, they're due.

Absolutely. As long as they don't make us look like UCLA, could look fantastic.

I'd like to see them incorporate more Kelly green into our uniforms. It's unique in CFB, and usually looks very sharp.

From the shoulders up.... great. The helmet comes in second after last years.... which will never be eclipsed as you can't improve on perfection.

From the shoulders down, it looks like NAvy and Pitt had a baby. Nothing special.

That being said, it's better than '11 & '12's on the helmet and shoulders alone.

Nothing to be upset with. Nothing to make Oregon look twice like they were forced to last year.

Lol! Point stands from ACamp that it'd be a sicko color combo. Golden dome, black stripe and black ND interlocking lettering that isn't filled in, just the outline. (maybe even two tone the outlines with black and green and leave the strip off)

Black unis with kelly green accents/numbers/etc. I think it'd look amazing!

They are most likely saving this combo for the Fenway meeting with Boston College. That'll be an awesome venue to wear such a combo.

Quick, someone get this to UA immediately!

If we're rolling with one alternate jersey each year, why not go with green? It's unique and traditional. Loved the uniform from 2011 Michigan game and last year's shamrock were sharp too.

I agree with the blue too. Something like this:

At least the helmet is sharp this year.

No way. I want 1912 uniforms for that game.

In all seriousness, I hope they go full "classic" mode for that game. Something ultra-modern would feel incongruous in Fenway.

THIS x 100

I said as soon as this game was put on the schedule that the Irish are gonna roll into Fenway and out Celtic the boys from Boston.

SS jersey like the reverse of these Celtic uni's... with a Chrome Green helmet - with foil gold shamrock trapped in black and matching shoes.

So that every player at Oregon and Baylor go DAAAAAAMN... at the exact same time.
