What is the "uniform surprise"?

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

I don't think he means ND is wearing them all season, I think he means UA will have teams wearing them throughout the season.

Damn.

 

[zelezo vlk]

Perhaps the 150 patch will be worn all season.

Forget throwbacks. These should be worn every week. Pants are so much better than the ugly yellow mustard ones.

I like those

 

[IrishLion]

Those GT Cape Day uniforms are legit. They also give me the warm-and-fuzzies because honoring kids is awesome.

 

[Irish Joe]

Hopefully L'ville is also ditching the chrome lids...they and Indiana's chrome are by far the worst of this horrible trend.

It's going to be difficult to get away from defenders with all that fabric.

Me as well.

Slightly crispy, fully flee.

this is probably the coolest college sports thing Adidas has done in 500 years.

I’m okay with the chrome helmets but I’m guessing UoL’s will be black.

Yea, I saw other shots from that Louisville photoshoot showing a black helmet with a regular finish.

I'm probably just an old curmudgeon, I've just never liked the chrome trend and initially liked the matte helmets, but even those grew old to me.

ND's helmets will forever be the best (as they are now) because the shiny gold looks good both during the day and under the lights.

I'm not a big fan of other chrome helmets, or even some 'traditional' helmets, because they reflect light in an extreme fashion, to me.

Aside from ND's helmets, I prefer a good matte finish, regardless of color. I like the way the flat paint stands out and makes the helmet colors and logos visible, regardless of lighting.

Purdues chrome helmets suck too... Look like mirrors, look bad on TV imo.

Purdue & Michigan State both have history more than most and could have classic, traditional looks but choose to crap on that history to pander to the uniform trends.

Are you referring to millennials for designing it or for being the ones who will be using it? Because I'm at the tail end of the category millennials and had started my senior year of football ten years ago.

This looks dumb. Back in my day....the cool thing to do was have alternate helmets/uniforms, now people want see-through stuff? F'ing weirdos man.

IDK man. Just seems to fit into the age range that the "ME'ME" movement started.

Won't the interior padding still hide most of their heads?

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

Football players are the most popular kids in their high schools and colleges. To claim they are faceless victims (or whatever point this helmet is trying to make) is absurd.

 

[ShamrockOnHelmet]

So why aren’t today’s unis the full time permanent unis? They are perfect.
