I love the orange helmet:

More teams need orange. I say that as a fan of a team who's colors are the literal opposite of orange.

I'd even take a bit more of a gradient instead of a seam midway down.
Agreed. When the first images came out it sort of looked like a more gradual gradient, and I thought it looked kind of cool. Then when non-photo-studio shots were released it turned out that yeah, the abrupt gradient looks awful.

Orange owns. Illinois recently showed off their new stuff and it looks pretty sharp.





Still can't stand that goofy shiny stripe thing on the collar though.

I think that's Pozluzny's mask. Chances are, yes, but only to fit his weird square head.

I cant wait for the helmets to be changed to something sane. Matte black with a gold stripe bisecting would be nice. Ooh, and maybe metallic gold fasteners on the helmet with a black facemask. Just for for a touch of bling. Thing is, I dont think we can change the uniforms again for awhile, because they let Shad Kahn have a freebie uniform change, even though they just re-did the jerseys the year before, and there's some kind of limit to design changes.

The new orange hue looks to be the same as the current Bears, which is kinda neat since the Bears originally chose orange and blue as an homage to the university.

That's a nice number font too.

I know Arizona got in trouble because used a gradient with their numbers last season. Now they use red on blue, but I don't know if that constitutes "contrasting colors"

Under Armour designed some horribly tacky Wounded Warrior uniforms for us a few years ago that had invisible numbers from a distance/on TV, so we had to change out of them before the game started.

Speaking of USC, I was happy that Under Armour made those changes to their uniforms last year. I think they have one of the better helmets around and and it's nice to see their jersey's finally catching up.

I agree -- I think this is the best uniform we've worn in decades. Our original UA set had excess piping, as well as striping that was just too cluttered and modern. We've simplified our jerseys a great deal, so now they're clean and match the traditional look of the helmet.

My only gripe is that we don't currently have a black uniform, which is a glaring oversight since it's actually a school color and not some novelty gimmick for us. However, Spurrier hates them, so I don't think we'll see them return any time in the near future.

has anyone ever heard of this site? The selection's pretty enormous, they have custom jerseys, and offer *~*free shipping*~*. Just wondering if anyone's ever ordered off of it, if anything ever came, you had a black SUV full of men in black suits shake you down a couple days later, etc.

Aliexpress is the direct-to-consumer website for Ali Baba, which you may have heard of as the single largest online marketplace in the world. You know the place looking for an IPO at a valuation greater than Facebook? AliX is just so you can get their cheap knock offs or knick knacks shipped to you. No idea if they're worth a drat for jerseys though!

I got a Richard Sherman jersey from them that looks really good, as well as a JJ Watt pro bowl jersey that needs to have the nameplate straightened (it's noticeably crooked). I'm getting that fixed though, so overall I'm happy with what I got from them. They even had decent shipment tracking, considering it's international.

I feel like the mid-00s are going to generate a lot of unpopular throwbacks. The Bills, the Lions adding black for Matt fuckin Millen, the last Seahawks jersey before nike started FutureBall (I still don't like their new ones, but those most recent ones were gross)
