Virginia Tech is a bad addition too.

Also don't care for UGA's or LSU's.

Ive never understood everyones love with * unis. They are basically a carbon copy of OUs, except in puke orange with a reverse colored helmet. One would think that with those being the only real differences, that most people would prefer the beautiful crimson and cream over puke orange and white. Thats just my opinion.

Oregon State's Pro Combats from last year should be on there. Absolutely brilliant adaptation of a great retro look on modern uniform technology.

they'd never make any best uni list simply because it's Wake Forest and they rarely wear these particular unis, but I really like their old-school plain gold tops with the black pants.

I would not include Georgia, Auburn, Florida, USC or Va Tech. I prefer UNC, TCU (I like the purple and black, sue me), BYU, and Washington over those.

The first page says: Here is a look at other uniforms in college football that are unique to college football

So i think that explains some of the weird inclusions.

The note next to the Sooner uniform brings up a question I've had for a while. I'm not sure exactly when we switched from the flat crimson paint on the helmet to the formula they use now, but I thought it made a huge difference in the overall look of the uniform. I'm not sure if it's several extra layers of clear coat they've added, but those helmets almost look metallic under the lights.

The LA Colosseum?



I was just clicking on the different pages rather disinterested until I came across Florida. WTF? I simply have a hard time looking at those uni's. Might as well be pastels.

Seems all these best uni, best stadium, best traditions etc. are just a popularity contest

Actually, I thought they lost all credibility with this statement:


The red and white of the Sooners is nice...."

The crimson on the OU helmet was updated with a richer, metallic paint for the 2000 season. The Sooners celebrated by winning the school's seventh national championship.

Updated right before we brought home MNC7

Ah, so it really is a metallic paint. That would account for the extra layers of clear coat.

I think the very best uniforms are those that haven't changed much over the years. UT, OU, Alabama, etc.

That's how you build an iconic brand and identity. That's why I wish we'd stop changing our uniforms every other year.


And there is no way in hell that Oregon should be anywhere near that list.

Didn't you say the same thing in the stadium thread? I don't see everyone's fascination with Penn State. Their uniforms are dumb and I don't see anything special about their stadium.

Penn St = generic... I guess they qualify as "classic", or "retro". They're okay.

I do like them better than that jive Nike crap out there.
