on our unis in many sports. the straight out black jersey in baseball.

Nebraska already sucked like that in the mid 90's.

Crimson and Cream. pretty simple. why fork around with something so good?

I kind of liked it...Maybe once a year, not anymore though.

What do you guys think about the football team wearing an alternate uni one game? I don't want to be Oregon or Miami, just something different...maybe another throwback?

Ya, no Oregon stuff. You could keep it close to traditional, maybe some Crimson pants?

King Crimson
5/24/2007, 10:19 AM
no crimson pants. we wear what we wear. the throwbacks were a nice tribute but leave it at that.

i don't like the black shizz on the unis and Castiglione can take a hike with it and marketing it (and meanwhile raising ticket prices and having more burrito blimps at the LNC).

Yeah, I saw that pic in my newspaper and thought it was a mislabeled picture until I saw the OU logo on the shirt. Made me feel like blech! Texas Techie kind of look.....I thought there was "only one Oklahoma!" Now I feel like something else. I'm sure when opponents on the football field see the crimson and cream on the other side it inspires that gut-wrenching feeling that they're going up against one of the most storied programs in the nation......with uni change-ups the "awe factor" slips I fear.

Crimson pants would look something like this:

I recall when we played nebbish in their house in 1986 (also played their in 1987 due to a scheduling glitch), they wore all scarlett. I thought it looked pretty cool, especially after we beat theur arses again:

Which is why we will never again, wear scarlet on scarlet. Not going to happen.

For baseball, and ONLY baseball, I think the black looks OK. Baseball teams frequently have many incarnations of their unis.

I agree. Baseball only. But only once in a great while should we wear them. We are still crimson and cream but the black unis don't look half bad. I was expecting something hidieous the way some were talking.

Perhaps this should be considered ...

More specifically:

you guys are a serious laugher in terms of unis. whether it's the blazing logo or the cop off of Tennessee's uni look.

And our football team should go back to white shoes.

1. Sorry for remembering what was seen on the VCR in a college football game.
2. I didn't realize it was so uncommon to have a poster from an opposing institution's fanbase on this board.
3. Remember the burnt orange helmets?

Black?

Although I would assume it would mainly be for Heupel and Gundy to wear, as the offensive coaches have started to wear black as its easier for the players to pick them out to get signs -- although I don't know about selling them to the masses.

The black unis look good for BASEBALL. Nike sent black jerseys to all of ther Nike "Elite" schools, and I doubt you will even see them next year. They are mainly for the postseason. You guys get way too worked up over this stuff. There is NO way they would ever do anything like this to the football uniforms.

From what I understand, Nike has approached the University for changes to the football jersey, but all proposals to this date have been rejected. I don't think the uniform is going to change at all.

And I think the black baseball jerseys are for postseason alone.

So, you're saying we should ditch the white pants, white numbers, white on the helmet, etc? White is used only as an accent color for the crimson as it is not included in our official colors.

Honestly, I wish OU would do more with our actual colors and not always throw red & white on everything because we aren't Nebraska.

Hell, they'd probably think that just going back thru 15 years of varying uniforms.

The 2000 season was by far the worst, even worse than the 'Black Saturday' bull**** they did in Pat's latter years.

If anybody knows what not to look like, it's an OSU fan.

I'm torn, gasp, I actually kinda like the white helmets but that's where it stops.

my brother had a few buddies who managed oSu ball in the 70's and 80's. I'll always remember going to a cookout at one dude's house, he had those oSu black helmets adorned in his living room.;)

Yeah, those black helmets were pretty bad (about as bad as the burnt orange).

The white helmets look good as long as they're not sitting atop an orange/orange jersey/pant combo. Same color jersey/pant uniforms should be outlawed by the NCAA (other than white on white worn only on the road). It's arena ball BS.
