14 for ’14: Best uniforms in college football

Awww UDUB, why did ya'll sell out, too? Always thought UDUB had cool unis, not anymore

I'm actually ok with these. Not a fan of the all purples.

I always prefer the gold pants, purple jersey, gold helmets. The classic UDUB uni. We'll be rocking those most of time at home.

The black alts are fine one or two games a year.

I hate everything new they did with FSU. The helmet is growing on me but everything else......... TRASH!!!!!!!!

Welcome to the gaudiness of Nike

Damn contract with them is through 2019. Really really hope they dump them and go with Adidas after that. More traditional and actually larger contracts with them.

Yeah yeah, we know Mamba, UW is highest paid by Nike in the Pac12 and only Bama, LSU, FSU, and NC have higher paying contracts with them, but their style is lame and Adidas pays better so I'll be happy when we say bye bye.

You too are victims of Nike's BS. Welcome to the club.

For all the shit Oregon gets on their uniform craze, they do have some sweet get-ups from time to time. Personally I like their flat black attire, some of that forest green stuff, and even those liquid lighting/mirrored finish helmets.

So if they make an extra buck or $1250 ( Oregon Ducks Revolution Speed Football Helmet Liquid Lightning Hydrochrome | eBay ) it's not as if their teams are all flash and no cash.

**Btw, sorry to hear about your starting LT, Ducks' fans. Hope that kid has a full recovery. But there's still plenty of time for the next man up to prep for a Sparty ass kicking.

Go Ducks!

Washington and Michigan can swap contracts. I'd gladly go back to Nike after the Adidas jersey problems/designs I've seen (both football and hoops). Some of the crap Adidas comes up with...like their striped, zig-zag, "shockwave" socks.

Maybe it's time for Under Armour.

That's an awful pricey minimum bid for a toilet.

Glad the traditional powers up to this point have told nike to calm down, but when i see Texas, bama, or Penn State in black uni's i'll know all hope is lost.

Traditional uniforms are always going to trump this new flashy crap. It just turns out that Penn St. was the only traditional uniforms listed.

I'm scared Franklin is going to sell out. The dude is a recruiting machine and I fear he'll use it as just another tool.

I don't want to see USC in black either I'll stick with the classics

 

[Lance Armstrong]

any of the classics, USC, oklahoma, etc...

Tradition and success are a selling point you can't put a price on. You can put a shiny cover on any team but that doesn't change their history. There's a lot to be said for the programs that have the tradition to stick by

The number one uni was penn state. I have my suspicions the writer may be using the proceeds on a bed

Like the extension of the arrows on the helmet to cross in the back. Like the new chameleon garnet to black helmet as well. The neck and shoulder changes are minor and I like the tip of the hat to the Seminole tribe. Only thing I do not like is the "conformity" of the color Garnet because it made the jerseys darker. Understand why they did it, but should have left that alone.

I guess I can't complain with PSU #1 but agree with others that the rest of the list was head-scratching.

Love Alabama, OSU, ND, Michigan, & USC classics as well. It's hard to have a list with any credibility that doesn't contain those. Plus mixing in some of the new ones - I'm not totally traditionalist.

L'ing OL at how gay all you fashionistas are.
