Oklahoma Sooners new uniforms

[OregonDucks]

Now are these just for certain games, or are these actually their only uniforms?

Sounds like they will be integrated throughout the season. Along with their traditionals. My guess is you have several combos here. OU uses each combo this season...just my guess.

Don't know if it's been mentioned, but on the inner neckline is the phrase "47 Straight".

what does that mean?

It's a tribute to the 47 game winning streak under Bud Wilkinson. The white helmets are from Bud's era.

Okay I've avoided posting this for 3 days but since someone else did I will comment. Yes if fucking hate them. Some schools have to use these tactics but Oklahoma isn't one of them. Thank God these will only be used in a couple games this year. I know kids these days want to venture out and OU wants to keep their interest but lets keep with tradition!

 

[KansasSooner]

It's all about what the players want anymore though. At least that's the impression I got from reading their comments in the paper.

What? No gold lamé, rhinestones or sequins?

Why bother?

Guess what most of the players have in common???
















That's right.
Bad taste.

I'm glad to hear it isn't an every game sort of thing. Personally, I have no problem when we do some sort of alternate jersey on occasion, but if we ever permanently changed them in a major way I would be pretty upset.

Sweet collar neckline. Really cute OU.

 

[Pariah]

Wooden helmets. They wore these when Texas won most of their games in the RRSO.

These new uniforms really exemplify the statement, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

Recruiting pitch or something?

This type of thing ONLY works for Oregon. It makes any other FBS team just look like an FCS team.

I hate when Nebraska does alts. It's like their heads are on the fashion show and not in the game.

Sometimes Joe Castiglione (Oklahoma AD) is a fucking moron. I've talked to a bunch of donors and all of us hate them. It's one reason OU didn't get on the retro bandwagon too much; our traditional uniforms are what we want to see. My guess is the fans won't like them and he'll hear about it. Especially if OU gets its dimpled ass beat or we play a shitty game and damn near get beat the first time they wear these ugly things. I'm sick of the BS that recruits demand this kind of stuff. Fuck any kid who thinks he needs his uniform to match his purse.

 

[Wild Turkey]

that would be like Bama or Penn State coming out wearing versions of those God awful Maryland uniforms

Or houndstooth on their collars...wait that wasn't a dream was it?

Obviously Stoops and the Athletic Dept have a different opinion than yours.

And they still have to answer to the fans...especially the alumni with the money.
