Jersey / Uniform Discussion (OSU)

not sure why the Team Shop and other places are pulling down the stuff...went to Buckeye Corner and they had everything...except the gloves

Rumor is the gloves and jersey will go on sale after the game...not sure how that is smart though

the theme for this whole thing this year is the Buckeye stripe...it is Nike's point of emphasis on the helmet, gloves, the long sleeve base layer players where under their pads/jersey, the t shirts, the hoodie and the jersey

Thats how they normally would sell the gloves. In previous years with a build up to a bowl I could see that selling strategy, but why not sell them leading up to our de-facto bowl game this year...The Game.

Ideally, it would be nice to play a big OOC game and wear these pro combats then. I like to keep the tsun game sacred, which doesn't involve Nike going full Oregon on us. Never go full Oregon.

What hoodie?

Fuck chrome helmets. I'm 33 years old. I don't think football is supposed to be flashy. It's supposed to be about grit and gut checks, not glitter and buttsex.

Ped St and Nike are ruining football.

Though I do agree that we shouldn't be wearing an alternate uniform for The Game.

Absolutely. In a game about a sacred tradition, you don't introduce completely different uniforms, no matter how cool they are. I'm with SouthCampus, use them for a big OOC game (not that we had one).

Rumor is they can't produce jerseys because they are behind in production for the NFL jerseys

This is what I was told by several retail outlet managers/suppliers. It's also why there's been a limited number of authentic "sewn twill" jerseys available this year, in spite of Nike having 8 (?) different number options for the replicas.

Never understood the bitching on these boards about alternate uniforms. If it makes the game more memorable and enjoyable for the players I'm all for it. Football is a game, a sport. It's for fun and enjoyment.

Not to mention the Bucks are 3-0 while wearing alternates.
