Uniforms (Nike, Under Armour, Adidas, etc....)

Probably the worst jerseys I've ever seen. I'd be embarrassed to wear them.

And I thought our jerseys for The Game last year were ugly. Hopefully they don't give us some garbage like VT this year..

Cryami more something similar in white vs Wiscy...ugly as [censored]. It really is incredible how much garbage nike comes up with. ALmost makes me want tOSU to switch to Adidas. :shake:

Adidas??? If they switched to anything I wouldn't mind Under Armour. Adidas has soccer on lock down, their miles behind the competition in football.

They did a good enough job keeping scUM and NDs classic style with very little tinkering...I'd be okay with that. They also don't insist on this pro combat nonsense. Nike seems intent on turning everything into a rap video with cleats and I do not trust them in the least. When Oregon is your poster program and they wear the shit they do, you've officially jumped the shark.

As for Under Armour, their uniforms are absolutely hideous IMO...

No wonder scUM wears Adidas.

Really? The two teams that come to my mind when I think of Under Armour are Maryland and Auburn. Both of which have simple designs, and both look good. Just my opinion though.

Why did the athletic gear giants have to make companies like Champion fade into nothing? I've ALWAYS liked Champion, always kept it classy, never tinkered with shit. Maybe I'm in the minority on the general opinion with Champion.

Wait until a team playing at GT demands to be allowed to wear their road unis...

Pretty sure the home team has the right to choose which uniforms they wear. LSU after all sports the white uni's at home. In a bowl game maybe it would be an issue though.

Honestly though, I fear the worst.


And for the record...the worst:

Auburn, I would agree on. Maryland, disagree strongly...

too much piping and just too "busy" all around. Then there's this doozy...

Just looks like a team screaming "look at me!"...again, too busy and awkward for me. South Carolina is another example...

Under armour just tries to cram too much into their designs IMO. Not to mention they're a big fan of the unicolor look which sickens me.

It's all about the $$$, my friend. Sadly, we're about to find out first hand on something much more important than uniforms right here.

I'm a fan of creatively exploring new uniform options, but I don't understand the direction that Nike goes with it. It is like Flavor Flav is their designer or something. Most uniforms created these days are hideous. Whoever said they try to make things look like a rap video is spot on; they do that for two reasons. 1) For the company's image, they want to seem to be "cool", and 2) They realize that the primary purchaser of Jerseys are fans of the team - and there are always enough to buy their crap - but then the next largest demographic is the hip hop demographic. It's freaking ridiculous.
