was the fact that those NIKE uniforms had a nice blend of traditional MSU- maroon jerseys, white pants, and maroon helmets with a white facemask with the interlocking MSU logo, but at the same time, they were very modern looking with the MISS. STATE font and the way the font of the interlocking MSU looked. The numbers were nice to because they kind of reminded me a little bit of the 1994 49ers throw-back jerserys, which is my personal favorite football uniform of all time, so that Nike uniforms also had some nostalgia attached with them to.
Let's just face it- it was a damn good looking uniform.
I like the current uniforms that we have to- they have many of the same qualities that the Nike ones did. I don't care for the M-State logo, but if we must have it, at least we have made it look like an athletic logo and not a academic logo like we're trying to be Vandy, Rice, or Duke- in other words, we don't care about football because we're smarter than you. Adidas has done something that I never thought was possible- they made an all-maroon uniform with a M-State logo that looks good. I honestly don't have very many, if any complaints about what we're wearing. They have the right shade of maroon, and the uniform is very modern looking. I like the all-maroon helmet to. They've also added silver to the uniform which I think makes it look sharp, and the black jerseys are different- I do think that it would be better with black pants, and I think they are going to do that per unconfirmed rumor.
