New uniforms

[TheC]

Anddddd I think we’ve stumbled on a generational divide.

I like the idea of alternate uniforms and I generally like the idea of throwback uniforms. The Cincinnati Reds have had some awesome throwback uniforms this season for their 150th anniversary. However, I happen to not like these particular throwback alternate uniforms. They are boring and don't actually represent an era of NU history. So, generational or not, these alt unis seem pointless and not very interesting. That all said, I will care not at all about uniforms come September 28th as long as the Cats look good on the field.

Not a huge fan of these but the helmet is pretty cool.

Just think thata "throwback" uniform should relate to a year or era. Still don't care if they wear pink, just WIN!

Although I do think trotting out the Gothic Uni's every so often is great. I hope we're done with gray pajamas.

Type is really hard to do well. If you can't do it well, skip it. Just have the player's name and number, let the color tell the story about NU. I do agree simpler is better. I like PSU's uni's.

Really have we become Oregon who has a gazillion uniforms? I would just like to see one home, one away and one alternate/throwback to be worn for a special occasion. And before anyone says the guys like it that is so not true, many times the kids have said these alternate uniforms are sick but other times they have said these are awful

No.

 

[stpaulcat]

No.

No, what?
Type is hard to do?
Just name and number?
Simpler is better?
PSU's uniforms?

My basic point is that NU has a difficult time with design (of any kind). While these uniforms are not terrible as I originally said, they are not good, just a poor attempt at throwback. We can do better, how?

Yes

Yes

You're not going to be able to do this much longer. Word is gocatsgo has filed a trademark application on one-word responses.

I'm just messing with St. Paul. I still have one one-word response left.

Don’t call em “throwbacks”...

I'm glad it is not a two word response.

Alright, this is okay.

Maybe.

What do Fordham University's pseudo-throwback football jerseys look like?

I see what you did there.

FU!!

Oh, and as for the Fordham University throwback uniforms, I have no idea.

 

[Overly_Invested_Cat]

The uni's remind me of the reboot of the PT Cruiser. Reminiscent of something of a classic, but updated and not nearly as cool.

In 1955 or 1882?

Agree on all counts.

What year(s) do those "throw backs" represent

All 129 FBS Teams are wearing some king of throwback to celebrate 150 years of college football.

They look like blocks of granite.

They look like blocks of granite.

Are you sure about that? I wouldn't want you to take anything for granite
