The '97-'03 version of the away jerseys were the best, and it is not even close. I had my Edwards "1" jersey of that style on today...

with the solid blue numbers against the white background. But if we are to insist on maize bordering the blue, do it without the weird nouveau stripes on the sides of the shirt.

I'd be fine with our current jerseys if we'd ditch the stripes on the sides. They look especially weird from the back - like a floppy pair of suspenders.

best road jerseys were these:
followed by the all white nikes from 2006, 07...

It's about 25 years old, size small. It's about 20 inches at the waist, but the shoulders fit shoulder pads so it's a weird fit. I'm saving it for my son. The year Harbaugh broke his arm was the worst season of my life (born in '70 at the start fo the Schembechler era) until, well, you know.

especially with the block M on the sleeves. Just yesterday I picked up Charles Woodson"s #2 on ebay for $15!

I was wondering why that vanished from my "watching" list. Oh well congrats man because of all the numbers on a Michigan jersey that one is truly my favorite.

Couldn't resist buying that one. Gotta love ebay. Can't wait to frame it and hang it up

late 90s jersey with the M's on the sleeves. I'm not wearing white Adidas anymore. I'm sticking with Nike throughout the season. Did so in 08 and 09.

Given how we performed in '08 and '09, are you sure it's a good idea to keep up that routine?

The simplicity of the pre-1997 road jerseys makes me wish that they could be sold as retro jerseys. I also wish they would sell Ford/Harmon/Chappius/Wister/Kramer retro home jerseys (smaller numbers, long sleeves, no TV numbers, but everything else like today's) because I think you could move some very old school Michigan jerseys.
The 1997 Michigan home jersey has one of the coolest features of any Michigan home jersey, the embossed block M on the shoulders. It could not be seen unless you were standing on top of it, but it was a neat look and I regret not getting a Woodson 2 that season.

I wish we were still sponsored by nike period. can't go wrong with the swoosh

As much as I would like to disagree, I will politely decline to do so, for knowing that if Michigan were still with Nike, they would have pushed, and pushed hard, for a Nike Pro Combat look this year and MIchigan would likely have some ridiculous costume that would nothing like Michigan in the name of increased revenue. They would have pushed for a Maize jersey for a road game or some such. So as much as I am not a huge fan of the adidas version of the road jersey at the moment, they at least seem mildly sane.
