Night Games & Uniforms

Alright, alright,....

As a Michigan fan with a brain, but also part of the new breed (I'm 25), I think that 1-2 night games per year would be cool. I understand safety concerns and all, but there are night games around the country every weekend and they figured everything out.

As far as a "black out", no thanks. Stick with the maize and blue tradition.

I would, however, like to see all white away uni's with blue numbers and letters outlines by maize. My second favorite unis in college football are Texas' away unis due to the white on white...I'd like to see this with us, esp with the winged helmet...it would be a good effect and I don't think mildly fussing with the away unis is toying with tradition.

Glad you agree about night games. And I wish they still wore the road unis they used from 1997-2004. Those were classic yet just modern enough. These new road ones suck

Pretty much anytime a school tries to make their uniforms look extra cool it comes out terrible. See Florida and Virginia Tech uniforms with the colored shoulder and just about every Oregon uniform ever experimented with.

Aesthetically pleasing, the whole white on white thing looks best when there's a white helmet involved with the white jersey and pants. For example, Texas, PSU, Oklahoma State, etc. In the pros, I'll offer you Miami, occasionally the Jets, not sure if the Cards have gone white on white.

What does NOT look good is when you have the white pants, the white shirt, and a dark helmet. Texas Tech wearing all white. The Broncos. Virginia Tech. UConn. Even Oklahoma in my opinion. The Vikings. etc. The list goes on and on.

In my opinion, our helmet, in all its high contrast and winged glory, would look ridiculous on a matching white set. It'd look like... practice.
