i like it better as well. the helmet is dumb though. i love how the nike rep is trying to sell the public that wearing these uni's will help an individual play "fast" b/c that is the direction football is going. really? thanks.

that these new jerseys are made out of cotton (100%) and they shrink in the wash prior to the game a la Seinfeld's "The Chaperone."
Sean McDonough: And the Buckeyes take the field.
Matt Millen: And what is with the Buckeyes? They look like they're having trouble running. They can't move.
McDonough: It's their uniforms, they're too tight. They've shrunk. They're running like penguins. Forget this game.
Millen: Oh my God, Pryor just split his pants.
Rich Rodriguez: That's a shame.

The only upgrade they could make would be to get rid of Scarlet and Grey and those appear to still be a part of the uniform, therefore, I hate them.

Their regular ones are much better. I do think, though, that they should go to plain gray pants.

I don't like the helmets, probably because they are too plain. Or because its OSU.

Does anyone else really wish
Does anyone else really wish
Does anyone else really wish we had stuck with Nike over Adidas? Admittedly I'm a huge Nike fan, but I'm pretty jealous of all the Nike sponsored schools getting all this awesome new gear. Plus, this may or may not be true but someone told me that recruits are attracted to schools sponsored by Nike for this reason.
November 18th, 2009 at 4:51 PM |
The thing that I hate about
The thing that I hate about
The thing that I hate about Nike and their awesome new gear is that all of the stuff is similar. There is the same "high-tech, lightweight, manueverable" stuff with all of the same uniform design. It's not being Michigan, it's being a part of team Nike. Plus they do this at a rivalry game, on the road. Dick move.
November 18th, 2009 at 4:54 PM |
Adidas is Better IMO
Adidas is Better IMO
Nike always has to get fancy even with traditional uniforms, plus they take advantage of child labor. Maybe that's why the Bucks love them. The question on the new uniforms should be: How many children died to make this?

Michigan's Uniforms
Michigan's Uniforms
Michigan has the best home uniforms in all of college football. If a recruit wants to go somewhere based on their uniforms, Michigan is the place to be. (However, I realize a lot of recruits probably have bad tastes when it comes to football uniforms.)

Oregon
Oregon
That is a big reason why some players are choosing to play at Oregon. The over 3 million jersey combinations has a draw to some. I dont know how UM alum would handle an alternate jersey for any of our games. There was a big enough stink when Adidas brought out our current road uni.
You can sum up this sport in two words, 'You never know.'
November 18th, 2009 at 5:07 PM |
Maybe this will help UM

they will be tricked into thinking they aren't playing a team they've lost to for half a decade.

The shoes

I heard a lot of the players hate the shoes that they have to wear. A lot of the line is complaining about their ankles rolling. Hopefully a good thing for us.

The best news regarding OSU's
The best news regarding OSU's
The best news regarding OSU's unis is that it will probably take Pryor till at least middle of the third to realize they are wearing the same uniform he is. Big advantage for us.

once went to the Lynard Skynard / Tesla / Bachman Turner Overdrive "TRIPLE CROWN OF SOUTHERN ROCK" tour... excluding himself, he had more fingers than the entire crowd had teeth. Although there was a tremendous amount of Jack Daniels being passed around at the lawn area at Pine Knob, er, DTE Music Center.

They look like the helmets that they wore in the "The Express" with Dennis Quaid.

The "Team Nike" comments
The "Team Nike" comments
The "Team Nike" comments referenced above are apt.
I also hate how all of their stuff is incredibly heinous. diamondplate patterns on football uniforms is sooooo XFL.
I actually like the Oregon Unis from when Joey Harrington was there.
Nike makes money off selling merch, especially replica jerseys. Having a team change unis every few years (or in Oregon's case, multiple times per year) is money in the bank for them.

but I think their current uniforms are some of the worst in football, both home and away.
They're gonna look great when we're running by them into the endzone.
