Are we wearing all white at Iowa?

Submitted by Mustachioed Ge… on October 9th, 2009 at 1:23 PM

I read in today's The Daily today, that we might be nixing the maize pants in favor of all whites. Does anyone have any sort of confirmation as to what we will be wearing? Also, thoughts?

What's your excuse for not watching out for the grammar police?

Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but I will be 8.3% more excited if we win the game in white pants than I will be if we wear maize ones (whereas I'd be 14.7% less excited if we were to win in blues).

Whatever, I just think the purples are unlucky.

Make the horn thing on the sides of the jerseys blue and that's what's up. I've been wanting that for some time now. I like that better than all whites.

I'm a fan of all whites. Why not? The home uni's will NEVER be changed, but i have no problem with changing the aways. They have changed a bit here and there over the last 10-15 years....

So, basically, West Virginia with winged helmets...

I don't see any opossums hanging around the belt, so probably not West Virginia.

I don't like teams wearing white tops and dark pants. It looks high-schoolish. As for the stripes on the jersey, I'd like us to just get rid of them. The jersey would be really nice if it just had the numbers and collar.

to the uniform combinations (Maize-on-Maize being the exception) just don't touch the helmets.

The blue pants don't look half bad, and given that Iowa's pants are also yellow-ish, that may not be the worst idea. The yellow accent stripes on the jersey go better with the helmet.

If the stripes on the jersey are blue, then I think the numbers need to be all blue also or else it just kind of clashes, with the blue pants and all.

that way it might mesh better with the current numbers.

Just saw the thread with the video of Big Jon Falk talking about the pink locker room. Now, I may be wrong, but it sure looks like there are white pants hanging on the right side of every locker when they pan across the thing: http://all-access.cbssports.com/player.html?code=mich&media=143702

You're right....there certainly isn't anything maize hanging in those lockers. There is a long duffle type bag hanging on the left side of each locker stall, unless the maize pants are in there......I think we are wearing white.

I think that you are right unless that is just a towel hanging up there.

though, they look like white tee-shirts in the lockers. I still can't tell anything from that video.

Hopefully the athletic department just wants everything kept quiet so the team doesn't find out. Rich might try to use this for motivation and inspiration.
