On that note
As I was driving home from the airport last night, I noticed the NW football billboard on the side of I-294 which stated, "Northwestern - Chicago's Big Ten Football Team." Yeah, take that notre dame and Illinois!!!
(and I'm pretty sure the sign has been up for a while and that I've probably seen it at least 5 times in the last month driving back from the airport).

The purple one looks ok because the stripe doesn't show up nearly as much, but the white one looks like a soccer jersey.

You notice how they never show the big ugglies when they unveil the uniforms. The sleek position players look alright in most everything. Add a big belly and a dunlop around the midsection and everything changes.

I like them. Pretty unique without looking disgusting. Remind me of hockey sock striping.
I also like that they stressed purple and white rather than purple and black. Looks good.

As a casual Uni Watch
As a casual Uni Watch
As a casual Uni Watch follower, I immediately liked the striping because because it has a basis in Northwestern history. Uni Watch refers to those types of stripes (three stripes, thick stripe in the middle with two thin stripes on the outside) as Northwester stripes:
Northwestern stripes: A stripe pattern consisting of one wide stripe bordered by two thinner stripes. It can appear on socks, sleeves, pants, and anywhere else stripes can be applied. Pioneered by the Northwestern University football team in 1928 (further details here).
So it's not just a random stripe drawn across the jersey, it's an homage to Northwestern's biggest contribution to uniform design.

Away uniforms are cooler
Away uniforms are cooler
Overall I dig it. I mean let's face it, it's friggin Northwestern folks. They're never gonna be an intimidating brand. And they're stuck with purple as the featured color.
That being said -- I actually like the "away" unis better for some reason. College football should allow home teams to play whatever uniform they want (a la NFL). If that was the case, I think those away unis should be their full-time colors.

The NCAA does let home teams choose their uniforms, don't they? Georgia Tech and LSU wear white at home.

Am I the only one that see's
Am I the only one that see's a sideways "Z" instead of the Northwestern "N"? It always takes me half a second to realize it's an N. Like on of those things that you can't unsee once you notice it.

Son of a bitch...my fault. I pride myself on random, useless jersey knowledge.
The purple is distinctive. I like that Northwestern is embracing it instead of trying to diminish it. NU is trying to establish more of a brand, at least in the Chicago area, and this is almost as eye-catching and unique as Smurf Turf. Thumbs up.
