The Significance of School Colors

So our school colors are maize and blue, right?  I found it interesting that when Rich Rod became the UM head football coach that the colors and uniforms were quite similar to those of WVU.  The tradition of Michigan football has dictated that our uniforms remain loyal to the university colors.

But whoa, then Nike entered the picture and now Oregon (The University of, University of or whatever of anything of whatever) has something approximating 300 different football uniforms.  WTF?  WTF Phil Knight's influence on Ducks' ball?

So now Nike is the official sponsor of WVA and the blue mountain school seems  have almost as many football uniforms as Oregon.  They are wearing some uniforms in tonight's whatever bowl that appear to be colored white, black and silver, with just a touch of blue/yellow on the numbers.  Is this Slut University Sports?

Then there is Notre Dame: the colors are dark blue and gold, but oh shit when the Domers really really need a victory before the old alumni crap their pants they wear green and some form of gold.  This is yet another slut college.

Well then we have to mention Sparty University with Nike uniforms that are as goofy as are their academic/social/criminal standards.  Just how many variations of shit green and white can one pathetic just above community college university have?

Maybe our last couple of years sucked, but we have the integrity of maintaining our colors and essentailly the same uniforms for the past 100 years.
