Sugar Bowl Pseudo Clowniforms

because they drew Denard without his dreads.

Mark me down as in favor. I hope they've been experimenting with away jerseys and just trying to find one that people like. It looks clean, sharp, and it's not white/white or maize/maize. I wouldn't mind it at all if this became the normal away jerseys. Any word if they'll have their numbers on the side of the helmets?

Let's face it, we are in an area that uniforms need to be hot and new. They are recruiting tools and kids love changing their look. I personally love these. I would be very happy if these were perminant away jerseys. Michigan should have a couple alternate uniforms to attract prospects. Not to mention that a lot pf fans will go buy these, so profits also go up. Oregon basically built a program with their flashy uniforms and incredible facilites (thanks to nike). The landscape of college football is changing and we need to keep up with the times.

they are alright myself. I actually thought the MSU unis would have been alright without the stripes. I thought I would hate white on white, but I thought it looked pretty sweet. Wouldn't want it in every game, but it was cool for a change IMHE. Anyway, I like this look as well TBH.

I like the new ones road ones.  I may even buy one when they go on sale after the Sugar Bowl.

I will NOT be buying the ultra-modern form-fitting $350 version, though.

You don't pull on Superman's cape

You don't spit into the wind

You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger

And you don't mess around with jerseys for UM.

This is Michigan fergodsakes. 

Seriously, this is where I really can't stand Brandon and his brand marketing B.S.  Next we thing we know the Noid will be UM's mascot. 

And, I can't beleive I am saying this but Addidas actually makes me miss Nike.  Hell even Nutmeg Mills would be an improvement. 

Make it stop.

What's funny is that I actually love these. THESE are what I pictured when they said we'd be wearing a throwback uniform. These have a nice "old" feel to them with the simple, plain, blue stripes on them. I wouldn't mind keeping these around.

I really don't like the block M on the left chest. It makes the uniform too "busy". I'm not a fan of the shoulder strips, but I'n not all bent out of shape about them either. I wish we could just go back to the second-to-last Nike road jersey and be done with it. I loved those things, with the M on the sleeves and the two-toned collar.

From me, these unis get a resounding "meh."

Not a fan personally.  I like the traditional aways.  And by traditional, I of course mean the aways that get redesigned every year.  But don't have stripes.  Fuck those stripes.

eh, its better than this.

I like them, except the block M on the chest, sleeves, and "MICHIGAN" on the back of the neck is overkill. This is Michigan, we get it. The helmet should be enough to identify us.

On the other hand, the Sugar Bowl logo looks refreshingly small compared to past bowl patches. 

I could do without the shoulder stripes but I like the block M on the left chest and the blue undershirt sleeves.

We need to return to long sleeves and a button crotch!

Those are probably the best road jerseys we've had since 2006

edit: and if they put blue block m's on the shoulders instead of the stripes it would be tits

but I fear these new uniform patterns the same way Jim Delaney fears playoff creep. The new uniforms looks fine now, but then it opens the door for Dave Brandon to have all maize jerseys, have no wings on the helmets, play with a leather pattern on the helmets because it's "historic", put a giant wolverine logo on the chest complete with saliva and thunderbolts, an ad for Deja Vu in Ypsi as a tramp stamp on the jersey, etc

If the players are  :) than I am :)

 

So many variations and I dont like any of them.  I prefer what Michigan has always worn, but  if the players like them that is what really matters.  I will cast my vote by not buying it.

I just don't understand.  This is like something an athletic department stressed for money would do.  Just wear what we've always wore.

That's probably because of the throwback unis from the ND game. I loved those unis, so stripes have a bit of a special place in my heart now.

Is it common for major programs to wear alternate uniforms for bowl games?  I don't feel like I've seen it very often.

I didn't like UTL jerseys.  Hated them, actually.  I didn't like the MSU-game road jersey, but I was too anxious to care.  If true, I really don't like these.

Wearing multiple sets of uniforms during a season can't do wonders for our *brand*.

techfits? wearing em loose? Do people really pay that much attention to uniforms?

I don't think it looks bad, but I'm worried about this becoming a yearly thing with the Bama game neutral site throwbacks, Air Force camo throwbacks, ND game throwbacks, , MSU game throwbacks, OSU game throwbacks, BTCG throwbacks, and bowl game throwbacks next year. 

I kinda like these.  The blue stripes are subtle but a nice touch. Best road unis all year if you ask me.

I hate all the stuff on them - stripes, huge numbers, block Ms everywhere, yellow around the numbers. The jerseys wouldn't look terrible if we went with one or two of these items, not a goddamn Fourth of July grand finale of jersey add-ons.

hot fire unis

Better than the MSU game jerseys...although that is not saying too much

Careful boys, messing with the uniforms is fine, but touch that classic helmet, and ye shall have to deal with more than just Dave Brandon's pimp hand.............

 

 

these are not disgusting, but i say move the block M to the back of the neck like on the home jerseys and i'm also not a fan of the sleeves. i'm thinking they'd match better in maize, maybe. no logos or words or any of that business on the them either.
