Michigan should go to Under Armour, they said.

Their uniforms are better than adidas, they said.

Who said that? I hear lots of people (myself included) pining for Nike again, not UA. I don't want Nike because of UNIFORMZ (which are turrible), but because of overall quality, and not having jerseys shred from being looked at all squinty eyed.

I'll bite. I prefer Under Armour. I would love a nice Under Armour tee, and a quarter zip for games. Their clothing, to me, is the highest quality. 

On the field Maryland and MERICA Northwestern take the cake for crazy designs.But they have turned out some things of beauty with a legacy like Auburn, Notre Dame,Temple. Toledo's new uniform is better too. 

Honestly, the tearing doesnt bug me as much as it bugs some of us, I would rather wear a consistent sized shirt and not be between sizes constantly.

Hate that uniform. What were they smoking?

I almost never go into threads about uniformz, but man, what are people thinking? I get that times change, and we move forward, but this just seems . . . ridiculous. The uniform companies, all of them (UA, Adidas, Nike, et al) seem to have designers who have to justify their existence by coming up with something more and more outlandish. A pox on all of them.

The more uniforms I see, the more I appreciate this:

How sweet would it be to wear those at night.  (Either Nike or adidas, doesn't matter)

I've chased three kids off my lawn this week alone, but I gotta say that other than the goofy number, those look pretty sweet.

I have wondered for a long time what we would look like in blue jerseys and blue pants.  I actually think this look is perfect for a night game.  The maize highlights - wings, M's, numbers - will really "pop" against the blue background under the lights. 

I am excited to see this look at night.  The contrast provided against Penn State's all-whites will make for a cool event.

The waist up actually isn't horrible. I don't mind the shoulders at all and their logo is good enough to throw it on the helmet, though people are gonna get upset because of tradition and that's understandable. However, the pants and the shoes and just.... attrocious. Just horrific. I don't even understand... UA channelling its inner Addidas.

Man, this makes me sick.  I don't mind admitting I'm liberal for the most part, but the temptation of a few bucks has crapped all over tradition when it comes to uniforms.  I'm glad the players like it, because someone's got to.  I expect this from the traditionless like Sparty, but does anyone remember the glory of playing Ohio when they actually wore their traditionals?  And their alternates are far from the worst.  Yeesh.
