Submitted by Litt1e Rhino on

Sorry if this has been posted I couldn't find it anywhere.

MSU is suppose to show their new jerseys today at 3:15.
I am betting they will be ugly as hell.

Basketball and Hockey are both there as well. I agree that these are huge steps down from the previous years. I liked the old versions. The tails on the script look ridiculous.

I am praying that Nike's pulling an Oregon with them. I would like them to wear lime-green helmets with lime-green numbers and black pants when the come to Ann Arbor, so they look as Bush-league as they really are.

But I give them some credit here because, at least by what they are saying, they are doing something right in my opinion. They are coming out with jersey's for basically all sports that they supposedly don't have to change every other year and actually have a look that people can see and not think, isn't that different than it was last year.

For what it's worth it will never be Michigan in tradition, but at least (for them) they seem to be making some sort of step in the right direction

We'll see in 2-3 years if they actually mean what they say though

I love this quotation from the article, describing the importance of the unveiling:

"Needless to say, this Friday will be one to remember for years."

Wow. I can see the author now, telling his grandchildren about what he was doing when MSU unveiled their new football uniforms.

Life as an MSU football fan must be very, very empty if today is something to be remembered for years.

I checked that site out, and I love that Michigan has 3 variations of its helmet (two of which are virtually identical, the other one is the exact same helmet with player numbers on it.) Every other school I've checked has about 10 or more variations.

Good point, although Penn State's helmet looks old, like Alabama's. I like the helmet, I'm glad they've kept the look, but it's a whole other thing to have Michigan's helmet both extremely historical/traditional and still look extremely up-to-date/awesome.

Less than an hour away from this important announcement!
How will I find time to reschedule the rest of loafing I'm doing at the office on a Friday afternoon!
I'll have to have our interns look at porn for me!

I can almost literally go to WolverineHistorian's channel, pick a random selection of MSU games, and see a different uniform EVERY SINGLE TIME!

to the Jeff Smoker/Charles Rogers green and silver stuff.

That was like a green wearable loss.

EDIT: That's it, Hausoian!-- sorry for not replying to your original comment.

numerals... those green shoulders on the white jersey aren't all that pleasing to the eye if you ask me.

Also, I don't notice sleeve numbers on the first two with the contrasting shoulders... Nike's been big for a few years now on removing TV numbers from sleeves and/or shoulders... I'm not a fan of this trend.
