I'd like us to wear blacks, but think we'll be in cardinal. Hasn't Pollard said in the past he prefers to have our primary colors for bowl games? Not that he has final say, and this isn't technically a bowl game, but it's one of the biggest in school history.

We will be in black. That's not a guess either

Pollard said before the Texas game that he wished we could wear black. So I’m guessing he’s cool with the blacks in 2 weeks.

The only weird thing is it’s a day game. Why isn’t the big 12 championship at night?

semi-sarcastic: since our traditional team colors are irrelevant; supposed CMC and the players prefer a different team mascot and team name?

They are not irrelevant. It's just not worth gettting in a tizzy about. Oregon wore a uniform last weekend that had no green or yellow either, and life went on.

My guess is all red, but I'd love for it to be all blacks again for no other reason than so the anti-black uni's crowd can be all pissy for the 4th time this year.

Personal hope - roll out a black top that has cardinal trim instead of gray and go chrome red-black-red

there is a difference between painting your living room based and remodeling your entire house. uniforms are temporary and not really important in the cannon of a school's history and traditions.

same logic applies to team name and mascot; whomever the team and coach identifies is the preference.
But, if we are going to wear black, I would prefer we jazz it up a bit, with more pop - those matte black w white is plain boring. Nike must be giving us the cost-saving models.

I hope it is all cardinal or all black. I think those combinations along with all white look the best.

Pollard was quoted that letting Campbell wear all blacks is cheaper than paying him an extra $2 million raise. So I'm guessing Pollard has given him free reign to choose whatever he wants to wear... Just win baby. Jamie is smart and he's getting outta the way.... at the end of the day, uniforms don't matter. It's trophies/titles.

Why is this a thread? It should be/will be all blacks lol. Have you not been paying attention this year?
