Iowa unveils blackout alternates for OSU

[SoapyCy]

Pretty nice job all the way around. Nice uniforms, nice promo.

it feels nice to be kind about an opposing school that poses no more threat to you

Those are top to bottom really well done and look great.

At least they will look cool while they are getting pummeled...

Why fill in the numbers on the jersey with a pattern but not the helmets? Regardless, they look great.

 

[ISpyCy]

Just my observation, but I've seen more support for these alternates here than I have on any Iowa athletics facebook page. I'll give it up for them, they look pretty sharp.

Black, silver, and gold. Weren't those the original Iowa State colors?

Looking sharp! I like the uniform, not totally sold on the helmet. These are better than their stale Steeler uniforms. Also a million times better than the black uniforms they wore against Minnesota a few years back.

I think so. And I think ISU will have some black/silver stuff next year on the field.

Looks like the helmets do have the pattern.

Ah. That's a better look at the helmet.

These are pretty sweet, was hoping for a new version of these babies though.

Ooh- moar black and silver... yummy... I need some alone time...

Stoopid kids these days.

Yeah, uniform fads come and go. Then look ridiculous years later.

Stick with the classics, IMO. Now get off my lawn.

My post was sarcastic. The mid-90's Iowa uniforms I posted a pic of are the ugliest uniforms ever worn during a football game.

Those do look pretty cool. Great way to camo all the black turf pellets on the back of their jerseys when they get steamrolled by OSU.

I mean any team can get beat on any given day. Let's say that Iowa pulls off a miracle. Does that turn out to be the biggest upset this year?? I really dislike OSU aka Urban Meyer, probably worse than Iowa, but I really don't know who to pull for. Probably Iowa Besides them and Alabama, I can't stand all the kool-aid drinkers at ESPN.

Kuddos, to Lee Corso for picking ISU over TCU. Gotta love the hype we are getting!!

LOL. I forgot about those. Were those supposed to be feathers? I'm trying to figure out if we had anything that bad.

I loved our Peach Bowl throwbacks, wish we could use them again from time to time.

Might as well save them for our appearance in the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl on Jan. 1, to mark the 40th anniversary.

Had the replica of that growing up. Literally gave it to my nephew a few months ago.

I always assumed they were feathers or wings but I do not know for sure if that was their intent.

 

[iahawks]

I know the kids love them and that is why these are mostly done, but I hate all these different uniforms. I'm old school and just want to see the original uniform for every game.

 

[PabloDiablo]

These look great. Have to give credit where it's due, well done U of I.

 

[Farnsworth]

Those are bad ass, top to bottom. I like the helmets as well.

The video was sweet too, way better than our awkward swaying dude video.
