I can't justify the 10-minutes spent, but (as a confession?) I made this chart to keep track of the uniform combos thus far. Perhaps there will be a survey poll w/ visial-aids at end of year like last December (https://cyclonefanatic.com/forum/threads/survey-to-rank-the-2016-uniform-combinations.224300/)

...or we'll have better things to worry about, like BigXII championships and bowl games!

** updated to fix Texa$ game error
*** apologize to some % for abbreviation choices, but can't bring myself to abbreviate the (G)rey as (A)nthracite, so left R/Y for red/yellow instead of C/G cardinal/gold

Texas was grey pants I believe. Plus the bugle.

Re: vs. OSU --- It was mentioned here and/or in the WV uniform thread, superstition factor to stay all-cardinal. I'd be OK staying with it. If there's a plan to change, I'd like to see W-C-G for that game.

Honestly I think our away options are better than the home ones. Out of the possible options this is how I'd rank them:
-White/White/White (preferably with full color I-State and three stripes)
-White/White/Gold (hasn't been in games but looks sharp)
-Cardinal/White/Cardinal (somewhat of a modern classic for this uniform design)
-White/White/Cardinal (toss up between this and the one below)
-Cardinal/ White/ White (see above)
-White/White/Grey (best use of grey for any uni combo. Stripes on pants and jersey match)
-Cardinal/White/Gold
-Cardinal/White/Grey

I know people have said Campbell doesn't like to feature the gold. Looks that way as we haven't worn gold pants all year.

I hope we wear red/red/red at home against Oklahoma State. We have a good thing going in those - 3-0 on the year. Your chart says we wore R/R/R against Texas, but we actually wore R/R/gray.

This post has been updated. The Register regrets the error.

I for one have abandoned hope that there will be a new helmet this year, given broader redesign for 2018, but I did see one last shred of hope, or false teasing by equipment staff, in this thread:

My guess and hope is that we might be going to a darker shade of gold next year. Maybe along the lines of the darker gold stripe in the white helmet. That could explain why no new current gold helmet this year, things wouldn't match, just wait till next year?

And It does seem that Campbell isn't using the current gold much, so..

With Veterans Day Saturday, I wouldn't be surprised if our uniforms incorporate something related to that. Not predicting it, but it's possible...maybe the mystery boxes are camo helmets...

an I State American flag helmet decal would be cool, imo
