The players voted on it. The majority of them obviously like this combination. If the players enjoy it.....look good, feel good, play good. We will see.

BUT BUT RECRUITS. If anything, I would think that recruits would see our whiny fan base ******** about something that the players (who are similar age to recruits) voted on, and be turned off.

As I said earlier, I'm youngish and I like them. Maybe there's an age block of old people that don't like them?

I'm oldish and I don't really care for them. But then my personal preference is to stay away from the matching jersey-pants color anyway, except for all white. I don't care if it's red, yellow, green, black or mauve ... if your jersey matches your pants, it looks like you're wearing pajamas. Just not my thing.

But it ain't up to me, and if the players like it, whatever. Just stay off my lawn, whippersnappers.

Usually when other schools break out new uniforms they tend to look good. These don't. If you're going to go with a solid color, bring back the all reds.

No, they don't.

I'm not saying these are good, but they got posted on an ESPN blog. There are three things these uniforms are for. Players, fans and public buzz. Pretty good job getting the uniforms shown for a game that's not even going to be on National TV.

Not all publicity is good publicity. We are being laughed at nationally for this.

Sigh... We couldn't have more different opinions, except the part about "if the players like it" which I can totally high five you for.

Penn State getting publicity for Sandusky was bad publicity. Anyone outside of Iowa talking about ISU's jersey is good publicity. And "laughed at nationally" is incredible hyperbole, lighten up francis.

Hate the all "solid" look on any team. Just doesn't work for FB. Hoops, it works for some reason.

Cardinal on Cardinal sucked for the McCarney years.... pretty sure I'll dislike the yellow on yellow too. I actually like our current jerseys (but wish we had yellow helmets with 2 cardinal stripes down the center of the helmet for home and wish we wore cardinal pants for the road games with cardinal helmets with two yellow stripes down the center....if I could choose) as they are traditional looking and solid.

Now if they just wore the white pants for Saturday's game with the yellow jerseys... it would be "meh," but an improvement over all yellow.

OH MY GOD! CAN WE STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT UNIFORM COMBINATIONS!

WE'RE NEVER GOING TO GET ANY MORE ALTERNATES IN THE FUTURE IF YOU KEEP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE ONES WE DO GET!

So all gold basketball unis are second to none, but all gold football unis are god awful?!

If there was NOT a red helmet, this would be a non-issue. Guaranteed.

The players voted for this - and that's enough for me to like them too.
