I hope white helmets and white pants do not become the home uniform. Maybe one game a year to satisfy all of the white helmet supporters that don't like the cardinal and gold school colors.

I'd agree if our Gold wasn't mustard yellow...what I really like is it seems they actually put a real gold color on helmet? Thank god...

texas all-whites are the best looking uniform in college football.

not anymore.

iowa state all-whites is the best looking uniform

I have always loved the all white Texas unis, although there was an earlier poster in the thread that disagreed. I think these ISU ones could be just as good, and they'll look even better if we start winning more football games!

The uniforms look good. But not that much different than what we had.

I have always wondered if someone at ISU wanted the yellow instead of the gold that they used to have, or if it was A decision made by Nike. Does anyone know?

It is amazing how much better they look with such subtle changes. I think the biggest problem with our uniforms has really been execution. Adding the stripes to the regular helmet should really help too. I also really like that it isn't the blah gray facemask anymore. I would like to see new unis, but If this is an indication of what they can actually do and somewhat differentiate from the USC look, these can be good too.

Isn't the current yellow "old gold"? Maybe someone just thought that was close enough and then never changed it.

For the main helmet, Red makes much more sense. A white alternate is awesome though.

I would argue that gold (yellow) makes the most sense. With one simple color change (plus red center stripe) the I-State logo stand out better, we get away from the USC look and we look more like the Earle Bruce unis (which I heard we were trying to do at the time).

Yes.

Could the slightly different gold on the helmet indicate a change to the gold on future jerseys? The helmet gold seems to be closer to what people have been clamoring for.
