Cyclones red/white/red combo for Ireland

 

Holy shit they're actually wearing their school colors for a big game.

Their script helmet is mid, but the ref and yellow is always appreciated.

I absolutely love these.  Script Cyclones was big when I was born, and all over my little kid ISU gear.

Loved the Cowboys 94 jerseys. Weird take.

Those unis seem to be love/hate and no middle ground.  I think they suck dead green donkey dick, but it's not like you're in some minority on loving them.

Even though I'm giving you a hard time, we have done worse. This was a shameful period for us. A white bib (like a child?) and the addition of tan accents is an all-time uniform abomination (introduced in 1999 for a brief period):

These specific uniforms have stuck in my mind through the years as possibly the worst uniforms in college football history.

Why are they wearing bibs?

No good reason. Rebranding gone bad. Actually, the NCAA disallowed them the following year because they were "confusing" other teams. Too much white on a dark uniform. The NCAA saved us from ourselves.

Billy Fralic was also a friend of mine. Great guy with a wickedly dry sense of humor. The term “pancake block” originated with him. He played in a high school playoff game, while at Penn Hills H.S., also Aaron Donald’s school, and it was against Central Catholic. My cousin was the biggest kid on the Central line that game and he said that Fralic, then a sophomore, told the Central offensive line, “If you don’t try too hard I won’t have to hurt you”. Which is pretty damned funny.

I loved our uniforms back then. I wish they would tone-down the colors a bit but, I’ll take what I can get after the shit they had in the 90s and onward.

Billy died of cancer a couple years ago.

Steve Pederson was one of the biggest jagoff assholes I have ever dealt with. Ralph Willard being another. Dan Devine, too.

i love the mustard yellow from way back. It was very unique and would make their uniforms a definite 'A' grade.

But you are correct, even with the bright yellow, their current uniforms are much better than the ones introduced in the 90s.

Those kinda suck, imo.

Definitely "meh" compared to some of the better military uniforms recently. Plus, I've never been a fan of grey. But, if you wanna look like an F-16, it's gotta be that color.

Somehow, I forgot the fabulous Thunderbirds are also F-16s. These AFA uniforms from 2010 were a helluva lot better! Awesome helmets

Now that's cool. 

USAFA is my favorite academy, but they fumble the special uniforms more than the other two.

I don't feel like pants color is in the top 3 of the "things that make people look like airplanes" power rankings. 

Jersey color?

More terrible uniforms incoming as Tennessee is switching back to Adidas. 

 

They've let Nike, who is usually the more conservative brand, go off the reservation on their alts. Adidas is going to create some creamsicle crimes against humanity.
