Traitors new uniforms.

[clonedude]

Cool looking uniforms are not going to make their fans want to travel to places like South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Alabama instead of just driving to Ames, Manhattan, Lawrence, Stillwater, Norman, etc.

Their fans still have to just HATE this move to the SEC. I can't see, as a fan, why you would like this move at all?

I would bet the majority of them did not want to leave the Big 12.

It seems that the internet people did and the fans who aren't on the internet didn't

It seems like the Fizzwho fans living in the southern part of the state, or the ones with the Wal-Mart $$$, were the ones that wanted to go to the SEC. The people in the northern part of the state, particularly the ones in the KC area, wanted nothing to do with the SEC. Of course, the big $$$ donors to Fizzwho are the ones with the Wal-Mart $$$. Guess which people the AD and President were going to listen to...

The helmets are sick! I don't like the black jerseys as much, look too much like Iowa's jersey's.

Didn't JP once say that there were only like 4 D-1 programs that had their mascot on their helmet rather than a letter or word? I can see why that's important now; at first glance, I wasn't quite sure what team this was. There's no "brand identity" here other than a misspelled state and a tiger. That doesn't even set them apart in their own conference, where they are one of three teams named "Tigers".

Now imagine someone from Southern California watching a game...there's a good chance they see this team and have absolutely no clue what program they are.

Iowa
USC
Colorado
Texas
Kansas St.
Arizona St.
Clemson
Louisville
USF
ECU
SMU
Fresno St.
Nevada
New Mexico
Wyoming
Air Force
Arkansas
San Jose St.

And now, Mizzou.

These are all D-1 programs that have mascots/logos on their helmets instead of letters or words. JP's misinformed.

Where the hell are our new Jack Trice unis?

The local West Suburban Chicago high school wore "Jack Trice" striped uniforms in the 20s. They were identical to the Iowa State uniforms in Trice's photos.

In just a few short years I've become an opponent to all of the new rage uniform designs, especially the Oregon uniforms. I'm tired of the trend.

When Alabama changes, then we should change.

Coming from a kid who was indoctrinated into the Crimson Tide fandom at a young age by my father (a UAT graduate), I believe that you are wrong. If our unis were as iconic as Alabama's (or our tradition as strong as Alabama's) then you would have a point.

[Gonzo]

You forgot the Alabama Crimson Tide.

I was sticking to programs that had logos on their helmets closely linked to their mascot and not words or letters. I did leave out Colorado St., Michigan (though the wing isn't a wolverine), and probably others.

their uniforms will look cutesy after several SEC teams welcome them to their new league this coming fall. i hope that mizzou gets their butts spanked this fall!!!!!

[twistedredbird]

[cycopath25]

I'll give em credit. Those are tight.

[acgclone]

Who in the hell watches a game and doesn't know team is playing, regardless of what their helmet says?
