can you reverse the colors?

 

[TheJackWePack5]

White, Red, White. Similar to the 2016 ass whooping

This was my first thought as well.

I tend to agree that some cardinal/gold added to the blacks would be good, but the more I see the alternates we wore the more I like their simplicity...still a "storm" template, plenty of cardinal and gold on field, stands, tv graphics, etc.

In addition to the edits above, the Simpson College (Indianola, IA) uniforms look a lot like what has been suggested:

I am not sure so please help me. Were our original colors black and white? Do teams confer about unis before they play? It seems like WV white vs ISU Black was predetermined. This should be done more IMHO. If black, grey,gold, ...pink tutus, helps recruiting- I’m in.

Iowa State's (Iowa Agricultural College/Iowa State College's) colors were Silver, Gold and Black until 1899, when they made the change to Cardinal and Gold.

So good ideas for augmenting the black look, but ultimately I'd prefer we add gold helmets and pants to the to the template before trying to tweak the black set.

 

[bgprest]

It wouldn't. The shade of cardinal, even if it were chrome, would be so hard to see up against a black background. Darker shades of red do not look good at all against black.

I think a silver chrome or even gold chrome I-State logo would look sharp on the black helmets.

"Last, Black, denoting death, assigned to the Vet Department who kill but never cure."

I hope this has changed in the past century!

That's just what I was thinking.

almost approach the bounds of superfluity

 

[Sigmapolis]

We have not repeated a combination this season. We might not...?

Sure, but red generally does not show up well on a black background.

Hold up...

When did we announce the Tech combo?

Just my personal hope.

We have not worn that one this year.

It went really well the last time we did against Texas Tech.

Just saw that Nebraska is doing alternate uniforms yet this year. This version is going back to the first year of Memorial Stadium in the year 1918. Say what you want about the school, their record, their coach, their nickname- but what I really want to point out here is look at the dark vertical stripes they have under their numbers. These uniforms going back to the same era as Jack Trice and now seeing an actual uniform incorporate the vertical stripe it would be pretty sweet if ISU could pull off a commemorative uniform for JT's 100 year anniversary coming up in a couple years.
