No, the stripe is to help the team identify offense vs. defense.
Actually it is for the skilled positions players. It is to help show where the player is looking
I know they do that in practice, but why would they have the practice stripe on the game-ready helmet while wearing the actual game jerseys?
It'd benefit from a tie-in color on the pants in some way. Alternative is to have a helmet and jersey with white accents, but that probably isn't worth it as long as C-C-W happens only once per season. Plain-white pants work fine with W-C-W, all-white and C-W-W, and WWW is bound to occur multiple times.
This was probably already posted, and while I am never going to like colored jersey numbers that do not match the color of the pants, just a little bit of color on the white pants...
...would go a long ways towards holding the whole look together if somebody insisted. I really love the "Orrnado" stripe on the basketball uniforms -- I wish we would do the same unique motif on the football uniforms. The current set is clean, but it is relatively bland.
Why do the replica jerseys fans can buy always look like garbage?
Numbers and lightning bolt on the sleeves on this years replicas are obnoxiously big

Alright, were going back to this...
ZB4CY does a service to the community by calling us to remember the near miss we had from that single week reveal+removal of the upside down poop emoji/bugle fail.
Like a wise Stoic, he reminds us to always temper our justified critique and desire for improvement, with gratitude for the bad that could have been, and has thus far been avoided:
With that in mind, yes - we need some simple unifying stripes on pants at least, or matching socks as a substitute if not. Maybe the MBB "Orr" stripes would be too much across a pile of FB players, but something simple on the helmet and pants (no New Orleans Saints yoga pants!) can still look "clean".

I keep checking the Chinese sites to see if they have Purdy, Montgomery, or Butler up. I'm guessing with the numbers they aren't going to mess with it.
Lol I have been doing the exact same. My coworker got an LSU jersey customized through fanatics for name and number. Disappointing they don't have that available for Iowa State apparel.
Does this mean we're going to go chrome, black, black? Because I don't want to wear black vs. Iowa. But that's just me.
That sounds like something that Campbell would do just to troll them.
