Iowa State Uniform Discussions (update: new basketball unis)

I'd guess w/c/w. You can just barely see maybe the white pant in the pic, at the bottom.

They are being a bit mysterious this year, so far. LOL

After (or should I say, before) 1 game!

Yeah, was the tweet with the lockers and the black helmets an attempt to throw people off the other day?

There was a "reveal" leading to UT game last season, one of the cardinal/white combos, and game day it was all-black. So I'm not putting money on this.

(Note: I do not expect any kind of black combo for this game, just saying it isn't always accurate)

Mystery, I tell ya. Doodoo, doodoo, doodoo! Who's to say what it'll be tomorrow.

It’s WCW….. how much of a hint do you need?

We are saying they like to play tricks. Most likely this is the combo, but they be tricky sometimes.

Are we sure those are pants? Maybe it's just a towel!

It could be a trick... but have they ever done that before?

There are no tricks for an *untelevised game against a vastly inferior opponent in a non-sold out stadium.

* You know what I mean

Many times.

What game did they bring out the poop bugle? I dont remember.

Not that I think they will do something this game. I just was trying to remember.

Texas Thursday night debacle.

(I think I noted this earlier) - Texas game last year was promo'd as a cardinal/white combo of some kind, but used all-black. (But maybe there was a black reveal later in the week and I missed it, I was traveling to see the game).

I want to see what WBW or WBB would look like with the exact helmet we're wearing today.

I bet there's an unexpected switch at game time to black Gatorade.

 

[clonedude]

Black cleats huh..... interesting. I think I like that!

I'm in the camp that believes 2 of 3 need to match; helmet & pants being the traditional combo that usually looks best. In this case, the pants should be red or gold and it'd look a lot better. I also prefer white numbers. This is my favorite uniform combo:

This is probably my fave all-time uni & combo

I love the helmet - love the jersey - love the plain cardinal pants - love the combo of gold/card/card + white socks & black shoes

This same color combo would look awesome with our current uni-set (if only we had a gold helmet... )

I might not go full-on LSU-home-white concept, but I do think one game per season with cardinal-white-cardinal at home would be sharp.

One choice for uniform contrast would be when CyHawk game is at home. (And it gives a mini-nod to tradition of the series, without it being full-on "huge game")

Alternate seasons select it for some other opponent, depending how the slate falls.

I would not be disappointed if we wore CWC every game - such a sharp & classic combo

Nerd alert: wordmarks in endzones are cardinal with gold outline (traditionally been gold with cardinal outline)

Kind if wish they'd do that on the home basketball unis, too.
