The black uniforms should not be worn against a team that has black as a predominant color. I’ll die on that hill.

Honestly would have liked them to save it until K State but I digress.

I'm counting down to Campbell putting them in B/B/G as a troll job to Iowa next season.

Hope the lights work well.

My wife is a UCF grad (not much of a sports fan, though).

I told her we were doing the "blackout" thing on Saturday night.

She didn't get it.

"Why do that against a black team like UCF?"
I guess because.. we do what we want... and we dont care what other schools wear or their colors are?

Just win is all I can say, at this point.

I mean it is fun how much it breaks Hok fans brains though.

Iowa State was smart to not do faux leather helmets like Illinois. Never looks good.

Actually it was probably because we couldn't pay for/didn't want to waste money for a one off helmet lol. But either way our Ames helmets were better.

In honor of Cy's birthday, I wish they'd slap the regular, old walking Cy sticker on those black helmets. I really think that would pop with the black as the background. I don't personally enjoy the black uniforms, but this compromise would go a long way to swinging my opinion.

I'm hoping for C/C/G.

Bring out the gold pants. Please. Some contrast with the Tech red/black/white mixture.

I just want to see them once this season. Prove they're not a fever dream.

But don't lose in them.

If we lose in them Campbell will be like, "SEE! TOLD YOU!" and we'll never see them again.
