I like all of those. Especially the helmet with the number.
 
Buffs should have been on the matte black helmet train 5 years ago
 
There's going to be 80-90 teams in the NCAA sporting multiple jerseys and helmets soon. Those REALLY desperate for a pop, like the KU's, Indiana's, and Arizona's of the world are going to have 5 DIFFERENT combinations. Is Oiler baby blue even an official KU color? That's the problem. Now they are going to tie in colors that aren't even part of the official color scheme. We've seen it with WHoregon. They now wear Yellow, green, black, silver, gray, metallic, white, camo, etc, etc. School colors are being muted. They might as well say, it doesn't matter what the school colors are. What will it take to get you here, top 100 recruit? That's the colors we'll wear.

The NCAA and conferences would go a long way to put limits on this type of crap. Make it like the NFL where you can have a home and road uni. If you want to wear a special alternate for two games a year, you need league approval and we would like to know what games. All of this uni non-sense was cool at first but now it's just out of hand.

I'm starting to agree. Now that everyone has them it takes the uniqueness out of it and I'm not sure it's a big recruiting tool anymore for the majority of the schools.

So, back to silver and gold for the Buffs?
 
Not actually all that impressed with the gold helmets. The black unis are okay, but the matte black thing has been done several times now, so not that novel.
 

It makes me sad that the team I grew up rooting for now trails nebraska and Baylor only slightly for teams that I hate.

Can nobody else reconcile Nike's merchandizing arm, known as the Ducks, with the other thread about college football becoming more like the NFL?
 
That Illinois helmet actually isn't that bad. Probably because it somewhat sticks to tradition and has the actual school colors.
