Not sure, but it looks like this could be them? Not sure what I think. I doubt they go with a gold helmet as well if these are what they are going to wear.
I happen to think that is one sharp looking jersey (though I see the maxi-pads lurking on shoulder). If there's a black helmet game, it would go nicely with that jersey and throwback black pants.

I'm definitely buying one.
An Allbuffs brother posted something a few days ago, who said they were adding a little green to the gold. Well, I like the new look. But there were many previous versions I like better.

Yeah Baby! With those thin-line Buffalo horns, like Joe Romig wore!

Where did you find the jersey? Are they available to buy yet?

Forgive me for my ignorance but when did we ever wear Gold jerseys? Is this anything more than a Nike "alternate" jersey?
On the other hand, I did hear we would wear throwbacks for Wyo.

Here's a website that has all the teams helmets from the past..

I think we should honor the ones from 69-76 but the silver ones look cool also..

I agree with the helmets. Both the "CU" Gold 69-76 and all the silver are cool. I am just questioning the Gold jerseys.
Maybe Bill is right and it is Gold Jerseys and Silver helmets ala 50s.

66-78 are all good with that jersey but especially 67. I like that helmet.

Those jerseys are selling for $60 on cubuffs.com.

Black helmets = not throwbacks
Unless we are throwing it back to the new-weasel era.
Although you are absolutely right. Black on Gold would be great to see as a change up.

I have many times. For instance, once, when I was crashing on a buddy's couch he woke me up by yelling, "what the **** are you doing!!!" It turns out I was pissing on his television.
Oh, you can miss with the whiz...

I think the 1969 Mizzou helmets pretty much summed it up...
66-78 are all good with that jersey but especially 67. I like that helmet.
I'd like that, but then you have to produce individual helmets with individualized #s. That'd be cool, but I bet they just produce 80 of the same helmets.
Good point

They are the Whizzer White throwbacks. Below is the description from the website. Interesting that says, "this jersey will ship the week of Sept. 6". My guess is that these are our jerseys for the Wyoming game.:
Nike Throwback Byron "Whizzer" White Football Jersey Pre-Order your CU Football Throwback Jersey featuring #24 Byron "Whizzer" White. This jersey is inspired by the football jersey that was worn by White during his time as a Colorado Buffalo from 1935-1937. White was known as the "60 minute performer" as he excelled in offense, defense and special teams. He was the first All-American in football at Colorado and led the Buffaloes to their first ever bowl appearance in 1937. He was also the lone inaugural inductee into the University of Colorado Athletic Hall of Fame. White will always be remembered as a star athlete at Colorado and here is a great way to show that his spirit keeps on living. The jersey comes in vegas gold and is made of 100% polyester. By Nike Team Sports. Please note this jersey will ship the week of Sept. 6th.
so tempting
