Hey this IU girl is cute and can probably lift your car up if you get a flat. Best of both worlds.

Make sure you have a safe word during 'hand stuff'.

I see no reason that Navy should ever wear anything but these or a "dress blues" equivalent with the same helmet and pants for home games.

Great uniforms. Hopefully Army doesn't every use digital camo again. I understand why they did it, but I didn't like it on a football uniform.

Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad. These were fucking awesome.

Baylor has some beautiful uniforms when they stay simple.  When they get weird, it goes to hell.  OK State is the same way.  I'm not sure why they decided to be the Oregon of the Plains, but their basic set ups and throwbacks often look great.

Favorite Baylor set up

Baylor is green and gold. I loved the gold helmets. Generally - the helmet instability (non-throwback) drives me a little cray cray.

So you want  Navy to wear Marine Corps uniforms? And is that a man or woman second from left?

Those Navy unis look slick; will be interesting to see what Army comes up with for this year's game.  I really liked their past two unis honoring the 82nd Airborne and 10th Mountain Divisions.

Both Academies have had very strong uni game the past few seasons...

A life lesson: Baylor has one player convicted, who I don't believe actually ever played. Coach fired, program destroyed. FSU acknowledges a conspiracy and cover-up among school, cops, athletics ... Winston gets a Heisman and coach ... well, okay ... mixed there: got $100M but also got aggy. #espn

I mean, LSU’s current uniforms are almost perfect, but I love those and the message and explanation behind them. 

fuck no

first rule of uniforms, don't change your helmets. LSU wears yellow helmets. it's not difficult.  here are the three best and most iconic helmets in college football without argument or equivocation, and what they have in common is that they are scarcely, if at all, changed in the lifetime of most college football fans

oh and the "reason" for LSU's candy-ass helmets, and OU wearing white helmets, and Ohio State having an alternate helmet every year? it's because it would be unseemly for the athletic director to literally suck a shoe company president's dick at midfield so they have to settle for doing it figuratively

Lies.  I was told only aggy boys went to war while everyone else sat back and drank tea.  How dare LSU claim to have contributed to victory.

Heaven forbid LSU use (good) uniforms to honor soldiers who fought for the freedom for you to post something that stupid.

There's plenty of ways to honor the troops besides gimmicky alternate uniforms.

did you know that the Chinese don't have a word for "naive"? 

Did you know it’s possible for two things to be a true at once?

the main point is that those aren’t bad (they aren’t), and that LSU has great uniforms.

And two of the three examples you used have had alternate helmets within the past years.

How many years now have ND been using alternate helmets for their Irish Series?  Have always loved LSU’s colors and unis, if I could make one change it would either be to rid the helmet of LSU or the Tiger, think having both is a bit busy looking.

Hey late to the party but what was the deal with Iowa State wearing all black last week vs WVU?

They wanted to nail down the prize for the stupidest uni's in all of CFB. (Well, not counting Oregon.)

The deal is that it looked awesome. Although some of the players wore their regular cardinal and gold underneath and it looked awkward when it poked through.

Also those LSU helmets are incredible.

Really? What specifically looked awesome? There is nothing remotely interesting or unique (about 75% of D-I teams have work an all-black uni) about these, and they do nothing to reinforce Iowa St's brand. They're lame.

A) They look super clean

B) Iowa State's standard uniforms are a knockoff of USC's. Anything that moves them away from that and in their own direction is a positive. Together with the all-cardinal and all-white look they look really fresh.

Agree on getting away from the USC look - the white and cardinal in the pic are good (though gold or white pants would look better with the cardinal jersey)...

I'm just not seeing it with the black-and-white. It does nothing to distinguish them in any way. Different strokes, I suppose...

A uniform can simultaneously look clean but also in no way characteristic of the school wearing.  Any all black uni with no stripes, white numbers and a black and white helmet logo would look as clean as ISU's all-blacks, but it would also be boring as hell if every home team wore that. 

I personally like unique uniforms that easily identify who a team is.  There's a reason why the NFL, for ex., tries to make sure each team has a distinct visual brand.

Those LSU helmets look like a cross between a bass boat and a bowling bowl

They’re not USC knockoffs anymore, as the picture you posted clearly demonstrates. Changed the design this year.

Regardless, the black is terrible. It’s not their own direction-it’s derivative of every insipid black alternate uniform we’ve been subjected to for the past 15 years.

There's nothing wrong with having a black alternate. Heck, it's exactly what we do in basketball. So do plenty of other teams.

Technically we have our own (ugly) black and burnt-orange jersey for football, we just don't use it outside of practice. They don't look great though, Iowa State does it better,

LSU wearing purple jerseys with white helmets looks great. Those above look great though I might prefer a regular purple helmet. Need to see that color change in game. 

Also, florida’s white helmet and blue F look great with all th uniform combinations they’ve used it with, but my favorite is the white blue white.

Agree on this piece. There can be more than one red and gold team, and ISU doesn't have those pointy shoulder stripes that SC does. If you flip to them on TV and know even a tiny bit about football, you know that's not SC instantly. The black collar on the home reds is still a bit fucky though.

Black and white's look good and remind of Stanford's during the Luck era

Why does LSU refuse to wear purple jerseys at home? For the same reason it has numbers painted every 5 yards instead of 10?

I wish they did. Their purple jerseys look good and I prefer tradition of wearing color at home and white on the road.

IIRC, they wear purple when they play in-state schools.
