I don't care what we look like so long as we win.

The Colorado Jersey's look like something a girl should wear.

Amen!  Preach it loud, brother!  The guy in the article makes some good points about the uni changes.

stlchiroHOG

like it was said earlier, this guy does a uni watch......i mean come on, he has nothing else to write about other than uniforms?

THat guy is definately not for change.

What 's up with ARKANSAS cross the front????? Bring back HOGS
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

prudence. Dickart History of Kershaws Brigade.

He did make a point about the name covering the stripes, to be fair.

Wasn't it Colorado that had the girl placekicker?  Just saying . . .

Have to say I liked last year's unis also....

As an aside... taking a look at this guy I can just imagine the ecstasy he experienced when he found out he was able to review football uniforms on young guys.

I agree, would it be a problem to go without names on the back?

No he doesn't.  Most players besides Fish will be wearing a size larger than youth small (YS).

Wow, that's pretty classy. Really mature to pass judgement on folks without ever meeting them in person. I have never met him, but have checked out his blog. That does not give me the right to judge the guy, but I'm pretty sure he's not of the assumption you think he is. He does get paid to talk about uniforms. That is his job. And he does write about other things as well.
He makes good points about the jersey, it's the new adidas template. I'm indifferent about them, but I really liked the uniforms Arkansas had the past couple of seasons. It was a nice classic look.

Can someone from espn please find something to critisize about our: school/state/coach/uni's and etc.

I'm not a fan of "sportswriters" who write about such things as a team's uniforms.  They should send him to Paris to cover the futbol.

No offense to the writer but what he thinks is cool isn't the same thing that is cool to an 18 year old.  I personally agree with him; I like traditional uniforms too but what I like more than that is winning and if crazy uniforms makes even one kid look at Arkansas than go crazy.

How much do they pay you to write about uniforms?

conman_7

Throw out the idea of the white being "tusks".  And I say they look pretty good!!  I know that a lot of old timers or traditionalists won't like things to change but get over it,  its 2008 look around things change.  (not always for the the better I know)  But I like the Uni's.

VirlBlack

Sad, but I do have to agree with him.  I think those "tusks" look ridiculous.

On a scale of "DGB is a Hog" to "Bobby had a girl on the back of that bike," how sure are you?

I don't understand what all the talk about uniforms is about in the first place. If every team would just wear the classic ORANGE and White then life would be grand for all.... :)

They don't. I was just voicing my opinion about what I thought like everyone else on here. I apologize if I am not allowed to do so.

That guy is apparently a pee-on who begged and begged to be able to write an article.  So they told him to write one on jerseys.  "Here's you an assignment...schmuck."  "Oh and don't forget to include a lot of links embedded in the text...loser"

Opinion or passing judgement?  That's what I was doing right?

I think the opposite. I thought that the ARKANSAS on the unis last year were way too big but the new one is about the right size.  I would like to see us go to the jerseys Kentucky wore last year. I thought they were tight.

Looks like FIU is switching to basically the same Jersey's that we have.  I wonder if our pants will look like this.


usnavyhogfan

I've got a C-note that says they are just like these.  The stripe on the rib cage curves around to the back and matches up with those stripes on the pant leg.  I think they will look tight.

Too many teams with the rib cage tusks.  Even ones with no connection to tusks.  Therefore those must not be tusks...

Who cares what they are, I guess, if you just win, baby.

But, I'm rather traditional about unis and hate to see good looking uniforms messed with.

Hogbody

I must say, I don't give a crap about what Uni's look like so long as a good Football teams is put on the field.

Hog-O-Licious

you know why i opened this?  to make fun of all you silly girls who care about how fashionable our uniforms  look.  "ohhhhh, im not sure about the white stripes with the red pants, maybe we should.........."  whatever fashion freaks.  go dress up your boyfriends, weirdos.

Think the new jersey is cool.  Hopefully we'll incorporate a black uni to really piss of the old school 

pigsooie_73

I'm of the assumption that if Bobby Petrino can win at an .800 clip that no one will give a damn about what the uniforms will look like. Traditionalists may gripe and whine now and recruits might think that the new uniforms are cool, but winning will be all that matters in the end.

No big deal, I like the jerseys, just stay away from red pants. The next step will be changing the helmet color to white.
