What group of prison inmates designed Virginia Tech's uniforms. Boyzee State's are not much better with the blue socks. This shit looks so ugly I can hardly watch it.

1. One things for sure.
Boise State is for real.

2. Matching grotesque
Nike unleashed.

The numerals are particularly laughable. They look dirty but it's actually tiny ridiculous designs woven into part of the number. Nike decided the numbers needed to pay tribute to some aspect of the school or region's history, even if you can't see them from more than inches away. The Canes version is going to have pond fronds on the numbers.

How bad can a football uniform look? I'll find out once the second half starts...EEK! They're louder than the World Cup vuvuzelas!

4. And I thought Oregon's new uniforms were bad
With the angel wings on the shoulders. Virgina Tech's are much worse. Much.

5. Nike's enough to put me off college football
I can take it if Phil Knight wants his home team uniforms to look like leftovers from a remake of a bad sci fi flick. But who wants that crap on teams all across the country? Both teams' uniforms look awful; at least the blue of Boise State is a bit interesting (I wonder what they'll be wearing back on Smurf Turf?)

7. I liked the uniforms..
particularly the black on VT's helmets. Boise's were nice as well, though I think their helmets should have been all blue...didn't like the horse drawing and the numbers in the back not being centered.

The future is now. Personally, I don't see what's wrong with a little change, but then I'm a fan of Oregon's uniforms too..
