It's that time of the week again and with the upcoming game against the turtles - I thought today would be a good time to discuss
UNIFORMS I picked that color combination because those are Maryland's colors. Yes, I know. Not good.
So, I hate to start off with the best, but since I've already brought it up, I feel like I have to. There are two dueling uniform companies for the NCAA - Under Armour (we must protect this house) and Nike. In my opinion, under armor does a sub par job on unis, and nike is the OBVIOUS choice, but maybe I am biased. (USC has under armor unis - so terrible and they will not be featured today).
Maryland's new unis -

I'm torn. When I first saw them, I was in shock and thought NNNNNOOOOOO, but the more I look at them, the more they grow on me. I'm not a fan of the Maryland state flag anyway, but at least they're representing, right? Am I right?
p.s. these are the old Maryland uniforms -

A step up in my opinion.
Some of my fav unis -

These are so under armour-like that I thought they were Nike uniforms. My colleague at work, Drew, mentioned they were Under Armour so I thought I'd give them props. Whatever you're doing here UA, apply it everywhere else because these look great. I think we've got a combination of good colors with traditional stripes and it makes for a good uniform.
Ours (my ours, I mean Clemson), is a good example of a traditional uniform as well.

Non - Traditional
Nike loves to pick a couple of school and makes non traditional uniforms. They are so controversial and I love talking about it. Here are some examples -
