VT to wear black jerseys against Boise?

[Jessica4Bama]

Those are pretty ugly.

 

[ROLLTRIBE]

I sure hope Bama never does anything like that.....:mad2:

 

[Jessica4Bama]

Also, this gets me thinking what Alabama's will look like for that one game. I guess we will see on Wednesday.

VT's colors used to be cadet grey and black.

I would take that over maroon and orange.

Eh, Boise has their own gimmick with their blue field. Maybe Va Tech figures this gimmick will confuse 'em or something.

"When a team has to resort to gimmicks on the field, it's a sure indication that they have real problems off the field." Coach Gene Stallings

This doesn't bode well for the Hokies...

Yep...

this is the first pro combat uniform that i haven't liked.

The next one I like will be my first.

Will you like Bama's?

I don't think ours will be bad, however.

Aren't Boise's home jersey's blue? Just what the game needs, black and blue. I can see all the "bruise" jokes coming!:biggrin:

 

[GrayTide]

This is my official policy statement on using the color black in a team's uniforms:

If black is one of the team's primary colors then the use of black is permissable. If black is not one of the team's primary colors then its use results in vacating at least one win and the loss of 13 scholarships in the following year.

Owww! Oh my eyes. My eyes!! Make it go away. PLEASE!!

Follow the money.

This is a marketing plan to sell more Nike merchandise. When will it come to Bama? Link:

Did I see glove listed? I sure hope they sell the style Ingram wore in the championship game. I would have to get me some!

Damned ugly.

Do they really need gimmicks to motivate the team in this game?

I don't even understand how wearing a black jersey is supposed to motivate a team. It's just a different color. I don't get it. :conf3:

 

[TheRealPokeChop]

this is what happens when your school has no real identity, or at least doesn't realize it has an identity...you resort to gimmicks and garbage. Not to mention, that jersey is hideously ugly.

Keep in mind we will be wearing Pro Combat uni's at least once this season.

They will reveal Alabama's this Wednesday? I really hope they kept it pretty plain. I know things have to change eventually, but they don't have to take it as far as VT's. Those are terrible, as are about all of these Nike Pro Combat uniforms.

 

[TheRealPokeChop]

Our Nike Pro Combat uniforms will be unveiled in NYC, Wednesday at 9 AM CST btw.

 

[BocaLance]

Fuugly.
That's all I got.

Okay, no, wait .. there's more.

A - Going with the black home unis automatically makes Boise legitimate (at least in their own minds.)

B - If you're GOING to go with the black unis, why not a more important rivalry game?

C. - Since when did TRON begin influencing the college football uniform fashion landscape?
