The all blue uniforms sucked. Looked like a high school uniform.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

If we were going blue, why not the blue that is now in the end zone? That is the blue I want.

I honestly think our red-zone interception on Kenny Trill was because our guy blended in with the blue end-zone.

I agree with Stallion and PoconoPony concerning the unis.

The chrome helmet stickers are awful. I prefer traditional white helmets also. Blue uniforms are nice.

All blue looks like a 3A high school but whatever.

Unis are lame this year (not talking about helmets). Good thing is I can wear my Zach Line jersey again. Oldschool unis wear the shiat.

Could not agree more with Stallion - that high school crap was an embarrassment. All the more inexplicable when you consider we actually have some good uniform options this year. Boise St. Is not what we should be aspiring to.

Boise State is EXACTLY what we should be aspiring to!

The kids we're recruiting don't want to wear what was cool in 1990.

Get over it. Also most teams with history including ND and Ohio State are doing it.

Good taste never goes out of style, and that includes classic college Unis..

The All Blues sucked.

But IMO, all any color sucks, red on red on red or blue on blue on blue sucks,
reminds me of when I wore my footie PJ's when I was 5 years old.

I don't mind SMU experimenting, and if it helps get recruits, then great. But don't hide the classics away
for too long. Keep them in rotation.

SMU had it pretty close to perfect last year.

I think the uniforms looked classy and classic.
