I think the white helmet is the best you can get.... but I also really like the red jerseys.

What about the possibility of red jerseys with white helmet/red pony? Perhaps blue pants or accents with that?

The fact that we discuss, ad nauseum, uniforms reflect why PB claims he has forgotten more about FB than we all know.

Sorry, but good night: let's discuss RECRUITS & COACHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We've discussed nothing but coaches for the last month, and talking about recruiting is pointless at this time since we have no f'n coach. Uniforms are probably the most relevant thing we can discuss. After that comes complaining about concessions, the stadium in general, parking, the band, the cheerleaders etc.

I'd like to know why Peruna is so slow. I didn't see any handlers get dragged to the ground even once this year!

I think those look damn sharp and would be a good way for a new coach to establish a new identity here.


80s uniforms aren't the classic ones.

I've always said that we could boost attendance and general fandom if we promote a caricature if the SMU stereotype: Big money, buy our way to victory, etc etc. We could even tap into the south dallas market with advertisements featuring "ice" and "bling-bling".

Pony Express Jerseys were better. Skinnier SMU on the front.

The old uniforms do not look good. The old blue is hideous. Our current red jerseys look so Busch league too - look like a High School team. Our Helmets looked good from 1996-1999 when they were white, did not have a stip down the middle. Our all white uniforms were very classy during that era as well. If we go back to the old look, my vote is to go with the uniforms from 2001 season when we changed the colors to dark blue and crimson red. The helmets were white with dark blue and crimson red stripes (like Auburn). These looked damn good too.

The top Ballers from da hood may like the bright colors though, so that they can stand out and look flashier. The flashier the better in da hood.

I think the ballers from da hood really like those TCU uniforms though. I think they look as good as their color combo allows. Their old silver helmets looked good too.

And have you seen this? It's an Adidas jersey. Image



Gorgeous. Simply gorgeous. Somebody email this to Steve O, the football ops guy, adidas, anyone who needs to know.

Nope. They were indeed a lot darker than the regular season jerseys. Blue jerseys look like [deleted] on a white chicken. Stick with the red. Thank you very much.

Anybody have pictures of the 2001 uniforms with the Dark Blue and Crimson Red? This is the last year before the Blue Helmets I believe.
