Too bland like that. Looks high school. Why don't we go back to solid jersey, solid pants, and a solid color helmet. Anything else is too busy.

We have real stuff to whine about, and we're wasting our time on uniforms and announcers?

Have either of you seen a high school uniform recently? Bland is the exact opposite of what I would call them. Panels and piping. Most high school unis look like crap.

The best college unis are simple: Texas, Michigan, Notre Dame, USC, Alabama, Penn State. Simple is far different than bland.

I agree to some extent. I just wish the stripes on the shoulders somewhat resembled the stripes on the helmet and pants. They are out of context. Out of place.

See Auburn. No, I'm not for copying their unis.

They look ok. I just wish the SMU lettering was bigger. It's too small and can hardly be read on TV.

how about a compromise-two stripes maximum on the lower sleave. Dallas Cowboys have 2 stripes and they look fine.

Am I Homer because I liked the announcer?

And if things run true to form when most on this board hear that you did not like him, they will change their minds.


Make room on the homer bench if that's what it takes to qualify.

It was heaven sitting there looking at those white helmets again.

As for the stripes, after next week our defense is going to have some added stripes on their backs.

Last night was the first SMU football game I've ever attended. I liked the new uniforms including the stripes, liked the announcer, and even liked the Pony Up guitar playing thing. I'll be at the TCU game also. Do I need a shrink?

No, we are a crabby bunch after losing for 20 yrs. Please come back again!!
Glad you enjoyed the game.
