I hear its classic subterfuge and deception-thank goodness they cancelled the Blackout.

They can have the black jerseys as bowl gifts to wear around the house.



Can you sell those?

Henceforth the 2010 Armed Forces Bowl will be known in perpetuity as The Polka-Dot Bowl* Those with cameras please post as many pictures as possible for posterity so we can remember this for years. I thought the annual battle of Red v Blue was funny-this should be Classic.

NO, they should leave them in the closet as a keepsake.

If there wasn't a history of deceiving fans and botched promotions the black jerseys wouldn't be so poorly received.

There are a lot of very gullible people on here.

You're giving me a good laugh Stallion, so please keep it up and fight the good fight.

Looking forward to black unis, but the blackout was a stupid idea. Any-out, except a pastel-out, is stupid with our current fan base.

Sure would have preferred a white mustang on a black helmet so it would pop a little more, especially on television.

Ok, J.J. got black helmets and jerseys to get the team fired up, couldn't he have

done that with a red helmet and a dark blue jersey?, then at least it would still

be our colors and we could wear them more often.

That's not the helmet for tomorrow (I guess it could be), just some replica that is sold on a website. I saw that earlier today when I was searching for SMU black uniform.

yes, it's a replica image that's been around for years.

My money is on, if there are black helmets, a white pony or a red pony with a thick white outline.
