Michigan changing up Uniforms

Postby WorldStang » Fri May 20, 2005 11:29 am

They've added yellow piping to their road jerseys and done away with the Block "M" on the uniform.

Uniforms that are that tradition-laden and unique should not be messed with.

:shock: So the ones we wore in the 80's were not? I'm assuming you're including our changes too. I really wish they would quit changing our uniforms every other year..

With the exception of changing the old "royal blue" look to "navy blue" .. our uniforms were sooo good looking! SMU.. Please take back your red uniforms and blue helmets.. and give me the navy blue jersey and white helmet/red mustang!!

If you are going to make that argument, why not go back to the uniforms from the 70s? 60s? 40s? You can't make the argument that we have much of a tradition in uniforms, especially helmets.

BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

I wish we would go back to the 80's Pony Express look.

I sense there is a strong consensus for a return to the 80's look, but I think we are only going to see minor changes to the existing uniform this year.

Interesting concept of consensus...five or six of you out of how many? Just for the hell of it why don't you run a poll and get the true consensus...you might even be right.

As long as Michigan keeps that helmet they will always be just fine.
