Looks like the Phony Pony on the pants. You'd think they could get that right.

New Adidas Uniforms 2011

Plus, once they put them on, we have no impact on the outcome.

I'm a big fan of the stripes. Glad they kept that feature. Also a fan of the white socks. You could take the "SMU" off the jersey - the red Pony says it all.

I hear they're going with that new tight fitting jersey look. Pony Up!

1. The pant stripes appear to be larger. Good move. They appear symmetrical with the helmet now.
6. Red Jersey. Too bad not school color - crimson.

1. The "thin" pant stripes always looked awkward. I hope they turn out wider - like they're pictured here.
6. Ran across an original athletic department, typewritten summary of the 1947 season (scores, personnel, season statistics, coaches).
Listed on the cover page:
"School Colors: Royal Blue and Cardinal" and that was 64 years ago...
Guess our colors should be: "TBD" or "Undecided"

The late George Carlin had a routine about fans becoming annoyingly passionate over school colors, which sums it up for me.

It went something like this:

"When you're at your school, your fans will scream, WE HAVE TO FIGHT FOR THE CARDINAL AND GOLD. FIGHT FOR THE CARDINAL AND GOLD....
...
"It's [deleted] -ing red and yellow, man. [deleted] -ing red and yellow.''


We're SMU and our colors our Red and Blue. I could care less what kind of blue and what kind of red it actually is.

2. Those ridiculous stripes on the jersey. Stupid, silly look'n.

3. 'SMU' on front of jersey. WAY TOO SMALL!!! (Are they embarrassed???)

4. White Socks. Thank the Good LORD!!!

5. Black shoes. OK but "white" 80's-style would be great, too.

6. Red Jersey. Too bad not school color - crimson.

Overall - some improvement.


Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man

:roll: Good grief. They're fine.


Agreed. I LOVE these jersey's. Especially compared to what we wore during the PB era.

Indifferent about what our colors actually are. They look Red and Blue to me.
