What Uniforms?

[NT91]

Any news on the uniform selection for the SMU game?

[mdmeangreen]

Storm Trooper or all green, would be my preference. 

You?

I don't think the 2018 Mean Green Uni Bracket has been completed yet:

An all green would be awesome.   In the meantime, New Denton.

Hoping for green top/white pants.  Not an all green fan.

[NT93]

Being the superstitious type, I'm going to go with "anything but grey tops and black pants."

Since it’s a home game, I don’t think you have to worry about that.  However, you might also hope we don’t go with green tops and white pants & helmets.

My guess will be green t-shirts, khaki pants, black socks and shoes with a green baseball cap.

I don’t care for the names of those uniforms. I shall name them myself. And I am really hoping we wear our ‘Sweet Sassy Molassy’ Unis for SMU.

Will we ever be wearing Jordan branded uniforms or ever have the chance to buy Jordan gear?  There is a video of coach with a Jordan branded shirt on the website.

Barring any surprise uniform for the team, I think the players should get to vote for every combo they wear week to week. 

I'll admit I definitely have my opinions on what we wear, but the bottom line is let's make sure we have every advantage no matter how small.  

If the uniform helps to fuel the fire, let the team enjoy what they vote for.

I've always liked the idea of using uniform decisions to reward players' practice efforts.  Maybe standout practice players are selected during the week to be part of a group that determines the uniform combination for a given game.  For all I know, the staff may already have considered or implemented something like this.

As for surprise uniforms, from the annual ESPN Uni-Watch CFB Preview column...

Quote

"Also: A team spokesperson says the Mean Green will have a "special surprise uniform set" for one game this season. No details yet regarding the game or opponent."

I'm guessing a uni surprise is planned for FAU given the opponent and fact that it's a nationally broadcast home game.

All green would be nice. With a specialized helmet that says Ponies Suck or CJK5H on it.

Count me as someone who hopes we NEVER go all green. That'd be like if Texas wore all orange...yuck

My guess for SMU is the "Green Force" combo

But they're called "The Longhorns", not "The Mean Orange".

This is definitely a case of me being an old man... because i do not understand the big deal between having the checkmark  vs having jordan on your uniform. especially when everything else is exactly the same

Throwback Uniforms are going to make an appearance this year so be on the look out. Possibly week 5

[UNTLifer]

Per the link above, gray pants are being added.  I'll be the first to dislike those sight unseen.  I also noticed a "surprise" set is coming to one game.  Hope it is a throwback as @Withers940 mentioned above.

I used to work for a national sporting goods company that helped with the jerseys this year and an old coworker of mine told me to be on the look out for throw backs week 5. Whether this is true or not, we shall see. His hint on the throw backs though have me super excited.

 

Think waaaaaaaaaay back
