I guess we can’t complain when Bronco fans call us NTSU this week. 🤣

It's actually smart....takes it away from them a little when we call ourselves NTSU this week....

Singing glory to the green, singing glory to the white,

For we know our university is striving for the right;

Down the corridor of years, we'll forget the joys and tears,

But North Texas, North Texas, we love!

Just curious, but when did the original words to the song get changed. It was originally "For we know our University is forever in the right"

I really like them, but I will never be able to unsee the mismatch between the green on the numbers and the green on the helmet.

Ummm, they match.

I sort of like the way that they have embraced the North Texas State.  For too long it was considered a badge of shame and used as a negative from our enemies like SMU.  Why not embrace a good period in our history?

I have "North Texas State" on my diploma (along with C.C. Nolan's signature) and I don't have any plans to request an update (UNT) for it.  I never felt any shame with NTSU......just a little annoyance. I (like so many alums before me) just refer to my alma mater as "North Texas".  But I am aware that NTSU was a compromise name. Our first choice back in 1961 was UNT.

The numbers are a pretty pronounced shade or two lighter than the logos and stripes on the helmet.

Let's see them in person.  Lighting for the photos could create that variance.

agree

and there are NTSU grads that are more upset about UNT then the other way around...

Let's embrace both

I want to clear  I don't think it is any shame coming from UNT grads but its places like SMU and other self absorbed types that seem to use it in a derogatory way.

Yes, I feel like the lighting is reflecting making them appear lighter.

I’m not a fan of the all white uniform, but this looks really good. The bright kelly green really pops on the white with the dark green outlines. Best uniform worn this weekend in all of the ncaa...

The name of the team is MEAN GREEN. These are probably the least mean looking unis in all of college football.   And they are ugly.  The logo sucks, the colors suck.    They should be dark green with black and not a terrible attempt to modernize the logo.     The unis are the least of the problems, but since this is the discussion, these unis are horrible

They may be iconic but they are never cool. Anymore than these are....

I always referred to these uni's as the "ordered from J.C. Penny uni's"
