Agree, it's weird to wear white at home.

Cowboys have done it for years.  Love this look.

[Dannymacfan]

I like it!

For some reason I feel it incumbent upon myself to explain the white.  Nike currently does not offer that shade of green in the fabrics for pants and jerseys, so they had to roll with white for these throwbacks.  I'm not sure if we carried more weight with them if that would inspire them to offer it.  I'm sure if it was Texas they would, but most teams are probably in our situation with them on these types of issues.

Fire 🔥🔥🔥 Side note, the general public seems to love our other throwbacks but does not like these ones. lol

This is the downside of being a program like UNT. If "apple green" isn't part of Nike's standard color palette we ain't getting it. They're not going to custom make something for us like they would Oregon or other high profile P5s.

My favorites.

I think its a pretty short list of schools who would get that level of treatment, Oregon being at the pinnacle of it.  Influencing Nike is a tough call but it betters our merchandise situation to use them rather than a smaller supplier who we may have more bargaining chips with.  I'm a Temple High grad and we have a tradition of wearing blue front white back pants.  Sounds weird but they're gorgeous.  We've left suppliers in the past over their willingness to make our pants.  I think the merchandise benefit for NT probably outweighs the customizability of throwbacks for now though.

Love’em…once a year!!!

To clarify, even though I think they’re great, I like only wearing them once a year.

Would be interested in seeing an apple green version if Nike ever made them for sure.

Love those Temple Wildcats pants.  Family is from Rogers, so I saw Temple plenty of times.

Once a year, only at a home game as a sentimental tribute, and NEVER at a bowl game. They do look beautiful but we do need to keep working vigilantly to establish our university's branding.
