Nice to see the Tortilla Tossers out there at 'The Little School on the Prairie' promote violence...all over their Unis! smfh

I hope we wear those helmets again. The flying worm looks pretty bad arse!

[Magic95Fan]

Middle's new helmet looks incredible and Tulsa's chrome helmet is completely badarse. Big fan of UTSA's new helmet as well. Props to the conference for not making any glaring bad uni moves.

[NT91]

ULL helmet is the best.

Okay, which UNT helmet designer flooded the Southern Miss alternate helmet ballot?

Interesting player perspective from this Big 12 poll...

http://espn.go.com/blog/big12/post/_/id/69715/players-tab-tcu-the-big-12-favorite

Who has the best uniforms in the league?

Oklahoma State, 43%
TCU, 21%
Baylor, 14%

What they said:

“I really like Oklahoma State’s – they’re pretty cool.”

"Kansas’ new baby blues are icy."

“The best is Baylor’s black uniforms.”

Who has the worst uniforms?

Kansas State, 32%
Iowa State, 18%
Oklahoma, 18%
Texas, 14%

What they said:

"You know everybody will say us. We've got the worst uniforms – but you said we can't say our own team."

“Not the biggest fan of Kansas State’s white. I like the purple, the purple and silver is a lot better.”

More support for the idea that uni combination craziness & modernization is attractive to the young college athlete compared to traditional, timeless looks.

[UNT 90 Grad]

ULL helmet is the best.

6 different helmets? Geez.

The black helmet with the fleur de lis

I read the title of this thread all wrong... kinda disappointed. I thought UNT was going to be in new uniforms by the time conference play started.

The whole new style Nike warrior glove logo shiny helmet multi-colored uniform look reminds me of cartoon robots on Fox and superhero costumes of the 1940s. Who will be the first team to break out the capes? How will they get six-pack ab muscles to protrude through jerseys going forward? Does the NCAA allow for limousine black tinted facemasks? Can we get some sparky fiery afterburners in the heels of the shoes to be deployed at the five yard line after the last defender has been defeated?

Somewhere under all this Flo-Jo nonsense there's supposed to be a football player, right? When...the...hell did sports become so middle school girl cafeteria table fashion conscious?

I am an old, bitter man, and I'd like you to kindly get off my lawn now.

Capes. Great Idea.

So would "pulling someone's cape" be equivalent to pulling someone's flag in flag football? I think it should be.

Interesting interview in USA Today with Gary Paterson of TCU. He says that he once didn't think that uniforms mattered in recruiting, but that it does.

For them--it does.

I like the UTSA helmet. It's nice that they recognize their Texas heritage by putting the State logo and star where they're located. Probably designed by an alum. Oh, that our school couldn't use the my NT logo with the Texas Star. Sigh...

Oh well. "Thanks" Lee Jackson! Jackass.

GO MEAN GREEN!

Your old road is

Rapidly agin'

Please get out of the new one

If you can't lend your hand

For the times they are a-changin'.
