I miss this era because alternate uniforms felt like special events instead of the norm. I really want to go back to one home uniform, one away uniform and an alternate one game per year. That way teams have strong, identifiable main looks and the alternates stick out way more

I'm a fan of both Tennessee and Michigan State and I think both have done well at having plenty of variety in their uniforms without straying away from the traditional. Tennessee has always mixed and matched their orange and white combos, but now they have the smokey gray and the dark mode. Both of which honor school tradition and are also favorites of the fans, players, and recruits. They brought out an orange helmet last year too, and also wore some baby blue to honor Pat Summit and Lady Vols. All of their alternates, even as simple as orange jersey with orange pants (something they've done for years) still feel special every time. They've basically just incorporated the color schemes that fans have been wearing for years. And MSU has plenty of options too with the all white, all black, the chrome helmet, and the neon green accent (a color they've brought into their color scheme over the years). Variety is very important and as long as my teams don't end up like Oregon then I'm all for it

Oregon just took this idea and went to the moon with it. They were so fun to watch around this time with Chip's high-powered offense and their branding was elite. I still have my "No Huddle No Mercy" shirt and while it's definitely seen better days, it's still so badass. It was really exciting to see what they would bring each week, both uniform and performance-wise.

Very alien to me as an Alabama fan as well. I was a little disappointed back then that our pro-combat uniforms were barely changed, as schools like Oregon were getting new uniforms every week, but the more I think about it, I’m not sure I would’ve gone any further than houndstooth numbers and an American flag on the shoulders. It’s simple, it’s clean. Maybe the only thing I’d have done is turn the Opacity up a little so the pattern shows up more, because it never showed up in the games
