agreed or at least the steel lids instead of white, but i thought the combo really wasn't that bad it looked cool in a drizzly Autzen enviorment, plus we actually are sporting colors of an actual duck

Horrible combo, would have looked better with white pants.
I am not sure those steel pants are going to look good on ANY combo they are that ugly.
Um, can we wear some friggen YELLOW for a change?

I didn't think they looked bad, the chrome went with the wings. Green helmets would've looked weird.

The uniforms were simply awful!

It's Casey Martin's fault.

Chip Kelly needs to step in and let the players vote on the uniform combinations from now on.

Don't they know that what you wear affects your self esteem? If my girlfriend or wife were in the stands and saw me wearing that stupid get-up, I don't know if I could face them again.

Let the players look like MEN!

This was a nationally televised game and we have Casey F-ing Martin picking out the Uni's. The main purpose for the extravagant uniforms is to help recruiting and national exposure. This was going to be one of the best games to show off the new uniforms nationally. We should have went with one of the flashy combos like the yellow and black.

What happened to the players picking them?

Be glad it wasn't pink, like the Ems wear on a weekly basis (Even if it is for a noble cause!).

They looked like something out of the movie Starship Troopers or something. It will be interesting to see the throwback uni's against Cal.

Are we for sure getting throwbacks or are these just rumors? No one has been able to prove we are getting them with a credible source.

OK, that's it. We have a product design studio, interior design studio, arts department and 600 architecture students at UO. Just ask one of them to walk over an color coordinate the Unis. last weeks combo was aweful and the numbre are still unreadable in person.

Kill the green jerseys. Let's get to high contract colors.

After watching the replay on TV, the pants almost looked a shade of "green"?!? Maybe the rain made them look darker?!? In person they looked horrible with the shirts/lids, but on TV they almost looked *good*...

I cant wait to see the black/yellow/black... maybe against WSU (night game)?!?

Jerseys were alright. Not awful, but there are plenty of better combinations.

The three different colors was terrible. Carbon lids would have been much better, IMO.

During the highlights on ESPN later that night, while showing the Utah fumble return for td, one of the talking heads said the Ute was just trying to get away from the ugly uniforms. :lol:
