I hate to be "that guy", but is it just me or do the all orange home unis not match? The shirt and the pants are two different shades of orange, its especially noticeable on the utsports website where Fulton is wearing it.

Should have demoted Dooley to color coordinator, IMO.

I feel like a little kid waiting for Christmas, Easter, my birthday, the 4th of July, and the last day of school and they are all on the same day!

They've sold grey on orange apparel for a couple of years in JC Pennies at East town. Legit Adidas stuff. My wife and I we're discussing how good it looked one day, but I'll openly admit....I never pictured it on a uni. That's completely absolutely badass!

I've owned a dark grey t-shirt with the big orange power T on the front for a while now. Got it from Champs. They were trying to tell us something! New unis are badass!

Really like the new unis. White on white is my favorite too. Curious which we will use in the Oregon game.

Not complaining about the gray unis. I'm old. I still like them. I keep hearing that we have used gray before and that it is an official color. Anyone know since when? I know Majors experimented with gray around the numbers. I know of no other instance in football of using gray. Never heard of it being an official color until today.

Someone in another thread said something about 1914 and being undefeated.

Butch said the 1914 team which won a national championship wore gray jerseys.

Edit: Err "went undefeated."

Why again???? For years I hollered unis mattered and a few other posters agreed. Most of you are on this bandwagon now after seeing it's not bad at all. I know the poster Orange & White was adamant about doing Orange and Grey. Our own blasted him. Now they see what it looks like. :)

I can't speak for everyone. But it personally seems pretty condescending when you always make it out that everyone is out to get you and always wrong. Just seems like you are always trying to remind folks how you are always right. Just my perception. Maybe I'm all alone here.

Love the uni and I am in the old farts club. Wish it was the one they wore all the time. Never have liked the orange on orange. Like the all white and the split just fine. But this new one is big time stuff. Loved watching the team's reaction. That should tell everybody all they need to know.

I like the new one and will not hesitate to spend some cash to buy a couple when they are released. Only thing I would like to see is a gray helmet to match it. Still have the Orange T on it, I think it would tie it all together.

Myself and at least one or two others have also expressed this opinion. Lets see now what did I do with Butch's number... :) but seriously gray helmets with this would be insane.

LOL. That's a weak out of conference schedule when it includes where I got my undergraduate degree (King).

Interesting history, though.

Lol, yes it is. But I bet Bama, ND, Texas, etc played cupcakes then too. The wins over Clem$on and Louisville were indeed nice.
