New Unis for Bama Game

I like them. I still think there is potential to create much nicer, classic looking alternates. It is also reported that the helmets will receive new paint to make the wings pop and the helmet numbers will be removed after the Bama game

Yeah those are sick
They'll probably get $59.99 from me when they sell the jersey. The gloves are nice too.
Didn't really like what they did alternatively last year. This one is a lot better

I have less of a problem with alterations to the away jersey in general and this game is so high profile it's a good opportunity to attract recruits. I'm glad the helmet numbers are going away, though. That's Bama's thing and it distracts from the wings, which are our thing.

The numbers will be on the helmet for the Bama game and then get "suspended"

Not a drastic change, but "innocuously tasteful" IMO......I just want to see some out of the box concepts (not to be worn, but to be seen) to grasp how creative Adidas is, because I think they are deficient.

I was opposed to the special unis until a few months after the UTL. Those unis definitely added to experience. Even the Sugar Bowl unis were nice.
These could either be a fond memory or disappear forever. Thats a fair risk.

They’re cool. I liked the Sugar Bowl uniform’s more though.
I know I’m probably in the minority on this but I would like the grey facemask’s to stay. It’s a really nice look IMO.

Not bad. Ditch the maize stripe and they'd be perfect road uniforms.

Is it safe to say these were somewhat inspired by these?

I agree CWEBB. The new designs do look like the Dallas Cowboys uniforms. I don't like them.

Do not like. Get rid of the maize shoulders and make it a solid white. I know i'm boring but less is more and what's wrong with tradition. At least it's not as bad as the clown uniforms from last year.

I'd rather look like Michigan and not the Dalals Cowboys. I don't care much because it is our away uniform. If it's our home uni, I'd go ballistic.

I don’t really like the idea of getting new alternates every year. I was kind of hoping the SB uniforms and a blue version of them would just become part of a rotation we would wear every season, and then every couple of years we could update or get new alternates.

Those are pretty nice. Definetly like them better than last years alternates.

It's not as if Nike's alternative uniforms (for other schools) are any better.
