Uni-Watch: NCAA Edition

How big is Uni Watch's latest back-to-school survey of college football uniform changes? Let's put it this way: There are 120 FBS schools, and nearly half of them are mentioned in the column you're about to read. It may constitute the single largest batch of college football uni information ever gathered in one place.

 

And still more info will come later this week, when Nike unveils its latest Pro Combat alternate uniforms. You may recall the Pro Combat program from last year (the designs with the weird shoulder stitching, remember?). The promotion was apparently so successful that Nike's doing it again this year. The 10 teams this time around, each of which will wear the special threads for at least one game, are Alabama, Boise State, Florida, Miami, Ohio State, Oregon State, Pitt, TCU, Virginia Tech, and West Virginia. No word yet on the specific designs or exactly when they'll be worn, but a big unveiling is slated for this Wednesday, so Uni Watch will provide full coverage later in the week.

The guy looks like a total geek, but he did some great research here. I'm surprised so many universities change or update their jerseys so often. Most are just subtle changes, and most still look awful (the typography for Utah State pains me) but it's a cool little feature. My favorite jerseys are the same as the article, Navy. At least for the upgraded change. That'll probably change to Oregon State's Pro Combat uni, I love their color scheme.
