ISU should really just drop the two/three stripe look. Its been done by pretty much everyone and offers nothing for establishing a unique brand. I said it earlier in the thread, but something like the Trice stripes would be great for ISU. They are a unique design element in the college football world, while also having a tie into our past. It isnt overly flashy like Oregon or Baylor, and not overly busy like Maryland. At the same time we dont have the history and tradition of Bama or OU to go with a simple 2 colors and numbers on the side of the helmet.

I slightly modified this concept from earlier in the thread (credit ISUalum2012 for the original). The Trice stripes on the pants now come down from the hip instead of up from the knee, the shadow stripes go all the way down the front of the jersey, and I included numbers on the shoulders. I liked the original concept because, like I said earlier, it moves us away from the two/three stripe design that we have used for half a century. Something like this would help set us apart from every other school.
Makes such good sense in every way we probably won't consider it.
