New Iowa Blackout Uniforms

It's going to be a very sad day when Kirk Ferentz is considered cutting edge when compared to Paul Rhoads. But this alternate uniform for Iowa is putting him one step closer.

I just cringe when I think what ISU could be doing with its marketing versus what it is currently doing. Very big missed opportunity.
 
Nebraska too...Hawks are trying to keep up with their favorite rival.

God, those are bad. Adidas does such a crappy job with alt. uniforms. Nike will have a miss here and there, but overall, they do alt. unis so well.
 
Can everyone here quit acting like they aren't jealous? We'd love to have vague announcement about an alternate uniform that got the players excited like this. And one that wasn't from the flippin' 30's. Something 21st century would be nice for once.
One that note,I did like the old unis that you cranked out a couple years ago- better than our old ones that were worn.
 
It's funny how Iowa fans continuously point out ISU "ripping off" USC (when it's not true) when Iowa themselves have been ripping off the Pittsburgh Steelers for decades (and Old Raisinface has admitted as much).

It's a laugher every time an Iowa fan brings this up.

Curious to see the design. I'm usually supportive of alternate looks and wish we would follow suit
 
Does that video actually show anything?

I saw someone puttting on a wrist sweatband that looks like one I had in 1980.

Looks like it'll be gold numbers on black jersey with no outline, which would be pretty cool. Also looks like it'll say "Iowa" across the chest, which would be pretty lame. Was hoping they'd go with matte black helmets, doesn't look like that'll happen. We usually whiff badly on stuff like this, hopefully we don't again.
 
After adjusting the contrast it shows more. And the helmet worn here is the usual one, not the helmet that will be worn, so maybe it'll be matte black after all.

Real impressive design work to create an all-black uniform for a team that already has black helmets and black jerseys, I bet Nike had to put their top guys on this project.

I heard it was designed internally, not by Nike.
