New Uniforms Revealed

My only problem with our chrome cardinal and I cant believe I am saying this, because Im not a "Color Shade complainer" usually, but I think our chrome as seen in the bottom pic is too light and should be darker more like the top pic.

That's the difference between a picture taken at night and another taken on a sunny day.

And the Iowa game is during the day, so the cardinal chrome is going to look almost pinkish. Put that up against our true cardinal jersey's, and it will be a total joke. And yes I mean "joke", because likely we will be made fun of the following week for rolling out the ugliest uniforms of the week.

While it may be lighting in these 2 pics, I still think our shade of chrome cardinal doesn't match the rest of our uniforms, its too much of a bright red, like what we used to have. While I don't care what shade of "red/cardinal" we go with, we need to have them all be the same shade, especially when we wear them at the same time.
While I like chrome aspects, I just think our shade is off, I think maybe we need to actually make it darker than the rest because being chrome actually brightens it up more and makes it look lighter.

Chrome red most certainly does not need to “match” the uniform red. It just needs to complement it.

I would love to see us beat Iowa wearing old school cardinal and gold uniforms.

It does look sexy...

Anyone else pick up the black replica uniform? I thought it looked good enough to warrant a purchase.Still wish it was a number that had some weight (32; 18; 15) but I was impressed with it. Best team in the state to wear black.
 
This FOX tweet on retro Big 12 logos got me thinking ()

I would love to see use use walking Cy on a helmet/uni combo this year. (white helmet would be good for it).

Baylor has done it (https://www.uniswag.com/blog/baylor-retro-look)

OSU has Pete (https://www.si.com/college-football/2015/08/03/oklahoma-state-football-pistol-pete-helmet-photos)

WV did it (http://landgrantgauntlet.com/2018/1...ss-in-the-big-12-throwback-helmets-road-unis/)

would love to see it at some point. Hope we get a surprise this year

The only way I hope we're wearing chrome helmets against Iowa is if we go Chrome-W-W, and tell Iowa to wear their home uniforms. Any chrome helmet with a cardinal jersey would look just awful, and I don't want to see us wear black against Iowa.
This is a possibility I thought of when they posted those helmets. It isn't unprecedented either. A few years ago ISU wore road jerseys in JTS and Iowa wore their home blacks.
