Re: Not A Creature was Stirring, Not Even A Laker Fan !
As good a thread as any.
How about some opinions on this. I love Plattsburgh's road uni's but never get to see them as I'm unable to travel for the away games. Anybody know for sure how the tradition started, and why? Contrast for viewers makes the most sense to me for when all we had was black and white TV. I can also see where an opponents uni's are similar, that lack of contrast could be a problem, but I'd be in favor of a tradition change here.

Always loved the Cards road reds. Prior to 1995 or so the team used blue as an accent color and I thought it was a great look. This year's "Throwback" uni will look similar to that worn from about 1984-89. I also love the classic look used by Middlebury. Obviously, I dislike the green/gold and maroon/gold combinations !!

I absolutely hate our road jerseys. The crest/logo on the front is not a good look. Our womens' team actually has a really good road jersey. A simple black jersey, with ADRIAN across the front, the paw print underneath, and gold numbers. I'd prefer the guys go to that as well.FERRIS STATE UNIVERSITY: 2012 FROZEN FOUR

For a hockey reference, look at last year's Winter Classic: http://www.foxsports.com/content/dam....medium.11.jpg
EDIT: I now see the article references USC/UCLA. My bad.
EDIT: And the Winter Classic. Probably should've read it in its entirety before I posted.Last edited by NU Pastime; 11-16-2014, 08:15 AM.Norwich '13

As for this year, I really like the men's white jerseys which they wore at Geneseo and Brockport. Nice mix of white and grey, though the POTSDAM lettering on the chest is quite bland.Russell Jaslow
