this list has less to do with the actual uniform than with the identity of the team.

Penn State? Really? They have a middle school uniform. So any time I see Penn State on any "best uniform" list, I know it's more about the school, not the actual uni.

Maybe I'm the outlier here, but I love the simplicity and look of Penn State/Notre Dame/Michigan uni's. Michigan's helmets don't do much for me, but the jersey/pant combo is so fresh and so cleanclean

I love Penn St unis for the same reason I like Auburn' s. That deep shade of blue makes the white pop so much.

I would like ours way better if we wore purple more. I really hate white jerseys. Of course, of all the white jersey uniforms, ours are absolutely the best but I would still like to not wear them as much.

Oregon unis look good when they wear dark green like back in the Joey Harrington days.

Not the worst list i've seen, but i don't get how OU and Boise State are even mentioned on this list.

Penn state basically wears junior high scrimmage uniforms.

I agree that I like the blue color of Penn States jerseys, but they literally don't have anything else. No contrast stripes, no third color, no helmet logo. Nothing. Auburn at least has blue and orange.

You can like the colors, but Penn State has a middle school uni.

Those unis are what you'd expect a prison team to wear.


But I thought the prisoners wore black/red and the guards wore blue/white?

I don't understand TCU or Oregon or Boise St. Nothing they have is a 'staple' that would forever be recognizable. Navy is ok, but frankly, I think Army's black knights uni's are better and more recognizable. I like Clemson's, but they're probably too highly ranked for me.

whoever said FSU should not be in the conversation is an idiot.

Miami is too low. Nebraska is too low. Washington is too high.

GA Tech has better unis than a few of these named here. The old Pitt unis were legit. Syracuse (just orange; not with the "S"). Wisconsin is pretty good

what other schools have yellowish helmets?


I'm sure that Oregon has a helmet for each shade of yellow.

Correct. I'd actually list Penn Stats's uniforms as one of the worst.

Miami's uniforms are horrible. The orange/green combo is awful and the U helmet logo, while recognizable, has zero to do with their mascot.

One uni that's way too low is Georgia, which has a great combo of red, black, siler, and white and the oval G on the helmet. It's one of the very best.

I really can't believe Kansas State isn't on the list. The purple/silver combo is awesome and they have a cool wildcat logo on the helmet.

This list is too skewed toward big name teams rather than actual uniforms.
