Black Out Alternate Uniforms Confirmed for Cy-Hawk
- Thread starter 2D
- Start date
Assume helmets will only have the Tiger Hawk on one side.
If Campbell was there yet he would have his team blacked out too.
If you slow down the video, you'll see a small glimpse of the front jersey numbers, and they appear to be grey. These could be a fully blacked out uniform.
Didn't we wear similar against Ohio State in 2017?
They usually only do that (the red white and blue one) on the right side only for Veterans day weekend. Maybe with this being the 9/11 weekend but I don't think they've done that in the past.
No. Those were a totally different uni with grey trimmed sleeves and stripes down the side of the pants. The helmet was totally different in grey with the mini letter I's all over the surface of the helmet. Probably the best alt uniform we've had.
Why do we need them for Clown College? Save them for a game that means something
Not the best tease video I've ever seen. That's 18 seconds I'll never get back.
BTW: Not a fan of any alt unis, which are another result of too much money. You have school colors. You have tradition. Respect both. IMHO, of course.
We really do need to wear red and yellow against them someday.

If they do one sided it's likely for the band member.
Looks like we are wearing the school colors. Not following the logic.Not the best tease video I've ever seen. That's 18 seconds I'll never get back.

Likely the set up for tomorrow. Pretty lame.
Each game is a chance to add 1 to the W column. They all mean that.
Unless they strip the helmets to plain black like they did back in the day, and when Fry passed away.....
Yes. And beating Albany earns as much standing as beating OSU or Michigan, right?
Careful, the forum midwit rejects will post their essays on why every win is equal when they aren't.
Wins are equally important but some loses mean more than others. What's worse/better ....beating Albany and losing to OSU or beating OSU and losing to Albany?

Disagree. I think it will be a good look. I definitely like the solid black pants, rather than the black pants we’ve worn in the past, with the large gold stripe.
I wouldn’t think of it as a true “black-out” uniform, but rather a variation of the standard look, which is what I think they should be doing anyway. Teams should stay on-brand. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have more than two variations of your uniform. For Iowa, it could be any combination of black, white, or gold jerseys and pants (though I didn’t end up loving the gold jerseys we wore up at Minny a couple of years ago … but it was a cool thing to try).

SMH.
It's pretty sad how some fans continue to try to redirect with this crap, rather than simply acknowledging their inappropriate behavior
My understanding is the uniform is all black with gray numbers. My response was to that report.
The school colors are black AND gold. That's the logic. It's not complicated.
Well, for one thing, Iowa NEVER wears yellow. It wears gold. The school colors are black and gold. You could even look it up on the U of I website and discover the technical details of the exact shade of gold, NOT yellow. OMG.
Thank you for the gentle correction. Post has been updated.
The point still stands.
Agreed on the gray. I hope that report is wrong. Uniforms should stay on-brand.
The Wonderful World of SUI Colors – Black & Golden.
Truth is – I’m old enough to remember when most American families moved from black-and-white television to the wonderful world of color. You see, color makes a true difference in people…

I guess I was being too literal in my interpretation of "meaning something", haha
