Tweaking a uniform is one thing - a total revamping each year is something else (and Oregon is the ONLY one who gets away with this) - there is no greater evidence of this than 30 miles east of here...
Oregon can get away with it because their brand is the "O" and their colors are green and yellow. They use every derivative imaginable of those colors and are not ashamed to incorporate "accent" colors, often making them primary.

Helmet looks good
Uniforms are AWFUL.
Re: Offseason Uniform Thread
I think they look fine. I like how the helmet stripe narrows to points in the front.
Re: Offseason Uniform Thread
Seems relevant to this thread (and the occasional discussion about alternate black uniforms):

I like their new uniforms better than their old ones, but I like their old U-State logo better than the new one.
Several teams have been going gray. Apparently gray is the new black.
I don't see how that logo is an upgrade.
Re: Offseason Uniform Thread
The new logo isn't bad. Makes the "state" more prominent so it would be easier to see I guess.
Old logo

The helmet is pretty awesome though.
Re: Offseason Uniform Thread
I like their old logo better because "state" fits inside the "U" which makes the outline of the old logo simple. The new logo looks like they cut out the center to add "state." It just doesn't appear unified like their old one, if that makes any sense.
I thought their old logo was unique with the vertical "state." The new one looks like they copied Mississippi State, Iowa State, and even Oklahoma State.

That was probably the point. They are trying to be to Utah what MSU, ISU, and OSU are to their states. Part of it is having the look. The problem with the previous logo is that the word "state" is too small to read. Now, it pops out to the reader. That is partly why those three have done it too I would think.

I agree. The word "state" was too small in the previous logo. I like the NEW Utah St logo much better than the old. And by the way, those new blue helmets look great.

Re: Offseason Uniform Thread
Looks a lot like Nevada's unis, I like the new logo with the state more prominent, not the biggest fan of the unis though, I didnt think the old ones were that bad.
Re: Offseason Uniform Thread
They could have did a better job of making the State look like it wasn't just a photo that they pasted on top of a big U. Kinda looks like some Microsoft paint work to me.

I agree. I think that's why I don't like the logo. It's not continuous with the U.

I can't believe we finally agreed on something.
Re: Offseason Uniform Thread
Utah St had a lot of hype for such a lame logo.
