Much like its play on the field, Oregon has had a rich history of being at the forefront of college football uniform innovation. And much like this year's iteration of the team, the new uniforms released by Nike seem as though to be trying too hard while somehow accomplishing less than in the recent past. You can find a full photo gallery of the new duds HERE, but before we dig into the new fall line, let's look back at Oregon and Nike's past innovations. I'll be ranking these on a scale of 0 (Grellow Garbage) to 10 (Sartorial Perfection)
Now, there are plenty of things not to like about these: that side strip is 1000% too thick, the dark green shoulders on a black jersey isn't the best color combination (something Nike didn't take note of until the first wings kit in 2008).
