Gotta say, I like the uniforms, but that helmet is butt ugly. They look like zubaz pants.

I mean I really don't want to say it, but those uniforms are pretty sharp looking.

Jersey numbers aren't a solid color. NCAA says that's a problem.

"'Jerseys must have clearly visible, permanent Arabic numerals measuring at least 8 and 10 inches in height front and back, respectively, and be of one solid color that itself is clearly in distinct contrast with the color of the jersey, irrespective of any border around the number.' This rule goes into effect for Football Bowl Subdivision teams in 2013."

Miami sucks.

I remember last season one team had to go back and change jerseys because the refs couldn't discern the numbers on them. 

I see that Buffalo also has new duds in line with their new/renewed image as SUNY-Buffalo (notice the photos were by Jason Arkley.)

I've always said that it's not the clothes but the talent in them.  Unies can get a team psyched up, but if the talent isn't there, it doesn't matter.

I don't understand the design of the helmets? I feel like they should have used feathers or something. I am usually all for crazy uniforms but I can not get behind this one for 3 reasons: 1. It's Miami. 2. They are ugly. and 3. It's Miami

Uniforms aren't bad but that helmet......what exactly is going on there? 

Is it supposed to be feathers? Or something else?

It's looks like they flung paint all over it and slapped some stickers on the front and back.

I guess the NCAA turned down their request for the jerseys to have a collar (or two)

This is all about recruiting. As I heard James Franklin at Vanderbilt say, "Can't believe how many kids pick a school based on a helmet."

This is coming from a big Oregon Ducks fan but I just do not care of these new Miami unis.  

Makes me appreciate the clean simplicity of ours.  But I think that fits our style more as a university.

What position do the guys in baseball caps play?  Maybe that's M^%$#'s way to cut down on defenders leading with their heads?

Can someone with photoshop capability please grab the picture of the jersey showing the top of the Shoulder pad and change the M to "F",    Heck, might as well do the helmet as well.

I threw up in my mouth a little when I saw those uniforms.  I think College Football uniforms have officially "jumped the shark"....Terrible..
