I don't wanna get pelted with tomatoes or anything but with the way that home jersey looks, for the first time maybe ever I wanna see O/B/B.
Possibly an unpopular opinion in this forum, but if comparing those two pictures, give me the bottom jerseys all day....cleaner and more modern at the same time.Is it just me or is it a different shade of blue & orange? Lighting?

I hope we don't. Very hard to make it look good, especially with an orange helmet.I doubt we even get an orange jersey.
100% agree. Last year’s kits were way better.Possibly an unpopular opinion in this forum, but if comparing those two pictures, give me the bottom jerseys all day....cleaner and more modern at the same time.
This seems like a "new" jersey for newness sake, not because it's materially better, IMO. Not sure this change needed to be years in the works.

Silence is golden in such matters.I don't know how to explain to you guys that you don't need to care about Syracuse football.
The "Conference Realignment" thread takes the smarter perspective in this regard (and no others).I don't know how to explain to you guys that you don't need to care about Syracuse football.
Thank you. I couldn’t figure out why the 9’s looked bad for some reason. Also I for some reason the number don’t works for me on the sleeve but I’m not a fan of it on the front.My thoughts
1. Definitely an upgrade
2. Loving the navy jersey
3. The white jerseys are growing on me
4. Those 9s need bottoms
5. Need to figure out a way the differentiate our jerseys more from Syracuse
I hope that the numeral font doesn't carry over to any basketball uni upgrade.A lot to like here:
- helmet is an improvement overall; gloss just looks better for us (maybe it's an orange thing, I dunno), but the return of a matching stripe is very welcome
- outlines on numbers - thank god
- I, personally, like the shoulder stripes. Tough development for the "Death Before Syracuse" contingent that inhabits these parts.
- Pants stripes - good to have them back, they look good
Negatives:
- the number font: remains terrible! am guessing we did not have the ability to go outside of the rebrand here
- Block I on helmet and collar AND pants? Overkill. I guess this is finally the moment where The Shield goes gently into that good night
- we don't need white pants
Don’t bother trying.I don't know how to explain to you guys that you don't need to care about Syracuse football.
Eh, agree to disagree. Our away uniforms were so plain as to be a bit of a joke, and our pants should have the stripe. The number outlines alone make the orange numbers on the white look a million times more professional. I don’t love the shoulder stripes, but these are absolutely better than the old whites.The helmet is an improvement. Everything else is a downgrade. Shoulder stripes are awful. Previous set is way better.
The problem with the old set wasn’t the home ones, which were fine (though white numbers looks so much better than orange). It was the away uniforms, especially when we wore white pants, that looked so plain that they seemed to be tossed together at the last moment … there’s literally no design to them and hardly any blue at all.Possibly an unpopular opinion in this forum, but if comparing those two pictures, give me the bottom jerseys all day....cleaner and more modern at the same time.
