Oregon Ducks Winged Uniforms: It Happened

17 11 2008

blackducksunisAs had been previously speculated on a certain informative, exciting and handsome website (ahem … nikeblog.com), the fashionistas of football the Oregon Ducks unveiled their new Nike black and feather uniforms Saturday, in a defensively-challenged affair at Autzen Stadium. As part of Oregon’s “blackout” Saturday, the Ducks wore black helmets, the black winged jerseys, and black pants. I could take or leave the wings, but the jerseys’ font and number-coloring are pretty rad against the black. The gunmetal black helmet is pretty cool as well. The Photo is by Mike Perrault of the Oregon Daily Emerald.

After a week of kicking this around I finally realized what bothers me so much about the wings: they’re really, really emo. Every time I look at them I hear Dashboard Confessional playing in my head. Is crying oneself to sleep while thinking about unrequited love the hot, new style that’s going to bring the recruits a running?

Oh, and one last thing. The pervading rumor for the last couple of weeks is a complete uniform revamp for Oregon in 2010. Keep your eyes glued to this space for updates as they come.

I was there. The wings are nice, but the number on the jerseys suck.

All parties involved with the Oregon uniforms should be taken to the 50 yard line at halftime and beaten inot a coma with a nine iron.
