Saturday CFB uni gameday thread begins here
so, with the return of the SEC, means a return of a lot of traditional looks. For as good as a football conference as they are tho, they are reasonably mid from a uniforms standpoint.
OOOOH okay I just noticed that Auburn has these arm sleeves that match their stripe pattern and that got me up and out of my seat.
people forget that Kentucky generally lives on the safe side of the “doing too much” scale, but Auburn looks solid and the Cats have just* the right amount of busy
sneaky upset good matchup is UCF-ECU and the Knights are losing badly. That's a reasonable 123, but we've seen so much better from them that their basic look is just kinda boring now.

As for ECU, this is a fantastic usage of a shiny helmet to spruce up an otherwise tame look
they have what we like to call the 'ravens package' when it comes to their lettering and numbers
Louisville/Pittsburgh is an obvious multi-level abomination. from both teams, with like MAYBE one salvageable note independently.

One, Pittsburgh, I'm just never going to understand this. The helmets have a decently cool logo tho, masked by I dunno, actual paint splashes
secondly, the only thing redeemable about this Cardinals combo is the script L on their pants is pretty strong
Georgia Southern/Louisiana-Lafayette is good mid-major uni matchup. Numbers on helmets are always fun.

The Cajuns all-red looks surprisingly good, and that double stripe kinda matches the motif of the double stacked text on the helmet, which pleases me, balancewise.
Louisville/Pitt is straight up unwatchable. Zero chance I could keep those two looks on my screen longer than 5 minutes.
Ga Tech/Syracuse is pretty fun. These is the Jackets basic look, which I enjoy and the blue jerseys are the better of the Orange's two base setups.

good pairing for sure
yeah I mean, they're ugly and it's not even about the colors per se, which are not great. Again, poor use of paint splatter, awful number/name fonts and in general just not that fly https://twitter.com/apex_perihelion/status/1309907963163766784?s=20
lowkey fire matchup is FIU-Liberty. We have a double multi-lettered helmet scenario.

the Flames introducing the matte red was a surprise to me and I like that alternating stripe patters

also, this gold leaf look from the Panthers is genuinely elegant, too
also, check out this guy. (I think I could use a white face mask with these helmets)
actual "game I'll keep on because the whole situation just looks good today" is, perhaps surprisingly, App St-Campbell.

App St still makes me feel like I'm watching the Under Armour AA game, but that alternating turf color and bold endzone are strong, and the Camels look clean
as an aside, the Pac-12 returning to the fray is an absolutely vital part of the gameday uniform discussion.
it's not bad. I like it when deployed well, as is the case with today's jerseys https://twitter.com/jdbarnes8/status/1309917841727131649?s=20
TCU is flatly an elite uniform program. GREAT look here.

Excellent fonting with the combo outline AND fill in black on the numbers https://twitter.com/nick_ohlig/status/1309920712518332417
haha my man, for me, this isn't correct. I think the numbers at the very least could use an outline and the face masks should probably be white. too many naked items for greatness

It's an excellent base for something that needs refining to get to superb https://twitter.com/garystriewski/status/1309922189634928640?s=20
also @cwdarney wants you all to see the UVA field today. They have a strong look going against Duke later, too https://twitter.com/uvafootball/status/1309624828991856640
dont love the number font personally, but UVA’s ensemble is solid overall. Excellent helmet.
god I can't get over how good these TCU jobbies look in action. And the matchup is really striking too.

two QUALITY neckline situations, with the Horned Frogs being slightly more involved and creative, but no slouch from the Cyclones
and this little addition, presumably from the band leader, is splendid
UTEP bringing the major heat. The belt color is a good choice https://twitter.com/utepfb/status/1309936312363827200
